Computer Memory and Storage

This memory operation is a form of automatic memory management where each object has a count of the number of references to it.

This operation in system software is the process of assigning load addresses to various parts of the program adjusting the code and data in the program to reflect the assigned addresses.

The microprocessor uses flags to test data conditions.

Translation lookaside buffer is used to speed up paging and avoid frequent access to main memory.

The part of the operating system which manages the primary memory of the computer is called as Memory manager.

The condition of splitting primary memory into segments as the memory is allocated is known as fragmentation.

It is a type of Logical memory. Extended memory is available in 286 and later processor based computers.

CMOS chip stores the time and settings of the system. The CMOS battery saves the settings and time when the computer is switched off.

Pen drive is a non-volatile memory device. Flash memory is a high density device and non-volatile also. It is fast in reading and writting data because it writes data in chunks and blocks. ROM is not used by pen drive.

Fileservers provide local file system features including backup capabilities and security/access control mechanisms. Option A covers backup, while option B covers security. Option C correctly identifies that fileservers provide both features.

This RAID level refers to memory-style error correcting code and redundancy through hamming code.

This RAID level refers to mirrored set without parity and mirrored disks.

In this specification of data structure, one needs to determine where the data will reside and allocate space in that storage area.

This operator is used to get the content of the address pointed by a pointer variable to a particular memory location.

A flash drive can be used as both primary as well as secondary memory.
