Question 3 Segmentation is another approach to supporting memory virtualization. In this question, you will try to set the base and bounds registers, per segment, correctly. Here we assume a simple segmentation approach that splits the virtual address space into two segments. YOU MAY SHOW YOUR CALCULATIONS FOR PARTIAL POINTS. Segment 0 acts like a code and heap segment; the heap grows towards higher addresses. Segment 1 acts like a stack segment; it grows backwards towards lower addresses. In both segments, the bounds (or limit) register just contains the "size" of the segment. Assume a 16-byte virtual address space. Virtual address trace: 0, 1, 2, 3, 15, 14, 13 (only these are valid and the rest are NOT) Virtual address 1 translates to physical address 101 Virtual address 13 translates to physical address 998 Segment 1 Base? Segment 1 Bounds? Segment 0 Base? Segment 0 Bounds?
