this video is like the light of heaven beaming full understanding of LRU and second chance algorithm straight into my hippocampus. dimpsey is like an angel bestowing grace onto my operating systems knowledge
Great explanation, however looking at other sources I understand this is the clock algorithm, the second chance algorithm uses the FIFO criterium when there is a page to replace.
I just wondered how he did that. Like did he actually learn to write perfectly in mirror writing. But I think now that he just flips the video after recording. Still magical
At 6:45, in a test when I am showing my working out, why edit a past set of frames? shouldn't this edit be done in the collum with 4 not 0? this is for consistency.
Hi Nabil, I am not sure if I understand your question; you may be noting that I am visually updating the reference bit in the column that was just updated. It may be more accurate to update the reference bit in the column that is being updated.
The rule is to increment(iterate) the victim page when u miss, and keep it the same when you hit. Second rule is to always start from victim page , if the victim page was protected with its body guard bit then iterate to other pages , and see if they are unprotected . If the victim page has no body guard bit then it will be replaced.
Hi Mohammad, I believe the video is correct. If I am understanding your modification correctly note that the reference bit of the just paged-in page would be set to 0 as soon as the next page fault occurs. That is, there first-chance would be taken away right away.
Isn't this technically Second Chance with Round Robin instead of Second Chance with LRU? For example, the last few reference pages are 4, 2, 4, 0, 3, 2 when 3 is not there in the frame it replaces page 4 instead of page 2 even though page 4 was more recently accessed that page 2 (as can be seen from the reference string itselst 4, 2, 4, 0 ...)
I started the pages with reference bit 0 and when I find a page repetition I change it to 1. And according with some books you change the reference bit (that was 1) back to 0 when you tried to replace that page with another one. After that you move the pointer to the next page and check if it's available to change it. (this process is made below the reference string page). in this part [...,2,4,0,3] you replaced page 3 with page 4, but 4 had a Second Chance in that iteration. Doesn't that mean that you have to check if the next page is available to replace, in this case, 2 is replaced with 3 and 4 has it reference bit set to 0? I'm curious about this topic.
Hi Eduardo, I am not sure if I completely understand your question. However, let me see if I can help here. If the victim frame (say frame 100) has a page which has the reference bit set to 0, and we need to find a free frame, then that page is removed from memory. The frame (in this case 100) gets the new page and that page has the reference bit set to 1. The victim frame pointer is moved to the next frame (101) and it stays there until another empty frame is required.
Why does number 4 leave in the penultimate box if it has the reference bit at 1? when 0 enters, the one that has to leave is number 3, so the bit of number 4 continues in 1. I had it the same until the last two boxes that I have 4,3,0 and 2,3,0 because 4 has the second chance in the antepenultimate box
Hi! If you look at the third from the last reference (virtual page 0) you will notice that it replaces virtual page 0 in frame 2. At this point, all frames will have their reference bits set and the victim frame is 0 (virtual page 4); When virtual page 3 comes in a page needs to be evicted; as all have the reference bit set, then all ref bits get set to 0 and the initial victim page is evicted.
at beginning, 7,0,1 all of them should have reference bit set to 0, not 1! as it is their first time being added to memory, they are not referencing to anything. please see other videos regarding this algorithm for second opinion.
I’m confused at 5:42 when we encounter a page which is already in the memory then 2,1 0,1 1,0 should be there right and the victim frame is now 2 Pls clarify this
HI! The victim frame is frame 1 (0 based on the page frames) when virtual page 3 is referenced. Page 3 is not in memory and memory is full so we need to evict a page. The victim frame (1) has its ref bit set so we do not evict that page in that frame. We move to frame (2) where the ref bit is not set and evict that page (which is virtual page 1). Hope that helps!
@@MadhuryaMozumderRA Got it. Frame 0 (virt. page 2) is not considered as the victim page starts where it left off last time, not the top each time. If Frame 2 was not eligible we would rotate around and consider Frame 9 (virt. page 2)
Hi TABandiTa, I am confident that my video is correct. I agree that the second chance algorithm is controversial but mistakes are made and second chances are often warranted.

