Operating System (OS) Question:
Explain the resident set and working set of a process?
Answer:
Resident set is that portion of the process image that is actually in real-memory at a particular instant. Working set is that subset of resident set that is actually needed for execution. Relate this to the variable-window size method for swapping techniques.
