  2. Shadow paging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_paging

    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 pages. Instead, when a page is to be modified, a shadow page is allocated. Since the shadow page has no references (from other pages on disk ...

  3. Shadow table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_table

    Shadow tables are also easy to implement in most modern DBMS' because they do not affect the original data, so the way the databases and applications accessing them work together is not affected, unless desired. [6] For example, shadow tables could be used in an efficient backup system that supports large data tables that rarely change.

    A software based shadow page table is a common solution to reduce translation overhead compared to double translation. Shadow page tables translate guest virtual addresses directly to host physical addresses. Each VM has a separate shadow page table and the hypervisor is in charge of managing them.

    The theoretically optimal page replacement algorithm (also known as OPT, clairvoyant replacement algorithm, or Bélády's optimal page replacement policy) [3] [4] [2] is an algorithm that works as follows: when a page needs to be swapped in, the operating system swaps out the page whose next use will occur farthest in the future. For example, a ...

    The page table is a key component of virtual address translation that is necessary to access data in memory. The page table is set up by the computer's operating system, and may be read and written during the virtual address translation process by the memory management unit or by low-level system software or firmware.
