How does virtual memory optimize performance of your operating system?
It allows hard disk space to be used as RAM It acts as an overflow buffer for the physically available
What is the difference between physical memory and available memory?
Physical memory is how much total memory your computer actually has. Available memory is what memory you have that is not being used.
Why is video memory important on a computer?
Because allows you to view the graphics from a computer. If there is insufficient video memory, the system 'borrows' available space from the RAM, which in turn robs you of processing speed and slows the computer down. If you require graphics intensive programs to run, such as 3D games, you need a graphics card with it's own memory chips.
Which memory in a computer that allows simultaneous read and write operations?
RAM
What is the native heap size?
The heap refers to the free store, which basically means the total unused memory available to you. The physical amount of memory will vary from system to system and the amount of memory available will depend upon how much is currently in use. However memory fragmentation means that while there may be sufficient physical memory available to meet an allocation request it does not follow that there is a large enough block of contiguous memory available, resulting in an out of memory error. Modern systems use virtual memory addresses rather than physical ones. This allows the memory manager to physically move objects around in memory without affecting the virtual addresses allocated to those objects and thus makes it possible to consolidate memory fragments. Objects that are not in use can also be paged out to a disk file, thus making it seem like there's far more memory available than physically exists.
Write a short note on computer memory?
1 what is computer memory 2 explain information system. discuss various information systems available in any organization.
What do you understand by a memory of computer system?
Memory of computer system is the part of the computer's hardware that allows it to store information. It is classified into primary/main memory (RAM and ROM) and secondary storage (hard drives, CD drives etc.).
What is RAM module?
RAM is computer memory that can be accessed randomly and is generally used as the main memory available for programs. RAM modules are sticks of memory that can be placed into slots on a computer's motherboard.
Can you increase the physical memory of a computer?
Absolutely; modern computers have a modular design which allows additional memory to be added if desired.
The amount of RAM that is actually on the memory modules in your computer is the memory?
The amount of RAM that is physically installed on the memory modules in your computer is known as the memory size or memory capacity. This determines the storage capacity for temporary data storage and retrieval while the computer is running programs. RAM is crucial for system performance as it provides quick access to data for the CPU.
What is access time in case of computer memory?
Access time in case of computer memory is the time a program or device takes to locate single piece of information and then make it available to computer for processing.
What is referred to by computer resources?
When people talk about computer resources, they are usually referring to the available memory in RAM and the amount of time the CPU has available to execute an instruction.
