dynamic

Last modified: Monday, June 24, 2002 

Refers to actions that take place at the moment they are needed rather than in advance. For example, many programs perform dynamic memory allocation, which means that they do not reserve memory ahead of time, but seize sections of memory when needed. In general, such programs require less memory, although they may run a little more slowly.

Also see dynamic HTML and dynamic URL.

The opposite of dynamic is static.
