In computing, virtual memory is a memory management method developed for multitasking kernels. This technique virtualizes computer architecture's various forms of computer data storage such as random-access memory and disk storage, permitting a program to be designed as though there is only one kind of memory, "virtual" memory, which behaves like directly and contiguous addressable read/write memory.
