What does TLB stand for?
💡 Hint: Focus on what it does, not just the words.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
In a simulated environment, you have LRU, FIFO, and Optimal algorithms. Given a sequence of page accesses A, B, C, D, E, A, B, D, E, F, how would each algorithm replace pages assuming we have 3 page frames?
💡 Hint: Map out the access sequence and replace based on the strategy.
You are given Belady’s anomaly. Simulate increasing frame allocations for the access sequence: 1, 2, 3, 4, 2, 1, 5. Determine the page faults with frame limits of 3 and 4 and discuss your results.
💡 Hint: Monitor how frames affect your fault total.
