It usually means that a software program is installed there, or has told the system that it is not using, but WILL use this part of memory for storage.
That place is 'random access memory' - or RAM.
the stores or save data
Semipermanent memory is a part of processor memory that stores the programs for call processing, charging, and exchange maintenance procedures, and tables with data for digit analysis, call routing and charging, and so on.
When your computer is shut down, the data is stored on your hard disc drive. RAM stores the operating system while the computer is running. Hard discs are non-volatile, so it will always be there. However RAM is volatile, and once you do not supply power to it, all memory is lost.
All data is stored in the same memory locations being it permanent or temporary memory, programs and data are essentially the same thing . The way that the data is differentiated is by using memory locations assigned to data string or information. In other words different data location address's for different data bits. Hope i helped.

It stores the temporary data in its RAM (random access memory). That's why higher the RAM, more is the temporary data that can be stored and hence more number of programs or softwares can be run concurrently (or a program with higher memory requirement will run faster)
The role of memory to store both data and programs is known as the stored program concept. Memory stores three types of items.
C: is most common.
RAM
It stores data in tables. Tables have rows and column. These tables are created using SQL. And data from these tables are also retrieved using SQL

ROM, or Read Only Memory, stores data or programs. These programs perform a specific function, such as controlling access to video cards or sound devices.
Input devices sends data to the central processing unit. Central processing unit (CPU) excutes computer instructions. Memory holds data and programs currently in use. In the same time secondary storage devices stores data and programs. Lastly output devices make processed data (information) available.
