There are three main parts to Bladdely’s model of working memory.. The three main parts are the central executive, phonological loop, and the visuo-spatial sketchpad.
The central executive is a system responsible for the control and regulation of cognitive processes. The phonological loop deals with sound or phonological information. The visuo-spatial sketchpad holds information about what we see. It is used in the temporary storage and retrieval of spatial and visual information. The episodic buffer is the third part, it links information across domains to form integrated units of visual, spatial, and verbal information with time sequencing. The episodic buffer also forms links to long-term memory.
It amazes me how memory works not only for intellectual memorizations and learning techniques, but for everyday recall and emotional memories as well....

Great discussion of the working memory system. How do you think this model would fit in with the Adams model of reading? Remember Adams argues that a number of processors converge on a word in our fovea. Processing of that word is done simultaneously.
