What is virtual memory?

Answer Posted / athavulla syed

In our systems memory is limited but executable programs are
infinite, so at compile time only compiler generates virtual
addresses for all executables.

While executing, memory management unit come into picture
and translates virtual addresses to physical address.

Virtual address may be same for two processes but physical
memory is unique.
