Across

1. A memory management technique that allows a computer to compensate for physical memory shortages, temporarily transferring data from RAM to disk storage.

2. The number of bits a computer bus can efficiently transmit in a single operation.

3. A data structure used by the operating system to map virtual addresses to physical addresses.

4. The maximum rate data can be transferred between two points in a specified path.

5. A component that manages the flow of data between the processor and memory, influencing data transfer rates and efficiency.

6. A fixed-size block of physical memory used by the operating system to store data and instructions, aligning with the size of pages in virtual memory.

7. A performance issue in virtual memory systems where an excessive amount of time is spent swapping pages between RAM and disk.

8. The time it takes for the memory to retrieve data when requested by the CPU.

9. A designated area on a disk that the operating system uses as virtual memory.

10. The organization of different levels of memory, with varying access speeds and capacities, to optimize performance.

11. When a process requests a page that is not currently in memory.

12. The rate at which data can be read from or written to memory.

Down

13. The frequency at which a computer's memory operates, measured in cycles per second.

14. The delay between the moment data is requested and the moment it is received.

15. A memory management scheme that eliminates the need for contiguous allocation of physical memory.

16. The frequency at which DRAM memory cells need to be refreshed to retain data.

17. The smallest unit of memory in SRAM and DRAM that can store a bit of data.

18. The period for which data can be stored in SRAM or DRAM without being refreshed.
