Design and implement a Demand Paging virtual memory simulator!
It must be a text based application (NOT a GUI based one).
You can use the Java programming language.
The following algorithms must be implemented: FIFO, OPT, LRU and LFU.
The application must simulate the execution of each of these algorithms on a hypothetical computer having only N physical frames (numbered from 0 to N-1, NThe algorithms will be simulated based on a reference string (a sequence of pages that are to be accessed) that will be either read from the keyboard or randomly generated.
Â
The program should be menu-based and the menu will keep the user in a loop containing the following options:
0 - Exit
Will exit the program
1 - Read reference string
A reference string will be read from the keyboard and stored in a buffer. Each value of the reference string will be verified and validated (or rejected).
Using option 1 again will result in overwriting the old reference string.
2 - Generate reference string
A reference string will be randomly generated; the length of the reference string will be given by the user interactively. The string will be stored in a buffer.
Using option 2 more than once will result in overwriting the old reference string.
3 - Display current reference string
Will display the stored reference string; if there is no reference string stored yet, an error message will be displayed.
4 - Simulate FIFO
Will simulate the step by step execution of the FIFO algorithm using the stored reference string; if there is no reference string stored yet, an error message must be displayed.
The user will press a key after each step of the simulation to continue the simulation.
The total number of faults will be displayed at the end of the simulation.
5 - Simulate OPT
Will simulate the step by step execution of the OPT algorithm using the stored reference string; if there is no reference string stored yet, an error message must be displayed.
The user will press a key after each step of the simulation to continue the simulation.
The total number of faults will be displayed at the end of the simulation.
6 - Simulate LRU
Will simulate the step by step execution of the LRU algorithm using the stored reference string; if there is no reference string stored yet, an error message must be displayed.
The user will press a key after each step of the simulation to continue the simulation.
The total number of faults will be displayed at the end of the simulation.
7 - Simulate LFU
Will simulate the step by step execution of the LFU algorithm using the stored reference string; if there is no reference string stored yet, an error message must be displayed.
The user will press a key after each step of the simulation to continue the simulation.
The total number of faults will be displayed at the end of the simulation.
Selecting a different option will result in an error message but the user will NOT exit the loop!
