Hi there. I have been assigned the following project:
Memory access patterns have been used in a variety of ways, primarily to improve and evaluate memory allocation and page replacement algorithms. In this project, your goal would be to characterize memory access patterns for individual processes and the entire system at the page granularity over a time-line. The goal of this project is to make memory trace analysis as rich as possible, mining for patterns, defining metrics, summarization, and visualization.
You can use the full system memory access traces that we have been collecting from various machines in our lab and for a variety of different workloads.

Any ideas on how to start this??
Thankxxxxx

Ok usually people at least remove the part that points to the lecture and don't just copy the whole assignment.

The whole idea of homework is to do it yourself so you learn something.
