What program can execute in any area of the memory?
Virtual Memory
When a user runs a program which area of main memory is it loaded into?
The program is run on your RAM memory, on the most available CPU core.
What is called A reserved area of the immediate access memory used to increase the running speed of the computer program?
cache memory
What are subdivision of computer main memory?
Input Storage Area Working Storage Area Output Storage Area Program Storage Area
What is the special area of computer memory which contains data that the program is likely to need from storage?
Hard Drive
If a program exceeds the allocated space in RAM the operating system uses an area of the hard disk called what memory?
Virtual memory, which is much less efficient than physical memory (RAM).
Does main memory provide the CPU with a working storage area for program instructions and data?
main memory provides buffers.buffers are the places where program execution takes place.but the CPU is provided with registers(memory units) there CPU can accomodate instructions and the data on which theses instructions are to be operated.from the main memory CPU fetches the instructions one by one and the instruction is processed in the CPU and then sends back the result to the main memory......i think so.thank u
Difference between contiguous and non contiguous memory?
In contiguous allocation there is no overhead during execution of a program. In noncontiguous allocation address translation is performed during execution Contiguous memory allocates single area of memory Noncontigious memory allocates several memory areas - one memory are to each component of a process
What is the difference between contiguous and noncontiguous text?
Dfference between contiguous and noncontiguous1) In contiguous allocation there is no overhead during execution of a program.1)In noncontiguous allocation address translation is performed during execution2)Contiguous memory allocates single area of memory2)Noncontigious memory allocates several memory areas - one memory are to each component of a process
Why memory is divided into initialized and uninitialized areas?
The program's data segment. This area of memory is allocated by the linker and is used to store the program's global variables, static variables, static arrays and constants. Constants are always initialised, as are static variables, but global variables and static arrays need not be initialised.
When the user loads a program it is copied into before it is run?
RAM It depends on the computer system being used. Traditionally an executable program would be copied in its entirety from its storage media (disk, diskette, tape, SD card, USB device, network storage) into memory (also called RAM for Random Access Memory). If it already is in a high speed ROM (read only memory) it might be executed directly from there or it might still be copied into RAM for execution. It depends on the capabilities of the rest of the hardware. Systems with a swapping area might copy the program to the swap area and flag it for execution. When its turn comes, part of it are loaded into memory as needed and run. Other systems don't even do that. They can just flag the program location on the disk drive as ready run. When its turn arrives, the needed parts of the program are copied to memory and run.
What memory serves as a staging area from the processor?
Cache memory
