Byte-Oriented Mem OrganizationByte-Oriented Mem Organization
Programs Refer to Virtual AddressesPrograms Refer to Virtual Addresses Conceptually very large array of bytes Actually implemented with hierarchy of different memory
types – SRAM, DRAM, Disk System provides address space private to particular
“process” Program being executed Program can clobber its own data, but not that of others
Compiler + Run-Time System Control AllocationCompiler + Run-Time System Control Allocation Where different program objects should be stored Multiple mechanisms: static, stack, heap, etc. All allocation within single virtual address space
