Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Construct a simulation of the optimal page replacement algorithm using the reference string 2 0 1 6 4 2 0 1 6 4 0 1 0 3 1 2 1 with varying frame sizes. Analyze the fault rates.

💡 Hint: Consider the implications of fewer frames leading to more faults.

Question 2

Create a detailed chart comparing the fault rates of FIFO, Optimal, and LRU algorithms using the provided reference string. Explain why results differ.

💡 Hint: Track how often each page is accessed and when it is needed next.
