Abstract :
System Memory Monitoring (SMM) has been developed to observe the current process usage and memory usage in Windows operating system in term to handle the problem that might be occurs such virus, spyware and the failure process that using abnormal usage. Currently available application such Window Task Manger has the weakness, which the running process does not provides detail information like process size, location path, product name and etc. Therefore, SMM is developed to enhance this application, while at the same provides an additional feature such as a graph flow to make the user more understand the computerpsilas memory flow. Windows Application Programming Interface (API) is used by SMM as the fundamental resources in Windows operating system. As a result, SMM able to recognize the running process by providing details information.
