Question 76
Which factors directly influence the Effective Memory Access Time (EMAT) in a paged virtual memory system with TLB?
EMAT formula incorporates TLB lookup time, TLB hit ratio, main memory speed, and page fault overhead.

Which of the following are characteristics of the INVERTED PAGE TABLE?
Inverted page tables have 1 entry per physical frame, indexed by PID + page number. They do not eliminate internal fragmentation within frames.
Which of the following conditions describe THRASHING in an operating system?
All four statements accurately describe symptoms, causes, and dynamics of thrashing.
Which of the following memory allocation algorithms search the entire free memory list during block assignment?
Best-Fit and Worst-Fit must scan the entire list of free holes to find the smallest or largest hole, unless the list is kept ordered.
Which of the following statements regarding the TLB (Translation Lookaside Buffer) are CORRECT?
TLB caches PTEs; miss forces main memory page table lookup; context switches require ASIDs or flushes. Main memory page tables are still mandatory.
