VM swapping

  Virtual pages stored in random order in the physical page frames.

  When a fault occurs and all frames full,
    an existing page must be written out (swapped).

  Three schemes to select the page to write out
    FIFO - first in first out - write out the oldest page.

    LU (LFU) - least used (least frequently) page.

    LRU - least recently used.
