Right, I can imagine if you wrap memory allocation correctly you can do that. But CPUs have finite memory, so a program can guess where it sits in the real physical memory, and from that derive a potential list of programs that already exist. You can probably even run profiling and figure out _what_ other software is running, by their allocation totals.
- jhardy54 6y agoI'd be interested in how feasible this would be. Even tiny address spaces like 256 bytes have tons of potential ways to fill it (factors): a process could have : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, or even 256 bytes. How do you identify which are running?
