The memory management simulator illustrates page fault behavior in a paged virtual memory system. The program reads the initial state of the page table and a sequence of virtual memory instructions and writes a trace log indicating the effect of each instruction. It includes a graphical user interface so that students can observe page replacement algorithms at work. Students may be asked to implement a particular page replacement algorithm which the instructor can test by comparing the output from the student's algorithm to that produced by a working implementation.

Using written Makefile we can run easily run program
$ make run
Page replacement algorithm implemented in src/PageFault.java
| Button | Description |
|---|---|
| run | Runs the simulation to completion. Note that the simulation pauses and updates the screen between each step. |
| step | Runs a single setup of the simulation and updates the display. |
| reset | Initializes the simulator and starts from the beginning of the command file. |
| exit | Exits the simulation. |
| page n | Display information about this virtual page in the display area at the right. |
