ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for memory management in a computing environment are provided. The method comprises uniquely identifying a first object associated with a first task for an application executed in a computing environment, wherein a first area of memory is allocated to the first object; determining a first execution scope for the first task according to a first execution context associated with the first task, wherein the first context defines a first life expectancy for the first task within the execution environment hierarchy; determining a change in execution scope of the first task, in response to monitoring the first execution context; and deallocating the first area of memory, in response to determining that the first task is no longer executed within the first execution scope.
