LRU in Java Language

In memory management, page replacement algorithms play a very vital part of keeping the main memory filled with fresh pages. One of the algorithms called Least Recently Used (LRU) page replacement algorithm works on the concept that it replaces those pages first which are the oldest and have been least referred. To implement this, a counter called an “age bit” is maintained, which keeps track of which page is to be referred and when it is to be referred. It ensures that the page which was least recently used is discarded to make space for the new page. When the page requested by the user is not present in the RAM, then a page fault occurs. When the page requested by the user is already present in the RAM, then page hit occurs. Let us understand LRU with an example.
Example
Reference String = 7 0 1 2 0 3 0 4 2 3
Number of iteration = 10
Page frame = 3

7	0	1	2	0	3	0	4	2	3
1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
7	7	7	2	2	2	2	4	4	4
	0	0	0	0	0	0	0	0	3
		1	1	1	3	3	3	2	2
F	F	F	F		F		F	F	F

Number of page fault = 8
Number of page hit = 2

Program in Java

import java.util.*;
class Lru
{
int p[],n,fr[],m,fs[],index,k,l,flag1=0,flag2=0,pf=0,framesize=3,i,j;
Scanner src=new Scanner(System.in);
void read()
{
System.out.println("Enter page table size");
n=src.nextInt();
p=new int[n];
System.out.println("Enter the Reference String ");
for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
p[i]=src.nextInt();
System.out.println("Enter the Number of frames ");
m=src.nextInt();
fr=new int[m];
fs=new int[m];
}
void display()
{
System.out.println("\n");
for(i=0;i<m;i++)
{
if(fr[i]==-1)
System.out.println("[ ]");
else
System.out.println("["+fr[i]+"]");
}
}
void lru()
{
for(i=0;i<m;i++)
{
fr[i]=-1;
}
for(j=0;j<n;j++)
{
flag1=0;flag2=0;
for(i=0;i<m;i++)
{
if(fr[i]==p[j])
{
flag1=1;
flag2=1;
break;
}
}
if(flag1==0)
{
for(i=0;i<m;i++)
{
if(fr[i]==-1)
{
fr[i]=p[j];
flag2=1;
break;
}
}
}
if(flag2==0)
{
for(i=0;i<3;i++)
fs[i]=0;
for(k=j-1,l=1;l<=framesize-1;l++,k--)
{
for(i=0;i<3;i++)
{
if(fr[i]==p[k])
fs[i]=1;
}
}
for(i=0;i<3;i++)
{
if(fs[i]==0)
index=i;
}
fr[index]=p[j];
pf++;
}
System.out.print("Page : "+p[j]);
display();
}
System.out.println("\n Number of page fault:"+pf);
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
Lru a=new Lru();
a.read();
a.lru();
a.display();
}
}
