main memory

The management of main memory is critical to the computer system.

Care needs to be taken to reduce the number of times main memory is accessed in order to maintain performance.

For each of the three states, the process occupies space in main memory.

Typically n is large enough that the list doesn't fit into main memory.

But while we're doing those things we're not using main memory.

The game maps are in my main memory too, remember?

These display lists eventually get written back out to main memory before going on to the next stage.

In most of these states, processes are "stored" on main memory.

In most systems, the size of a process's virtual address space is much larger than the available main memory.

This is most likely the main memory of the device.
