Question 1.
What is a page fault?
Show hintHide hint
Think about what happens when data is accessed in memory.
Question 2.
What does FIFO stand for in memory management?
Show hintHide hint
It's like a queue in real life.
3Question 3.
What does FIFO stand for?
- First In First Out

- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about how we handle requests without foresight.
Question 5.
Create a simulation of a page replacement algorithm (FIFO, Optimal, or LRU) using a reference string and analyze the results.
Show hintHide hint
Use a common reference string to compare each algorithm's performance.
Question 6.
Discuss and evaluate the trade-offs between implementing FIFO vs. LRU in a high-performance system.
Show hintHide hint
Consider the resources available in a high-performance environment.
