MVT and MFT memory management techniques
EXPERIMENT
OBJECTIVE
Write a C program to simulate the MVT and MFT memory
management techniques
DESCRIPTION
MFT (Multiprogramming with a Fixed number of Tasks) is one of the
old memory management techniques in which the memory is partitioned into
fixed size partitions and each job is assigned to a partition. The memory
assigned to a partition does not change.
MVT (Multiprogramming with a Variable number of Tasks) is the
memory management technique in which each job gets just the amount of
memory it needs. That is, the partitioning of memory is dynamic and changes
as jobs enter and leave the system. MVT is a more ``efficient'' user of
resources. MFT suffers with the problem of internal fragmentation and MVT
suffers with external fragmentation.

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
main()
{
int ms, bs, nob, ef,n, mp[10],tif=0;
int i,p=0;
clrscr();
printf("Enter the total memory available (in Bytes) -- ");
scanf("%d",&ms);
printf("Enter the block size (in Bytes) -- ");
scanf("%d", &bs);
nob=ms/bs;
ef=ms - nob*bs;
printf("\nEnter the number of processes -- ");
scanf("%d",&n);
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
printf("Enter memory required for process %d (in Bytes)-- ",i+1);
scanf("%d",&mp[i]);
}
printf("\nNo. of Blocks available in memory -- %d",nob);
printf("\n\nPROCESS\tMEMORY REQUIRED\t ALLOCATED\tINTERNAL
FRAGMENTATION");
for(i=0;i<n && p<nob;i++)

printf("\nMemory is Full, Remaining Processes cannot be accomodated");
printf("\n\nTotal Internal Fragmentation is %d",tif);
printf("\nTotal External Fragmentation is %d",ef);

}
INPUT
Enter the total memory available (in Bytes) -- 1000
Enter the block size (in Bytes)-- 300
Enter the number of processes – 5
Enter memory required for process 1 (in Bytes) -- 275
Enter memory required for process 2 (in Bytes) -- 400
Enter memory required for process 3 (in Bytes) -- 290
Enter memory required for process 4 (in Bytes) -- 293
Enter memory required for process 5 (in Bytes) -- 100
No. of Blocks available in memory -- 3
OUTPUT
PROCESS MEMORY-REQUIRED ALLOCATED INTERNAL-FRAGMENTATION
1 275 YES 25
2 400 NO -----
3 290 YES 10
4 293 YES 7
Memory is Full, Remaining Processes cannot be accommodated
Total Internal Fragmentation is 42
Total External Fragmentation is 100

INPUT
Enter the total memory available (in Bytes) -- 1000
Enter memory required for process 1 (in Bytes) -- 400
Memory is allocated for Process 1
Do you want to continue(y/n) -- y
Enter memory required for process 2 (in Bytes) -- 275
Memory is allocated for Process 2
Do you want to continue(y/n) -- y
Enter memory required for process 3 (in Bytes) -- 550
OUTPUT
Memory is Full
Total Memory Available -- 1000
PROCESS MEMORY-ALLOCATED
1 400
2 275
Total Memory Allocated is 675
Total External Fragmentation is 325
