Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a complex reference string in a system with 5 pages, analyze the page fault rates across FIFO, LRU, and the Clock Algorithm, then compare their effectiveness.

💡 Hint: Use examples for reference strings like 2, 0, 1, 6, with 5 pages.

Challenge 2 Hard

Simulate a situation where all pages are dirty using the Modified Clock Algorithm. Discuss how decision-making differs when evicting pages.

💡 Hint: Reflect on the implications of modified pages.
