The beginnings of many implementations may be found in common programming literature; some of these are given below. Note that none of these are complete implementations of a Pool; most of these leave some aspects of a Pool as a user exercise. However, in each case, even though some aspects are missing, these examples use the same underlying concept of a Simple Segregated Storage described in this document. </p> <div class="orderedlist"><ol class="orderedlist" type="1"> <li class="listitem"> <span class="emphasis"><em>The C++ Programming Language</em></span>, 3rd ed., by Bjarne Stroustrup, Section 19.4.2.
