Memory Allocation Algorithm

This repository contains a Python program for visualizing various memory allocation algorithms, including First Fit, Best Fit, Worst Fit, and Next Fit.

Project inspired by this repo.

Preview

Running the Program

1. Clone the repository to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/zenor0/memory-allocation-algorithm.git

2. Navigate to the repository directory:

   cd memory-allocation-algorithm

3. Run the main.py script:

   python main.py

4. Enter partition size in Memory config frame (split multi partition by space ).

5. Allocate process size (split multi process by space ).

6. Click Allocate button to run algorithm.

7. The GUI will display the total memory with partitions. You can enter process sizes and choose the allocation algorithm from the menu.

Hints

1. You can select the memory allocation algorithm from the drop-down menu.

2. You can enter multiple process sizes by separating them with spaces.

3. You can visualize see what process you've selected by hovering over the process in the GUI.

4. You can de-allocate a process by double-clicking on it.

5. You can delete task by double-clicking on it.

6. Click Demo button to run demo.
