Difference between internal fragmentation and external fragmentation in operating system?

Fragmentation occurs in a dynamic memory allocation system when many of the free blocks are too small to satisfy any request. External Fragmentation: External Fragmentation happens when a dynamic memory allocation algorithm allocates some memory and a small piece is left over that cannot be effectively used. If too much external fragmentation occurs, the amount of usable memory is drastically reduced. Total memory space exists to satisfy a request, but it is not contiguous. Internal Fragmentation: Internal fragmentation is the space wasted inside of allocated memory blocks because of restriction on the allowed sizes of allocated blocks. Allocated memory may be slightly larger than requested memory; this size difference is memory internal to a partition, but not being used


Explain terminoligy used in computer defragmenter?

The more you change things on your computer the more fragmentation of your computer memory you are making. here are some computer operating systems that will automatically reduce the amount of fragmentation you will have. Most computers will still have some fragmentation of files on the hard disk. You have, as part of the operating system of your computer the ability to 'tidy up', or remove fragmentation mostly running the operating system defrag program. This will mean your computer will put everything you use most at the easiest to access end of your memory, this means that the computer works as fast as it can


Increase page size then internal fragmentation will?

Does paging suffer from internal fragmentation?

If there are large blank spaces in each page of the program then internal fragmentation can occur. Smaller pages can remedy this, but the overall amount of pages will then increase, causing slowed execution.


How would you describe comprehensive risk assessment?

The CPA identifies and assesses the various risks facing an organization, such as the operating environment, operating systems, or information systems. The risks might be internal, external, or regulatory.


Compare Contiguous memory allocation with internal fragmentation?

in early, computer system has contiguous memory allocation,each process is allocated in a single contiguous(together) memory!!(allocating into memory addresses one by one,)it has tackled memory fragmentation(both internal and external). not allocating for a fixed size memory block.so no internal fragmentation, allocating contiguously ,so no external fragmentation!!!
