Abstract

In this paper I have described the memory management and allocation techniques in computer systems. The purpose of writing this survey paper is to elaborate the concept of memory allocation and management in computer systems because of the significance of memory component in computer system’s hardware. It is apparent from the work of computer scientists that effective and efficient main memory management and virtual memory management in computer systems improves the computer system’s performance by increasing throughput and processor utilization and by decreasing the response time and turnaround time.Firstly I have compared Uniprogramming system with Multiprogramming system. After comparison I found that Multiprogramming systems are quite better than Uniprogramming systems from the point of view of memory utilization. Also the functionality of operating system routines which are responsible for user’s memory partitioning must be improved to get better system performance in Multiprogramming system .
