What should be done when an OutOfMemoryError occurs?

Answer from AI
In the event of an OutOfMemoryError in embedded systems or IoT devices, it is necessary to:
- Check and optimize memory usage in the application, reduce the volume of allocated objects.
- Use memory profiling to identify leaks or excessive consumption.
- Limit or redistribute tasks to reduce peak memory load.
- Increase the available memory volume if hardware allows.
- Implement error handling to respond correctly to memory shortages and avoid crashes.
Example: if a device collects data from sensors and stores it in an array, a fixed-size circular buffer can be implemented to avoid accumulating an infinite amount of data.
