Intent to show running background processes

Intent to show running background processes

I have an application that sometimes hits the OutOfMemoryError due to
processing a large number of bitmaps. I'm catching the error and I want to
display a dialog to the user letting them know that they need to kill some
background tasks to free up memory. It would be nice to have a button that
opens up an application that does this.
Is there a way to start an Intent that launches:
Applications Manager > Running Processes (so the user can force stop some
tasks)
Or even better the option to choose from any apps the user might have
installed that allow you till processes (eg: Advanced Task Manager)
An even better option would be to automatically clear up background
activities but I doubt this is possible.
