What is virtual memory?
Think about memory space management.
What occurs during a page fault?
Consider what happens with accessing memory.
What is the maximum virtual address space of a 32-bit processor?
Think about how bits translate to memory size.
True or False: A page fault always indicates a software error.
Consider the purpose of the memory management system.
If a 32-bit system has 1 GB of physical memory, how would you design an optimal page replacement algorithm to minimize page faults?
Think about the historical access patterns of memory.
Discuss the implications of increasing virtual memory size to 64 bits. What changes in performance and accessibility might occur?
Consider the trade-offs between space and complexity.
