Description |
English: Virtual memory:
The block on the left shows a large, contiguous range of addresses as an application program sees it.
But in reality the parts of the program's address range which are currently being used are scattered around real physical memory (e.g. en:RAM), and the inactive parts are saved in a disk file.
