what are its advantages how is segmentation


What are its advantages? How is segmentation implemented in typical microprocessors?

The first benefit that memory segmentation has is that only 16 bit registers are necessary both to store segment base address and offset address. This makes the internal circuitry easier to build as it removes the requirement for 20 bits register in case linear addressing method is used. The second benefit is relocatability.
