Computer Memory

Explore the fundamentals of virtual memory and how operating systems manage physical memory using paging. Understand memory pages, page faults, and their impact on system performance. This lesson provides crucial insights into memory behavior under the hood, helping you optimize your C++ applications for better efficiency.

A computer’s physical memory is shared among all the processes running on a system. If one process uses a lot of memory, the other processes will most likely be affected. But from a programmer’s perspective, we usually don’t have to bother about the memory used by other processes. This isolation of ...
