Core common area

The core common area is that area of a computer program wherein data can remain between the end of execution of one program and the start of execution of a subsequent program using chainloading[1] or in a pipeline.

Named after magnetic core memory, the term has persisted into the modern era and is commonly used by both the Fortran and BASIC languages.
