Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a system where a program needs to be relocated frequently due to contention for memory space. Discuss how execution time binding can benefit this system while also addressing potential drawbacks.

💡 Hint: Reflect on dynamic address allocation versus efficiency.

Challenge 2 Hard

Explain how the MMU enforces memory protection while translating addresses. What issues could arise if this regulation fails?

💡 Hint: Think about the implications of unauthorized memory access.
