Paging
Paging works by dividing memory into small pieces of memory (frames) and then logically divides the program into same-size pieces (pages).
Paging Advantages
Easy to allocated from free list of frames
-Physical memory is allocated from free list of frames
-External Fragmentation is not a problem
Easy to "page out" chunks of programs
-All Chunks are the same size (page size)
-Use valid bit to detect references to "paged-out" pages
Paging Disadvantages
Can Still have internal fragmentation
-process may not use memory in exact multiples of pages
Memory reference overhead
-2 references per address lookup
Memory required to hold page tables can be large

How Intel Pentium supports segmentation and paging?
The Intel Pentium supports pure segmentation and segmentation with paging. The processor creates logical addresses, which are mapped to physical addresses by the segmentation unit. Those addresses may point to physical addresses within memory or paged swap space.
Advantages of segmentation over paging?
Advantages of segmentation over paging: Speed. Reloading segment registers to change address spaces is much faster than switching page tables. Segment descriptor tables consume less memory than page tables. x86 page table entries do not have an 'Executable' bit. With segmentation, you can make a region of memory executable (code) or not (data). Segment size can be byte-granular (size 1 byte to 1Meg in units of 1 byte); pages are always page-granular (size 4K to 4Gig in units of 4K). Segmentation lets you make the segment as large as necessary, with no excess (there is no internal fragmentation).
Compare paging with segmentation with respect to the amount of memory required by the address translation structures in order to convert virtual addresses to physical addresses?
Oh, dude, paging and segmentation are like two sides of the same coin when it comes to address translation structures. Paging requires a page table to map virtual addresses to physical addresses, which can take up a lot of memory. On the other hand, segmentation uses a segment table to do the same thing, but it might not need as much memory as paging depending on the implementation. So, like, if you're all about saving memory space, segmentation might be the way to go.
Can combination of paging and segmentation result in better performance?
* Combine Paging and Segmentation ** Structure *** Segments correspond to logical units: code, data, stack. Segments vary in size and are often large. *** Each segment contains one or more (fixed-size) pages. ** Two levels of mapping to make tables manageable (2 look-ups!) *** Page table for each segment. * Segments Pages Advantages ** Advantages of Segments *** Supports sparse address spaces. If segment is not used, no need for page table. Decreases memory required for page tables. ** Advantages of Paging*** Eliminate external fragmentation. ** Advantages of Both. Increases flexibility of sharing. Share at two levels: Page or segment (entire page table). * Segments + Pages Disadvantages ** Internal fragmentation increases. Last page of every segment in every process . ** Increases overhead of accessing memory *** 1 or 2 overhead references for every real reference. ** Large page tables *** Two potential solutions: Page the user page tables (multilevel page table), Inverted page table.
What are the Advantages and disadvantages of market segmentation?
Advantages of market segmentation include delivering personalized products/services, targeting specific customer groups effectively, and improving customer satisfaction. Disadvantages might involve increased costs due to customization, potential market cannibalization, and difficulties in managing multiple segmented strategies.
Why paging is faster than segmentation?
Paging is a technique with the help of which we can divide the memory into pages which help us to easly access the files and it also decreases the Execution time (Saves SYSTEM time). It also creates a mirage of Memory.
