    In operating systems, memory management is the function responsible for managing the computer's primary memory. [1]: 105–208 The memory management function keeps track of the status of each memory location, either allocated or free. It determines how memory is allocated among competing processes, deciding which gets memory, when they receive ...

    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. Single address space operating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_address_space...

    In a single address space operating system, numerically identical (virtual memory) logical addresses in different processes all refer to exactly the same byte of data. [ 1 ] In a traditional OS with private per-process address space, memory protection is based on address space boundaries ("address space isolation").
