Question

Is there internal fragmentation in continuous dynamic partitioning ?

After the processes have been allocated the partitions according to their size , there is no internal fragmentation , I agree but what if some processes have completed their execution and left leaving behind the holes of their process sizes in the memory and suppose a new process comes which has size smaller than the hole , then will it create a new partion of its size from the hole?

Comments

This is implementation part of how underlying technology is used there are 2 ways things can go

1) We can do as you said create a new partition of small size

2) we can do compaction every time process leaves

It purely depend on how its implemented by system unless specified other way by some standard
