  2. Physical Address Extension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension

    In computing, Physical Address Extension (PAE), sometimes referred to as Page Address Extension, [1] is a memory management feature for the x86 architecture. PAE was first introduced by Intel in the Pentium Pro , and later by AMD in the Athlon processor. [ 2 ]

  3. Executable-space protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable-space_protection

    NX memory protection has always been available in Ubuntu for any systems that had the hardware to support it and ran the 64-bit kernel or the 32-bit server kernel. The 32-bit PAE desktop kernel (linux-image-generic-pae) in Ubuntu 9.10 and later, also provides the PAE mode needed for hardware with the NX CPU feature.

  4. Intel 5-level paging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_5-level_paging

    4-level paging of the 64-bit mode. In the 4-level paging scheme (previously known as IA-32e paging), the 64-bit virtual memory address is divided into five parts. The lowest 12 bits contain the offset within the 4 KiB memory page, and the following 36 bits are evenly divided between the four 9 bit descriptors, each linking to a 64-bit page table entry in a 512-entry page table for each of the ...

  5. Address Windowing Extensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_Windowing_Extensions

    The process of mapping an application's virtual address space to physical memory under AWE is known as "windowing", and is similar to the overlay concept of other environments. AWE is beneficial to certain data -intensive applications, such as database management systems and scientific and engineering software , that need to manipulate very ...

    This means that anything you do with messages or folders in your account at mail.aol.com will also occur in the app (and vice versa). Below are the POP and IMAP server settings you'll need to use for AOL Mail and links to common email app setup instructions. If you need specific help configuring your app, contact its manufacturer.

  7. 3 GB barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_GB_barrier

    Many 32-bit computers have 32 physical address bits and are thus limited to 4 GiB (2 32 words) of memory. [3] [4] x86 processors prior to the Pentium Pro have 32 or fewer physical address bits; however, most x86 processors since the Pentium Pro, which was first sold in 1995, have the Physical Address Extension (PAE) mechanism, [5]: 445 which allows addressing up to 64 GiB (2 36 words) of memory.

  8. PSE-36 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSE-36

    Compared to the Physical Address Extension (PAE) method, PSE-36 is a simpler alternative to addressing more than 4 GB of memory. It uses the Page Size Extension (PSE) mode and a modified page directory table to map 4 MB pages into a 64 GB physical address space. PSE-36's downside is that, unlike PAE, it doesn't have 4-KB page granularity above ...

  9. Memory management unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_management_unit

    If paging is enabled, the base address in a segment descriptor is an address in a linear paged address space divided into 4 KB pages, so when that is added to the offset in the segment, the resulting address is a linear address in that address space; in IA-32, that address is then masked to be no larger than 32 bits. The result may be looked up ...
