Abstract
The concept of virtual memory is one of the classic computer science abstractions and has long enabled systems that are easy to program and that operate quickly. Today, however, virtual memory faces challenges that pose a threat to the continued progress of computing. This article discusses these threats and presents some promising ways to counter them.
