In today's computers, it's necessary to have efficient memory management, which means how the computer handles its main memory. This is important for applications and the operating system to run smoothly, especially if a program needs to stay running for a long time without shutting down. The computer's resources are to be used wisely to make everything perform better. This paper explains the methods an operating system uses to manage memory. Specifically, it will show the basic design of segmentation—a memory management technique. We'll demonstrate how memory is allocated using segmentation, the fundamental concepts of virtual memory.
