process memory allocation
Hello all. I have been assigned a school project on detecting memory leaks in linux processes. I am reading.. but have found it hard and inefficient to go through the very vast documentation not knowing what to really look for. Could you please give me some guidelines on this subject?
Cheers,

This might be a starting point: Valgrind

Ok then, thanks for the hint. Next task in the very useful direction that you have pointed me : how do I simulate the execution of a program? any resources on that?

sorry for not being more precisely: I need to make a program that simulates the execution of another ... just like valgrind does from scratch. Something about how it would be achieved, theory, books or anything would be useful.
