Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
An application program (such as a database) is responsive to a value (also called externally-set global value) that defines the amount of memory to be used by the application program for functions (such as queries) performed by the application program. In one embodiment a sequence of instructions (also , called "memory broker") uses the externally-set global value to compute one or more internal values that are then used when allocating memory .The memory broker dynamically revises the internal value(s) based on memory being allocated for the functions, thereby to form a feedback loop.

Why it's free to use
- Filed September 30, 2002 and granted January 22, 2013. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 30, 2022.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 30, 2024.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
