Memory allocation strategies are essential for manageming how an operating system assignes space to processes. These strategies influence systeme performance, fragmentation, and overall accessiony. Understanding different acceaches helps optimize enguce utilization and systemem stability.

Contiguous Memory Allocation

This method assigns a single contiguous block of memory to a process. It is simple to o implement but can lead to external fragmentation, where free memory is divided into small, unusable segments. Over time, this fragmentation can reduce te te avavaiable memory for new processes.

Non- Contiguous Memory Allocation

In this accach, memory is allocated in non-adjacent blocks, alloing more flexible use of avavalable space. Techniques such as paging and segmentation fall under this category. These methods help reduce external fragmentation and improvizace memory utilization.

Paging and Segmentation

Paging divides memory into fixed- size pages, which can be assigned indepently. Segmentation, on then then ther hand, divides memory into variable -sized segments based on logical divisions like functions or data structures. Both techniques aim to optimize memory use and minimize fragmentation.
