This technique is implemented using both hardware and software. It provides larger memory to the user by creating virtual memory space. It facilitates the user to create a process which is larger than the physical memory space. We can have more processes executing in memory at a time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It increases the degree of multiprogramming.
