Single-user,fixed partition,and dynamic partition memory schemes share unacceptable fragmentation characteristics that were resolved with the development of ____.
A) deallocation
B) best-fit algorithms
C) relocatable dynamic partitions
D) null entry accounting

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Relocatable dynamic partitions allow for more efficient use of memory by dynamically adjusting partition sizes and reducing fragmentation. This is achieved by allowing programs to be loaded into any available partition of appropriate size, rather than being limited to a specific fixed or dynamic partition. Deallocations and best-fit algorithms are helpful, but relocatable dynamic partitions are a more comprehensive solution to the fragmentation problem. Null entry accounting is not a relevant concept in this context.
