Virtual Memory in Computer Systems

Virtual memory is a computer system technique that provides applications with the illusion of contiguous working memory, even if it is physically fragmented and may overflow onto disk storage. This technique is widely used in computer operating systems for various applications, except where hardware support is lacking. Memory is a crucial component used in a variety of devices, from computers and mobile phones to digital cameras and household appliances. The paging process involves translating logical addresses into physical addresses by mapping page numbers to frame numbers. This mapping process allows for efficient memory management and utilization in computer systems.
