Yes, the computer's pyhsical memory address space can be larger than process's virtual memory address space.
Let's say we are working with a system that has 40 physical address bits. The total physical address space (assuming byte-addressable memory) is 240240 bytes, or 1 TiB. And if virtual addresses are 48 bits in length, that means there are more addresses available to virtual memory than there are locations in physical memory.

17. A computer system implements a paged virtual memory system. Assume a 16-bit virtual address space and a 24-bit physical address space. Assume that the first 6 bits of a virtual address index the page table and the rest of the bits are the page offset. A process has the following indexed page table. Index Page Table Entry (PTE) 0x3800 0x3600 0x3200 0x1000 2 3 Each page table entry qives a hexadecimal page frame addresses. Translate the following two hexadecimal...

18. You have a byte-addressable virtual memory system with a two-entry TLB, a 2-way set associative cache, and a page table for a process P. Assume cache blocks of 8 bytes and page size of 16 bytes. In the system below, main memory is divided into blocks, where each block is represented by a letter. Two blocks equal one frame. Given the system state as depicted above, answer the following questions: a) How many bits are in a virtual address...
A certain computer provides its users with a virtual memory space of 2^32 bytes. The computer has 2^18 bytes of physical memory. The virtual memory is implemented by paging, and the page size is 4,096 bytes. A user process generates the virtual address 11123456 hexadecimal. a. How many entries are there in the page table? b. Explain how the system establishes the corresponding physical location.
