storage management

Storage management usually refers to the management of Computer data storage, which includes memory management. It can also refer to specific methods or products for storage management, such as the following. ADSTAR Distributed Storage Manager. Automatic Storage Management. Hierarchical storage management.

device management

Within the computer, activating and controlling the peripheral devices. In a desktop computer, the operating system interacts with the device drivers for peripheral control. In very small embedded systems, the device management routines may be included within the OS.

memory management

Memory management is the process of controlling and coordinating computer memory, assigning portions called blocks to various running programs to optimize overall system performance. Memory management resides in hardware, in the OS (operating system), and in programs and applications.

process management
