a memory management concept

an isolated, protected chunk of memory that can be used to run NLMs which are isolated from the core operating system

a set of memory locations from zero to some limit

a set of virtual address segments

a collection of ranges of virtual memory locations with specific memory access rights

An area of a computer's memory, within which the addresses of memory locations are contiguous and may refer to one another directly. A shared memory computer has a single, global address space; a distributed memory computer has a separate, local address space on each processing element.

The range of memory locations that available to a computer program.

The code, stack, and data that is accessible by a process.

(1) The range of addresses available to a computer program. ANSI. (2) The complete range of addresses that are available to a programmer. (3) The area of virtual storage available for a particular job. (4) In the AIX operating system, the code, stack, and data that can be accessed by a process. IBM.

n. The total range of memory locations addressable by a computer.

A range of memory addresses available to an application program.

(n.) A region of a computer's total memory within which addresses are contiguous and may refer to one another directly. A shared memory computer has only one user-visible address space; a disjoint memory computer can have several.

In computing, an address space defines a range of discrete addresses, each of which may correspond to a physical or virtual memory register, a network host, peripheral device, disk sector or other logical or physical entity.

A set of addresses used to uniquely identify network accessible units, sessions, adjacent link stations, and links in a node for each network in which the node participates. A type 2.1 node has one address space for intranode routing and one for each transmission group on which it can send message units.

A set of address information associated with a connector or gateway that identifies a certain type or group of recipients and the route messages to those recipients should take. The address space exists so the Exchange MTA can determine how to get a message to its final destinations. See also Connector.
