Segments can be of different
lengths, so it is harder to find a place for a segment in memory than a page.
With segmented virtual memory, we get the benefits of virtual memory but we
still have to do dynamic storage allocation of physical memory. In order to
avoid this, it is possible to combine segmentation and paging into a two-level
virtual memory system. Each segment descriptor points to page table for that
segment. This give some of the advantages of paging (easy placement) with some
of the advantages of segments (logical division of the program).
