Tlbased
Tlbased, often written as TLB-based, is a term used in computer science to describe techniques that rely on the translation lookaside buffer (TLB) to accelerate virtual memory address translation. The TLB is a small, fast cache that stores recent virtual-to-physical address mappings, allowing the memory management unit to translate addresses quickly without walking the full page table.
In operation, a memory reference first checks the TLB. If the translation is present (a TLB hit),
TLBased approaches are central to operating system design and virtualization. In virtualized environments, additional layers such
Advantages of TLB-based translation include reduced latency and higher throughput for memory accesses, while disadvantages involve
