2. Cheney's algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheney's_algorithm

   Cheney's algorithm, first described in a 1970 ACM paper by C.J. Cheney, is a stop and copy method of tracing garbage collection in computer software systems. In this scheme, the heap is divided into two equal halves, only one of which is in use at any one time.

3. Memory paging - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_paging

   To save space, only one copy of the shared library is loaded into physical memory. Programs which use the same library have virtual addresses that map to the same pages (which contain the library's code and data). When programs want to modify the library's code, they use copy-on-write, so memory is only allocated when needed.

5. Fragmentation (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragmentation_(computing)

   If there isn't already enough contiguous free space to hold the file, use a copying collector to convert many little bits of free space into one contiguous free region big enough to hold the file. This takes a lot more time than breaking the file up into fragments and putting those fragments into the available free space.

6. List of file copying software - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_copying_software

   This article provides a list of inbuilt and third party file copying and moving software - utilities and other software used, as part of computer file management, to explicitly move and copy files and other data on demand from one location to another on a storage device. File copying is a fundamental operation for data storage.

8. Loader (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loader_(computing)

   Loading a program involves either memory-mapping or copying the contents of the executable file containing the program instructions into memory, and then carrying out other required preparatory tasks to prepare the executable for running. Once loading is complete, the operating system starts the program by passing control to the loaded program ...

9. Garbage collection (computer science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garbage_collection...

   Stop-and-copy garbage collection in a Lisp architecture: [1] Memory is divided into working and free memory; new objects are allocated in the former. When it is full (depicted), garbage collection is performed: All data structures still in use are located by pointer tracing and copied into consecutive locations in free memory.
