Getting Started

Clone the repository to your local machine Navigate to the project directory and build the simulation by running the command make

Usage:

./main [inputfile] [page table size] [TLB size] [page replacement algorithm]

where:

inputfile is the name of the input file containing the virtual memory address traces
page table size is the number of pages that can be stored in the page table (in pages)
TLB size is the number of entries in the TLB (in pages)
page replacement algorithm is the algorithm to use for page replacement. Possible options are FIFO, LRU, OPT.

The output of the simulation will include statistics on the number of page faults, the TLB hit rate, and the page replacement algorithm used.

NOTE: Find the sample input files in the Input folder

Dependencies

g++ (or any c++ compiler)

The input file should contain a list of virtual memory addresses, one per line. Each address should be a decimal number.

FIFO: First-In, First-Out algorithm
LRU: Least Recently Used algorithm
OPT: Optimal Page Replacement algorithm
