Virtual Memory

Virtual Memory

Virtual memory is a technique that allows the execution of processes that are not completely in memory.
One major advantage of this scheme is that programs can be larger than physical memory.
Further, virtual memory abstracts main memory into an extremely large, uniform array of storage, separating logical memory as viewed by the user from physical

memory.
