Answer from AI

Memory architecture in Java includes several main components:

  • Heap — a memory area for storing objects and arrays, managed by the garbage collector.
  • Stack — stores local variables and method calls for each thread.
  • Method Area — stores information about classes, static variables, constants.
  • PC Register — stores the address of the current executing instruction.
  • Native Method Stack — for calling native methods (e.g., in C/C++).

This structure provides efficient memory management, thread isolation, and garbage collection support.
