08. OCR GCSE (J277) 1.2 Virtual memory
About this video
OCR J277 Specification Reference - Section 1.2
In this video we consider what happens when a modern multi-tasking operating system runs out of physical RAM. Does it output a “memory full” message and refuse to open a program or data, or is there another way of handling this situation? This video explores the concept of virtual memory as a solution at a depth required for GCSE.
Don't forget, whenever the blue note icon appears in the corner of the screen, that is your cue to take notes about the content being shown on the current slide.
