    Why Do We Memorize Poems?

    Knowing a poem by heart often seems to make it special, something that can come to mind when I'm alone walking in the parkland hills near the house, something to repeat aloud for no reason besides itself. The poems in this thread are (by open invitation to others as well) typed from memory...

    Can Different Processors Share Memory in Embedded Systems?

    What are the basic elements in embedded systems? Can I use any microcontrollers, DSPs, and microprocessors in one systems. If yes, how is memory element linked with microcontrollers, DSPs, and microprocessors? On whose memory elements, codes are written? Which language is preferred for the codes?

    Memory management-worst fit algorithm

    let us suppose we use the worst fit algorithm for allocating memory...initaially when whole of the memory is available...then it allocates full memory to one single process...hence no multiprogramming possible...hence what are the advantages of this algorithm...over first fit and best fit...
