Locate variables at the specified address
I'm trying to use DMA on NXP's LPC824, and it requires to locate some variables ('descriptors') at the certain location in SRAM, whose address should be aligned at 512-byte boundary. Is there any way to specify the address of variables in SRAM?

So you don't need a specific address, just alligned, see: http://www.keil.com/support/man/docs/armccref/armccref_babdfecc.htm
If you want really a specific location, see for example: http://www.keil.com/support/docs/2829.htm or
__attribute__((section(".ARM.__at_0x10000"))).
With of course a correct location inside your SRAM memory.
