One of our guys went to an ACM conference in 1977 and came back with
this paper.  It was the answer to our memory problems on the Univac
1108, the CDC 7600, and later the IBM 370.

Only the first page is readable, the rest is behind paywall,
unfortunately.

I converted the memory allocation scheme from a common block in 1992 ???
to using the C malloc, realloc, and free library functions.  Worked like
a champ on Unix, Vax VMS, IBM mainframes, and PC DOS using various F77
compilers.

If you're already using dynamic allocation, then you can of course
keep on doing what you are doing.  It will not be officially
supported, but the likelyhood of this continuing to work is high
(no guarantees, though).
