Answer: Cowan's embedded process model.

Explanation: The embedded process model relies upon five principles that illustrates the links between memory and attention. In one the principles, it is illustrated that different processing limits apply to different faculties.

In the embedded process model, Cowan defined working memory as "a cognitive process that retains old and new information in an accessible state that is suitable for manipulating and carrying out tasks with mental components."
