Abstract:
1. A system for providing information on memory use of a computer memory, the system comprising: at least one interrogating computer, which comprises a client unit connected to a display unit; at least one interrogated computer, which comprises an operating system core comprising a kernel, an operating system core unit, a coupling unit, and an agency unit connected with the at least one interrogating computer via a communication channel; and the communication channel connecting the at least one interrogating computer and the at least one interrogated computer, wherein the client unit operates to generate a user request requesting information on memory use of the at least one interrogated computer, to transfer the user request to the agency unit, to receive the information from the agency unit, and to display the received information on the display unit, the information on the memory use of the at least one interrogated computer comprises information on physical addresses of data units of memory, the agency unit operates to receive the user request from the client unit, to convert the user request, to transfer the converted user request to the operating system core unit, to obtain the information on the memory use of the at least one interrogated computer from the operating system core unit through the coupling unit, and to transfer the obtained information to the client unit, the coupling unit is coupled to the operating system core unit embodied in the operating system core and to the agency unit embodied in the interrogated computer to serve as an intermediary data transfer device between the agency unit and the operating system core unit and operates to establish an access to the operating system core unit and transfer data from the agency unit to the operating system core unit and from the operating system core unit back to the agency unit, and the operating system core unit is positioned within the operation system core, obtains, from the operating system core, the information on the memory use of the at least one interrogated computer, and transfers the obtained information to the agency unit through the coupling unit.
