hi,

How memory space is allocated in Windows OS?

Explain me about the memory allocation done for the applications?

Please suggest me some links where I can learn more about the internal workings of an Operating system.

Thanks,
Siva.

As long I believe MS is not providing these information. They consider all these kind of information as their intellectual property and do not want to make it public.

Look at Windows Internals or similar books. I'm sure you'll find overwhelming detail. I read a similar book about OS/2 a decade or so ago and given the enormous complexity of what goes on I'm amazed that computers even run.

This is the site where you will find more tools related to Windows Internals.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
