Abstract
A system supports allocating buffer storage for multiple buffers from a common storage area and dynamically reconfiguring the common storage area to shift buffer storage between buffers. A buffer mechanism controls access to buffer storage allocated within the common storage area. An allocation mechanism changes buffer storage allocation by moving one or more boundary pointers after verification that the reconfiguration is valid. The system provides more efficient use of memory and can allow a smaller memory requirement than conventional systems with fixed buffer storage sizes.
