1Virtual memory/rewrite — Virtual memory is a computer system technique that gives an application program the impression it has contiguous working memory, while in fact it is physically fragmented and may even overflow on to disk storage. Systems which use this technique… …
2Virtual memory — This article is about the computational technique. For the TBN game show, see Virtual Memory (game show). Virtual memory combines active RAM and inactive memory in disk form into a large range of contiguous addresses. In computing, virtual memory …
3Memory footprint — refers to the amount of main memory that a program uses or references while running. This includes all sorts of active memory regions like code, static data sections (both initialized and uninitialized), heap, as well as all the stacks, plus… …
4Memory address — A digital computer s memory, more specifically main memory, consists of many memory locations, each having a memory address, a number, analogous to a street address, at which computer programs store (except when the address is in mask ROM) and… …
5Memory leak — A memory leak, in computer science (or leakage, in this context), occurs when a computer program consumes memory but is unable to release it back to the operating system. In object oriented programming, a memory leak happens when an object is… …
6Virtual DOS machine — (VDM) is Microsoft s technology that allows running legacy DOS and 16 bit Windows programs on Intel 80386 or higher computers when there is already another operating system running and controlling the hardware. Contents 1 Overview 2 NTVDM 3… …
