What is fixed partition memory?
The first attempt to allow for multiprogramming used fixed partitions (also called static partitions) within the main memory-one partition for each job. Because the size of each partition was designated when the system was powered on, each partition could only be reconfigured when the computer system was shut down, reconfigured, and restarted. Thus, once the system was in operation the partition sizes remained static.

What does the swap partition do on Ubuntu?
All modern operating systems implement what is called "virtual memory", where unused parts of an application are swapped out and placed on the hard drive. Windows does this by creating a swapfile on bootup and then resizing it as needed. The problem with this is that resizing it constantly will cause the file system to become fragmented. Linux typically uses a dedicated partition for swapping instead of a swapfile.While the partition is a fixed size and may take up more space than the Windows swapfile at any given moment, it helps prevent the file system from becoming fragmented and is usually faster.
Do a swap partition contains a filesystem?
In the normal sense of a "file"system, swap is not formatted as a file system. It is formatted similar to memory or RAM.
