Show hintHide hint
Consider what happens when your memory is full.
3Question 3.
What does FIFO stand for?
- First-In-First-Out
- Fast-In-Fast-Out
- Free-In-Free-Out
Show hintHide hint
Consider the first one in is the first one out.
4Question 4.
True or False: The Optimal Page Replacement Algorithm always provides the same page fault rate as FIFO.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about how they handle page replacements differently.
Question 5.
Given the reference string '1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4', simulate the page faults for FIFO and Clock algorithms with 3 frames.
Show hintHide hint
Simulate step-by-step filling and replacing pages based on the rules.
Question 6.
Investigate an alternative page replacement strategy not covered in class and compare it to FIFO and Clock. What are the pros and cons?
Show hintHide hint
Look for academic papers or articles discussing LFU.
