Embedded programmers have three places to store data: global, the heap, and the stack.

Stack and heap memory must be allocated statically by the programmer but calculating the space required is notoriously difficult for all but the smallest embedded systems.

Eventually, the Java heap will be full, which means that an allocating thread is unable to find a large-enough consecutive section of free memory for the object it wants to allocate.

When you create a new object in Java,aClass a = new aClass();memory is dynamically allocated on the process's heap to store the object instance. A reference to this object is created on the stack ...
