Abstract
A method for managing an image memory in an embedded device is provided. A node is obtained from a linked list of the image memory. It is judged whether valid data is present in a memory block corresponding to the node. When no valid data is present, it is judged whether valid data is present in a memory block corresponding to a previous node of the node. When valid data is present in the previous node, it is further judged whether the valid data is movable. When the valid data is movable, memory block information described in the two nodes is exchanged, and the valid data previously stored in the memory block corresponding to the previous node is moved to the memory block corresponding to the node.
