Episode 18: Resource Management

In this episode Michael and our guest Prashant Jain talk about
patterns for resource management. Efficient management of resources
is critical in the execution of any kind of software. Ranging from
embedded software in a mobile device to software in a large
enterprise server, it is important that the resources, such as
memory, threads, file handles, or network connections, are managed
efficiently to allow the systems to function properly and
effectively. Michael and Prashant discuss various patterns, such as
Lazy Acquisition, Caching, Leasing and Evictor and explain when,
why, and how to apply them for effective resource management.
