This free online course on virtual memory and mass storage in operating systems will begin by introducing you to the background of virtual memory as well as the need for virtual address space in operating systems. You will learn about the function of demand paging, the different steps to follow in handling demand paging, and the different activities that demand paging performs in an operating system.

Then, this course will also introduce you to how page replacement occurs in a virtual environment. You will learn about the different schemes of page buffering algorithms along with the application of page buffering algorithms to page replacement. Furthermore, this course will teach you about the different types of mass storage that are found in operating systems as well as the functions of the disk scheduling operating system.

Finally, this course will introduce you to the concept of RAID structure along with the levels of RAID structure in operating systems. This course will then improve your knowledge of the various operations that can be carried out in a directory and how to organize a directory in operating systems.
