A certain computer provides its users with a virtual-memory space of 232 bytes. The computer has 218 bytes of physical memory. The virtual memory is implemented by paging, and the page size is 4096 bytes. A user process generates the virtual address 11123456. 5.2 When virtual memory is implemented in a computing system, there are certain costs associated with the technique and certain benefits. List the costs and the benefits. Is it possible for the costs to exceed the benefits? If it is, what measures can be taken to ensure that this does not happen?
A computer provides a virtual memory space of 2^48 bytes. The computer has 16 GiB ofphysical memory. Virtual memory is implemented by demand paging, and the page size is4 MiB. A user process generates the virtual address 0x33C25977E083. Explain how the system determines the physical address, and give as much information about it as possible
A given process has a page table as shown below. Assume that the page size is 2048 and that all the pages are in main memory. What do the numbers 3, 2, 6, 7, and 11 represent? Be specific. To which logical address will the physical address 7356 correspond? To which physical address will the logical address (3,420) correspond? On the average, what will be the internal fragmentation associated with a process for the paging system? Page Table Page 0 3 Page 1 2 Page 2 6 Page 3 7 Page 4 11
A certain computer provides its users with a virtual-memory space of 236 bytes. The computer has 230 bytes of physical memory. The virtual memory is implemented by paging, and the page size is 4096 bytes. A user process generates the virtual address 13126533. Calculate the displacement numbers and explain how the system establishes the corresponding physical location. Distinguish between software and hardware operations.
We use the concept "paging" to map logical address to physical address. If the process size is 9216 bytes, the page size is 2048 bytes, how many frames should be allocated to this process? Do we have fragment? If so, please indicate the size of fragment?
Suppose you have a byte-addressable virtual address memory system with 32 virtual pages of 32 bytes each, and 8 page frames. Assuming the following page table, answer the questions below: | Page # | Frame # | Valid bit ||--------|---------|-----------|| 0 | 4 | 1 || 1 | 3 | 1 || 2 | - | 0 || 3 | 0 | 0 || 4 | 1 | 1 || 11 | 6 | 0 || 13 | 7 | 1 || 17 | - | 0 | a) How many bits are needed to address this virtual memory? b) What is the size of the Page field? c) What is the size of the Offset field? d) What is the size of the Page Frame field? e) What is the maximum number of the entries in this Page Table? f) What Physical address corresponds to the Virtual address 0x22? Answer should be in hexadecimal number. (if the address causes a page fault, answer as "page fault" with the proper reason) g) What Physical address corresponds to the…

Consider a computer system with a 64-bit logical address and 32-KB page size. Thesystem supports up to 4096 MB of physical memory. How many entries are there ineach of the following?a. A conventional single-level page table?b. An inverted page table?
Imagine that to save space, the TLB drops the Read/Write and User/Supervisor protection bits. The page table still has the protection bits. However, when moving from user mode to kernel mode (or vice versa), the TLB is flushed. i) Could a process access memory belonging to another process? How? ii) Could a process access memory belonging to the kernel? How? iii) What problem could arise if a process can write memory it is normally supposed to only read?
