In the 8086/8088, the logical address corresponds to a segment register, such as CS (Code Segment), DS (Data Segment), SS (Stack Segment) and ES (Extra Segment). The segment register is selected by context, or it is explicitly selected using a segment override prefix. The segment register is left shifted 4 bits into a 20-bit temporary register. This is the same as multiplying it by 16. Then the logical address is added to that result. The final result is the physical address.

What is the difference between virtual logical and physical address spaces?

The concept of a logical address space is simply involved the process of mapping the Logical addresses to their Physical Addresses . Logical addresses are generated by the CPU; also referred to as virtual addresses.while Physical Address is the actual address of the data stored on the physical device and mapped by MMU.


Are network layer address physical or logical?

Layer 3 network addresses are logical addresses and can be easily changed by software.


What kind of memory addresses does a memory management unit generate?

- An MMU (memory management unit) generates physical address. - A CPU (central processing unit) generates a logical address.


How can one calculate the physical address from a given logical address?

To calculate the physical address from a logical address, you can use the base address and offset. Add the base address to the offset to get the physical address. This process is commonly used in computer systems to translate logical addresses to physical addresses for memory access.

Differentiate physical and logical addresses?

logical address and physical addressIn a system, there are two types of addresses: logical and physical. Another name for logical address is IP address and it is set by your Internet service provider (ISP) or your router. If you have a router then you have a LAN, which sets a logical address for your computer. Your router will have an logical address set by your ISP.The physical address is also called the MAC address and it is generated by the manufacturer. (but only to a given extent)Because a MAC address is assigned (by the FCC) to a company to use for a range of products.For example:01:23:45:00:00:00 - 01:23:45:FF:FF:FFWould be their "range" of MAC addresses. They use a coding called Hex which is not to far off from what you know which is base-10 (0-9).Instead hex uses (0-F). 0123456789ABCDEFA = 10, B = 11, etc.Read more: What_is_the_difference_between_logical_address_and_physical_addresses


Differences between physical addressing and logical addressing?

In computer architectures, a logical address is the address at which a memory location appears to reside from the perspective of an executing application program. This may be different from the physical address due to the operation of a memory management unit (MMU) between the CPU and the memory bus. Physical memory may be mapped to different logical addresses for various purposes. For example, the same physical memory may appear at two logical addresses and if accessed by the program at one address, data will pass through the processor cache whereas if it is accessed at the other address, it will bypass the cache.


How logical architecture of DBMS differs from physical architecture?

Architecture is the frame work of the Database Management System. They are simply classified into logical and physical.


What is paging and how is it done?

Paging is a memory management scheme in which physical memory is divided into fixed-size blocks called pages, and logical memory is divided into blocks of the same size called frames. The operating system uses a page table to map logical addresses to physical addresses during memory access. When a process requests data that is not in physical memory, a page fault occurs, leading to the system retrieving the required page from secondary storage into physical memory.


Why you need memory physical address and memory logical address?

Physical Address refers to Storage location on Physical Memory wheres Logical Addressing is used by Memory Managing Programs to refers addresses from Physical Memory and Virtual Memory.
