Memory virtualization is a technique used in computer systems to provide an abstraction layer between the physical memory and the software applications running on the system. It allows multiple processes to share the same physical memory space while providing each process with the illusion of having its own dedicated memory. This is achieved by using a memory management unit (MMU) that maps virtual memory addresses used by the processes to physical memory addresses. Memory virtualization enables efficient memory utilization, improved system performance, and enhanced security by isolating processes from each other.
