Shared Pages


  • Shared code
  1. One copy of read-only (reentrant) code shared among processes (i.e., text editors, compilers, window systems).
  2. Shared code must appear in same location in the logical address space of all processes.
  • Private code and data
  1. Each process keeps a separate copy of the code and data.
  2. The pages for the private code and data can appear anywhere in the logical address space.
