3006	 Anomalies with Variable Partition Paging Algorithms	 Five types of anomalous behavior which may occur in paged virtual memory operating systems a redefined. One type of anomaly for example concerns the fact that with certain reference strings and paging algorithms an increase in mean memory allocation may result in an increase in fault rate. Two paging algorithms are examined in terms of their anomaly potential and reference string examples of various anomalies are presented. Two paging algorithm properties the inclusion property and the generalized inclusion property are discussed and the anomaly implications of these properties presented. anomaly memory management program behavior stack algorithms virtual memory working set page fault frequency paging algorithms
