I am searching for a way in X11 to "partition" or "divide" the screen. For example the physical size of the screen may be 1920x1080 but what if I want 3 sections like

 A

B C

where A is treated as a screen or division by itself, then B and C the same way. Some subset of the screen. So the application running in space A does not affect the application B or C and vice versa.

If you're willing to change window managers, try xmonad:
