Abstract: Most applications in every object domain require memory access analysis for getting efficient realization. In this paper a research of memory access profile is made with the use of several typical applications as an example. Based on this research and using visualization, an analysis of possible applications features is made and some general regularities are marked out. Some examples of memory access profile visualization are made for illustrating stated features.

Keywords: efficiency research, typical algorithmic structures, memory access profile, memory access characteristics, profile visualization.
