  2. Intel 5-level paging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_5-level_paging

    4-level paging of the 64-bit mode. In the 4-level paging scheme (previously known as IA-32e paging), the 64-bit virtual memory address is divided into five parts. The lowest 12 bits contain the offset within the 4 KiB memory page, and the following 36 bits are evenly divided between the four 9 bit descriptors, each linking to a 64-bit page table entry in a 512-entry page table for each of the ...

  3. Physical Address Extension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension

    32-bit versions of Microsoft Windows support PAE if booted with the appropriate option. According to Microsoft Technical Fellow Mark Russinovich, some drivers were found to be unstable when encountering physical addresses above 4GB. [16] The following table shows the memory limits for 32-bit versions of Microsoft Windows:

  4. Long mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_mode

    An x86-64 processor acts identically to an IA-32 processor when running in real mode or protected mode, which are supported modes when the processor is not in long mode.. A bit in the CPUID extended attributes field informs programs in real or protected modes if the processor can go to long mode, which allows a program to detect an x86-64 processor.

  5. Protected mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_mode

    In computing, protected mode, also called protected virtual address mode, [1] is an operational mode of x86-compatible central processing units (CPUs). It allows system software to use features such as segmentation, virtual memory, paging and safe multi-tasking designed to increase an operating system's control over application software.

  6. 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.

  7. Real mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_mode

    The mode gets its name from the fact that addresses in real mode always correspond to real locations in memory. Real mode is characterized by a 20-bit segmented memory address space (giving 1 MB of addressable memory) and unlimited direct software access to all addressable memory, I/O addresses and peripheral hardware. Real mode provides no ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Management_Engine

    Starting with ME 11 (introduced in Skylake CPUs), it is based on the Intel Quark x86-based 32-bit CPU and runs the MINIX 3 operating system. [12] The ME firmware is stored in a partition of the SPI BIOS Flash, using the Embedded Flash File System (EFFS). [13] Previous versions were based on an ARC core, with the Management Engine running the ...

  9. Windows on Windows - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_on_Windows

    In computing, Windows on Windows (commonly referred to as WOW) [1] [2] [3] is a discontinued compatibility layer of 32-bit versions of the Windows NT family of operating systems since 1993 with the release of Windows NT 3.1, which extends NTVDM to provide limited support for running legacy 16-bit programs written for Windows 3.x or earlier.
