Consider a memory system with the following details:

Virtual memory: 32G

Physical memory: 8G

Page size: 512 bytes

Assuming inverted page table where each page table entry requires 16 bytes

How many entries are in the inverted page table?

Solution

Physical memory: 8GB = 2³³B

Page Size: 512 B= 2⁹ B

Total pages: 2³³/2⁹=2²⁴

These are the number of entries
