Abstract
In this article we seek to compare the memory management sub-systems of two popular and freely available operating systems - FreeBSD and Linux. First a framework is developed, spelling out the components of a generic and modern memory management system. The framework is then used in a design level comparison of memory management in the two operating systems. (Also cross-referenced as UMIACS-TR-98-45)
