Slide 11-3 Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc. Operating Systems: A Modern Perspective, Chapter 11 Memory Manager Requirements –Minimize executable memory access time –Maximize executable memory size –Executable memory must be cost-effective Today’s memory manager: –Allocates primary memory to processes –Maps process address space to primary memory –Minimizes access time using cost-effective memory configuration –May use static or dynamic techniques

Slide 11-17 Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc. Operating Systems: A Modern Perspective, Chapter 11 Dynamic Memory Allocation Could use dynamically allocated memory Process wants to change the size of its address space –Smaller Creates an external fragment –Larger May have to move/relocate the program Allocate “holes” in memory according to –Best- /Worst- / First- /Next-fit

Slide 11-18 Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc. Operating Systems: A Modern Perspective, Chapter 11 Memory Mgmt Strategies Fixed-Partition used only in batch systems Variable-Partition used everywhere (except in virtual memory) Swapping systems –Popularized in timesharing –Relies on dynamic address relocation –Now dated Dynamic Loading (Virtual Memory) –Exploit the memory hierarchy –Paging -- mainstream in contemporary systems –Segmentation -- the future

Slide 11-23 Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc. Operating Systems: A Modern Perspective, Chapter 11 Special Case: Swapping Special case of dynamic memory allocation Suppose there is high demand for executable memory Equitable policy might be to time-multiplex processes into the memory (also space-mux) Means that process can have its address space unloaded when it still needs memory –Usually only happens when it is blocked
