Description

This lecture covers the hierarchical structure of virtual memory systems, focusing on the translation process from virtual to physical addresses. It discusses the properties of virtual memory systems, such as page sizes, address interpretation, and offset field sizes. The lecture explains how to calculate the size of the offset field, the number of virtual pages, and the size of the page table. It also illustrates the translation process using an example with virtual addresses and corresponding physical addresses. Additionally, it explores the address generator schematic in an Alpha Processor and analyzes the number of entries in page tables required for a given program's virtual address space.
