Galvin Edition 9 Exercise 12 Question 17 (Page No. 582)
Fragmentation on a storage device can be eliminated by recompaction of the information. Typical disk devices do not have relocation or base registers (such as those used when memory is to be compacted), so how can we relocate files? Give three reasons why recompacting and relocation of files are often avoided.

What modifications would have to be made to the free-space management scheme in order to support this feature?
