Method of managing memory in an integrated circuit card and corresponding integrated circuit card

Abstract

A method of managing memory in an integrated circuit card comprising a non-volatile memory portion and a RAM memory portion, the method comprising creating in a non-volatile memory heap one or more array pointers, corresponding to one or more transient arrays to be allocated, each array pointer comprising a transient array size and a transient array address, wherein the creating comprises creating one or more array pointers comprising as transient array address a logical address of the area of the RAM memory portion in which the respective transient array is to be allocated, and assigning then in the RAM memory area memory only to transient arrays, corresponding to the respective one or more array pointers, which comprise at least a value different from zero.
