Method and system for handling data values and structure in a memory

An embedded system comprising at least one processor and memory, wherein the memory comprises executable code for operating the embedded system and a data structure for storing data, and wherein the embedded system comprises a serializer for writing data to the data structure and a deserializer for reading the data from the data structure, wherein the serializer is configured to:

• receive from the executable code, with i ranging from 1 to a first maximum number of data:
• the size, Si, of a data, Di, the size Si corresponding to a number of chunks, Dij, forming the data Di, with j ranging from 1 to Si;
• and
• for each data Di, the value for each of the chunks Dij;
• form a first series of bytes, obtained through concatenation of successively Si and Dij, with j ranging from 1 to Si, for i ranging from 1 to the first maximum number of data;
• calculate a total size, Stot, as the sum of bytes in the formed first series of bytes, plus R bytes, R being a predetermined number of bytes;
• and
• write to the memory, successively Stot on R bytes and the formed first series of bytes, thereby forming the data structure, and
• wherein the deserializer is configured to:
• read from the memory, successively a total size S′tot on first R bytes, and a second series of bytes on next (S′tot−R) bytes;
• deconcatenate the second series of bytes into successively a size, S′i, of a data, D′i, the size S′i corresponding to a number of chunks, D′ij, forming the data D′i, with j ranging from 1 to S′i, and values of the chunks D′ij for the data D′i, with i ranging from 1 to a second maximum number of data;
• and
• send to the executable code, the size S′i of each data D′i, and for each data D′i, the values for each of the chunks D′ij forming the data D′i, with j ranging from 1 to S′i, for all i respectively.
