Paper Title
An Ingenious Page Replacement Technique

Abstract
Virtual memory, a technique that allows the execution of processes that require memory greater than the actual physical memory available, is implemented using demand paging, which in turn is governed by a page replacement algorithm. In this paper, we propose a page replacement algorithm that performs better than the anterior ones. This algorithm is implemented using the total number of references of elements in the reference string, and a buffer frame. We have shown the results for three and four frames that indicate its better performance compared to FIFO, LRU and optimal page replacement algorithms. Our algorithm aims at enhancing the performance of a system by decreasing the page fault rate and increasing the hit percentage. Keywords— Virtual memory, demand paging, page replacement, FIFO, Optimal, LRU, Kashu algorithm, page fault, hit percentage.
