Swapping

  • A.works best with many small partitions
  • B.allows many programs to use memory simultaneously
  • C.allows each program in turn to use the memory
  • D.does not work with overlaying

Answer: C

Correct answer: allows each program in turn to use the memory

Swapping moves a whole process out to backing store and brings another in, so the processes take turns occupying memory rather than sharing it at the same instant. It is the coarsest form of memory management, and it is what paging refines by moving pages rather than whole processes.
