[edit] Memory Management Algorithms

There are three memory management algorithms.

  • First-Fit: A chunk of data is put in the first available block of memory that is big enough for the data to fit.
  • Best-Fit: A chunk of data is put into the absolutely smallest available block of memory that can still fit the data.
  • Worst-Fit: A chunk of data is put into the largest available block of memory. This is the opposite of the Best-Fit algorithm.
