Computer Memory and Storage

Data is stored in a sequence in the cassette tape.

The loader is the essential system software component responsible for loading programs into memory and initiating execution. Unlike assemblers, linkers, or text editors which are used during program development, the loader must always be present in main memory to load and execute any program, making it fundamental to system operation.

A load-and-go assembler generates absolute machine code and directly loads it into main memory for immediate execution, bypassing the intermediate object code file. This single-pass approach eliminates the linking and loading phases, providing faster turnaround during program development and testing.

Caching saves recently viewed Web sites, images, and files on a local hard drive so that they don't have to be downloaded from the Web again. This process is done by proxy server.

Static Memory Allocations do not vary in location or size during the lifetime of the program.

The base register was useful as a pointer in 16 bit mode.

It occurs both when a linker combines object files and when a loader copies an executable file into memory in preparation for execution.

It had a convenient one byte instruction for loading data out of memory into the accumulator.

It is an association between memory address attribute of a data item and the address of a memory area.

These instructions permit the accumulator to access groups of data bytes, as may be necessary with long precision arithmetic in 8085 processor.

These instructions provide a quick means of adding one to the contents of a register or memory location in 8085 processor.

These instructions provide a means of subtracting 1 from the contents of a register or a memory location in 8085 processor.

All are the tasks of the PCB.

The program counter is responsible for the address of the next instruction to be executed for each process.

Option (2) is correct.
