  8. Dynamic loading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_loading

    Dynamic loading is a mechanism by which a computer program can, at run time, load a library (or other binary) into memory, retrieve the addresses of functions and variables contained in the library, execute those functions or access those variables, and unload the library from memory.

  9. Process management (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    A process is a program in execution, and an integral part of any modern-day operating system (OS). The OS must allocate resources to processes, enable processes to share and exchange information, protect the resources of each process from other processes and enable synchronization among processes.
