  2. Page replacement algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_replacement_algorithm

    The (h,k)-paging problem is a generalization of the model of paging problem: Let h,k be positive integers such that . We measure the performance of an algorithm with cache of size h ≤ k {\displaystyle h\leq k} relative to the theoretically optimal page replacement algorithm .

  3. Page table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_table

    In the diagram above, some pages are not in physical memory. A page table is a data structure used by a virtual memory system in a computer to store mappings between virtual addresses and physical addresses .

  4. Memory paging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_paging

    When pure demand paging is used, pages are loaded only when they are referenced. A program from a memory mapped file begins execution with none of its pages in RAM. As the program commits page faults, the operating system copies the needed pages from a file, e.g., memory-mapped file, paging file, or a swap partition containing the page data ...

  5. Demand paging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand_paging

    In computer operating systems, demand paging (as opposed to anticipatory paging) is a method of virtual memory management. In a system that uses demand paging, the operating system copies a disk page into physical memory only when an attempt is made to access it and that page is not already in memory (i.e., if a page fault occurs).

  6. Memory hierarchy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_hierarchy

    This is a general memory hierarchy structuring. Many other structures are useful. For example, a paging algorithm may be considered as a level for virtual memory when designing a computer architecture, and one can include a level of nearline storage between online and offline storage.

  7. Shadow paging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_paging

    In computer science, shadow paging is a technique for providing atomicity and durability (two of the ACID properties) in database systems. A page in this context refers to a unit of physical storage (probably on a hard disk), typically of the order of 1 to 64 KiB. Shadow paging is a copy-on-write technique for avoiding in-place updates of

  8. Second Level Address Translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Level_Address...

    Second Level Address Translation (SLAT), also known as nested paging, is a hardware-assisted virtualization technology which makes it possible to avoid the overhead associated with software-managed shadow page tables.

  9. Calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator

    Made in Japan, this was also the first calculator to use an LED display, the first hand-held calculator to use a single integrated circuit (then proclaimed as a "calculator on a chip"), the Mostek MK6010, and the first electronic calculator to run off replaceable batteries. Using four AA-size cells the LE-120A measures 4.9 by 2.8 by 0.9 inches ...
