Chapter 12: Virtual Memory
Index of Terms
NOTE: Once you locate the term you want, you can immediately jump
to that section of the book by clicking on the number on the right.
That merely takes you to the beginning of the section, not necessarily to
the place where the term occurs. You can use the browser's find or locate
button or menu option to jump to the term.
