- Use segments to manage logically related units
- Use pages to partition segments into fixed size chunks - first go to segment table (protection easy)
Need to allocate page table entries only for those pieces of the segments that have themselves been allocated.
Logical (virtual) address → Linear address → Physical address (intel 32 architecture)
Segmentation: logical partition of memory - Segment Selector bits exist (segmentation register store segment selector bits usually)
Offset means relative address
