Abstract:
A method of managing an integrated circuit memory includes having an integrated circuit card with a memory space including memory space regions for storing user profile data. The memory space is partitioned into segments of memory space regions, where the segments of memory space regions includes allocated regions and empty regions. From the empty regions, the biggest empty region of the memory space is selected. The selected biggest empty region is widened by moving memory blocks positioned in a subset of allocated regions that are at boundaries of the selected biggest empty region into other available empty regions.
