A method of allocating a memory for driving a neural network including obtaining first capacity information of a space to store an input feature map of a first layer from among the layers of the neural network, and second capacity information of a space to store an output feature map of the first layer, and allocating a first storage space to store the input feature map in the memory based on an initial address value of the memory and the first capacity information and a second storage space to store the output feature map in the memory based on a last address value of the memory and the second capacity information.
