  • A process address space is divided into pages
  • Main memory is divided into frames
  • Page table maps the above two
    • Pages to Frame
  • Page Table is big enough is also divided into pages resides in main memory
    • Multi level pages
  • CPU generates logical address
    • Page Number + Page Offset
  • Now accessing page table then getting frame can be skipped
  • TLB caches this mapping which is faster than ram
