In computer science, execute in place "XIP" is a method of executing programs directly from long term storage rather than copying it into RAM. It is an extension of using shared memory to reduce the total amount of memory required.
Its general effect is that the program text consumes no writable memory, saving it for dynamic data, and that all instances of the program are run from a single copy. (wikipedia)
