Abstract
A program conversion apparatus that converts a source program to an executable program, the source program including a first descriptor indicating dynamic memory allocation. The program conversion apparatus includes a specifying unit and a generating unit. The specifying unit specifies in the source program a reference descriptor that is last to be executed from reference descriptors indicating references to memory allocated by the first descriptor. The generating unit generates an instruction for freeing the allocated memory at a position in the executable program immediately following an instruction that corresponds to the specified reference descriptor.
