Memory Management Quiz

Which of the following is NOT a strategy for memory management?

• Contiguous Allocation

• Paging

• File System Management

• Segmentation

What does MMU stand for in the context of memory management?

• Memory Management Unit

• Memory Mapping Unit

• Multi-core Management Unit

• Memory Manipulation Unit

In logical address space, the addresses generated by the CPU are referred to as:

• Physical addresses

• Virtual addresses

• Machine addresses

• Kernel addresses

What is the primary function of address translation in memory management?

• To swap data between memory and disk

• To convert logical addresses to physical addresses

• To manage file storage

• To allocate CPU time

Swapping is primarily used to:

• Increase the size of the main memory

• Move processes between main memory and disk

• Improve disk access times

• Optimize CPU performance

Which of the following best describes contiguous memory allocation?

• Memory is divided into fixed-sized blocks.

• Each process is allocated a single contiguous block of memory.

• Memory is allocated based on process priority.

• Memory is dynamically allocated as needed.

Segmentation allows the division of memory into segments based on:

• Fixed sizes

• Logical divisions of a program

• The number of processes

• The size of physical memory

In paging, the memory is divided into:

• Segments

• Pages

• Frames

• Chunks

Virtual memory is primarily used to:

• Increase physical memory size

• Enable programs to run in a larger address space than physically available

• Enhance disk performance

• Reduce the need for RAM

Demand paging refers to:

• Loading all pages of a program into memory at once

• Loading pages into memory only when they are needed

• Paging that occurs without user intervention

• The process of unloading pages from memory
