  2. Video random-access memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_random-access_memory

    Video random-access memory (VRAM) is dedicated computer memory used to store the pixels and other graphics data as a framebuffer to be rendered on a computer monitor. [1] It often uses a different technology than other computer memory, in order to be read quickly for display on a screen.

  3. Virtual memory compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory_compression

    By reducing the I/O activity caused by paging requests, virtual memory compression can produce overall performance improvements. The degree of performance improvement depends on a variety of factors, including the availability of any compression co-processors, spare bandwidth on the CPU, speed of the I/O channel, speed of the physical memory, and the compressibility of the physical memory ...

    If so, we have nothing to do: finished Otherwise: Wait until the lift is idle Go to the required floor Release the memory we used to remember the floor number The memory leak would occur if the floor number requested is the same floor that the elevator is on; the condition for releasing the memory would be skipped.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_address_remapping...

    A GART is used as a means of data exchange between the main memory and video memory through which buffers (i.e. paging/swapping) of textures, polygon meshes and other data are loaded, but can also be used to expand the amount of video memory available for systems with only integrated or shared graphics (i.e. no discrete or inbuilt graphics ...

  6. Dual-ported video RAM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-ported_video_RAM

    Dual-ported video RAM (VRAM) is a dual-ported RAM variant of dynamic RAM (DRAM), which was once commonly used to store the Framebuffer in Graphics card, Dual-ported RAM allows the CPU to read and write data to memory as if it were a conventional DRAM chip, while adding a second port that reads out data.

  7. Framebuffer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framebuffer

    Modern CRT monitors fix this problem through the introduction of protection circuitry. When the display mode is changed, the monitor attempts to obtain a signal lock on the new refresh frequency. If the monitor is unable to obtain a signal lock, or if the signal is outside the range of its design limitations, the monitor will ignore the ...

  8. Memory management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_management

    Memory management (also dynamic memory management, dynamic storage allocation, or dynamic memory allocation) is a form of resource management applied to computer memory.The essential requirement of memory management is to provide ways to dynamically allocate portions of memory to programs at their request, and free it for reuse when no longer needed.

  9. Virtual memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory

    Virtual memory combines active RAM and inactive memory on DASD [a] to form a large range of contiguous addresses.. In computing, virtual memory, or virtual storage, [b] is a memory management technique that provides an "idealized abstraction of the storage resources that are actually available on a given machine" [3] which "creates the illusion to users of a very large (main) memory".
