Interactive Aging page replacement simulator: each page has an 8-bit shift-register counter. On each clock tick, every counter shifts right and the reference bit is inserted at the top; the page with the smallest counter is evicted.

Press play or step forward to begin. Aging gives each page an 8-bit counter. A reference sets the page's R bit. On every clock tick, each counter shifts right by one and the R bit is dropped into the leftmost (most significant) position, then R is cleared. On a fault the page with the smallest counter — the one referenced least, and least recently — is evicted. Leftmost bit = most recent interval.
