+# Memory Management
+
+Memory management is a multipart process with multiple layers:
+- [Physical memory](physical-memory): manages allocation of physical memory (page frame alloc).
+- [Virtual memory](virtual-memory): manages virtualization and protection of memory (paging).
+- Memory allocation: allocates memory for processes (malloc, free).
