C++ Memory Management
C++ Memory management The computer system has a finite memory available to allocate to multiple processes. When memory is inefficiently distributed then the number of processes that can be run simultaneous decreases, also programs are cleared from or loaded to memory more often depending on their priority leading to the system feeling sluggish to the user. To tackle this problem, we follow memory management principles and practices. Memory management controls and coordinated the allocation of memory blocks to the various running programs in order to optimize the system. Memory management can be implemented in the hardware, OS and application levels. At hardware level, it involves the primary and secondary memory modules such as RAM, SSD, HDD, etc. At OS level, it involves distribution of memory for various processes while reserving some memory for OS processes. At Application level, it involves the request and management of memory blocks required by...
