Question 1
Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

Select all the statements that are true about virtual memory systems

a. A virtual address will refer to a location either in the main memory or the disk 

b. Virtual memory should be configured as write-through

c. A virtual address is translated to a physical address using cache table

d. Virtual memory should be configured as write-back 

e. A virtual address may refer to a location in Cache, Main memory, Disk or CPU register

Your answer is correct.


Write-through is too costly because disk I/O is significantly slow than CPU and memory. Write-though is when the
writing happens to memory page and the disk page simultaneously. Write-back is the recommended method
because CPU can write to memory and go for other tasks and disk will be copied the updated page later may be
after several modifications by the CPU.

The correct answers are:


Virtual memory should be configured as write-back,
A virtual address will refer to a location either in the main memory or the disk
