Segmentation with Paging combines the benefits of paging and segmentation for memory management. Paged Segmentation divides a process's address space into segments and then divides each segment into pages, offering flexible memory allocation. Segmented Paging maps logical addresses to physical memory using segments and pages. Both techniques improve memory utilization, reduce fragmentation, and enhance performance. The choice between Paged Segmentation and Segmented Paging depends on system requirements, balancing flexibility, performance, and overhead.