This was a great video Sir. Watching it a day before exam and now I'm 100% confident about the topic.
Thank you for the effort put into your video, Dr. Dimpsey. Really helped me wrap my brain around clock/second change algos.
Very concise and high quality video! Thanks Prof!
Best teacher ever. Finally understand second chance replacement algorithm~ Thank you so much~
Great video! Thank you Dr. Dimpsey!
This is great would love to see your take on teaching a clock replacement cycle
Thanks for the explanation from Italy!
Fantastic explanation. Implementing a more advanced eviction algorithm for my pintos deadline tomorrow. Thanks!
Omg you're so good! Thank you so much! I have an exam tomorrow and you're literally a life savior rn! Thank you so much! God bless you ❤❤❤
Glad I could help!
Thank you, Professor!
Thanks for the walkthrough, you made this way easier to understand! I wish you had the working set model as well.
Thanks for the suggestion Mel! I will work on this.
An explanation of supreme quality! Worked example always works well
Thank you for making it clear and easy to understand. Very helpful.
Wow. You sir are amazing. Thank you!
Thanks Doctor, i have an exam incoming and this is very useful
Thank you so so sooooo much iam was in big problem with second chance and tomorrow the control but when is seen you everything ok thank youuuuuuuuu
Thank you for providing wonderful video 😃
Perfect explanation
great lesson!
Great video. Thanks.

Thanks sjcn! May your page faults be low.
great video Sir i enjoyed it

Hi Ricardo, the second chance replacement algorithm is also referred to as the clock algorithm. They are one and the same. Cheers!

Great vid! 9:05 is a page fault too :)
Tried to implement it in python and was getting 9 total faults, thought my algorithm was broken;)
Thank you so much it helped

and how do we determine when it changes?
wounderful lecture
muchas gracias la verdad sirvió mucho ...
You are my hero
At 6:17 victim frame should be 2 not 0 , right?
Thanks

SO Nice

Hi Abhijith, Second chance is neither LRU or Round Robin. It is an algorithm which has some characteristics of LRU and is implementable inexpensively

At 06:20, doesn't the victim frame become 2?
Hi Stefan, Frame 2 was just replaced so the victim frame is the next in line
What kind of writing board technology is this!!!!
This is Learning Glass.
What did you mean by "pages have thousands or millions of frames"? Doesn't one page in virtual memory correspond to one frame in physical memory?
An operating system will have to manage many page frames in memory but as you note one one virtual memory page maps into one physical page frame
근데 이 분 설명대로 victim frame 을 별도로 두고 이것으로 탐색 순서를 정하면 "second chance ALG 은 FIFO ALG 을 기반에 둔다"는 가정을 위배하잖아?! 이 가정대로라면 FIFO(즉, 가장 먼저 들어온 것)가 탐색순서가 되어야 하는데...

@@dr.robertdimpsey2733 aite sir! i finally got it
after watching and referring to william stallings book :)
once again thank u sir
I think you made a mistake there at initial when a process enters in the frame its reference bit set to 0 while you set it to 1
There is general confusion on this point. When a new page is brought in I believe the ref bit is set to 1; therefore it will get a second chance.
what is a victim frame? haven't heard that before
The victim frame is the Page Frame which holds the page which will be evicted from memory
Best explanation found so far. Even better than my Prof did in his lectures.
Wait... weren't you in my class?
@@dr.robertdimpsey2733 No I am studying in Germany. So I'm afraid I haven't been in your class.
The last 3 on the table is supposed to be a page fault right?
HI Robert, you are correct. The second to the last frame (page 3) is a page fault.
@@dr.robertdimpsey2733 Thank you sir!
Why wasnt 2 considered as a victim frame ? in the first iteration of the frames?
Hi Madhurya, Are you speaking of virtual page 2 or physical frame 2? At what point (time) in the video are you referring?

Isn't that the CLOCK algorithm?
Yes, that is correct. This is also called the clock algorithm.
