I have this problem from my textbook that I do not understand, despite re-reading the section on segmentation and paging. "The IBM system/370 architecture uses a two-level memory structure and refers to the two levels as segments and pages, although the segmentation approach lacks many of the features described in Chapter 8. For the basic 370 architecture, the page size may be either 2 KB or 4 KB, and the segment size is fixed at either 64 KB or 1 MB. For the 370/XA and 370/ESA architectures, the page size is 4 KB and the segment size is 1 MB. What advantages of segmentation does this scheme lack? What is the benefit of segmentation for the 370?"Can you help me undertand what they are looking for in this explanation?
