Virtual Memory

Virtual memory is a concept that allows the users to write programs as though a large memory space were available, equal to the whole auxiliary memory. The address referenced by the CPU has to go through an address mapping from virtual address to physical address in main memory. Virtual memory gives the programmer an illusion that they have a large memory to use even though the computer has only a small main memory.
