A 2-way set associative cache consists of four sets 0, 1, 2, 3. The main memory...
Consider a 2-way set associative cache consisting of 8 blocks total of byte-addressable memory with 4 bytes per block. Assume that the cache is initially empty. Given the following address sequence, fill in the table below. Time Access Tag Set Offset 3 10010001 11001001 10110110 10101011 10110010
6. A 2-way set associative cache consists of four sets. Main memory contains 2K blocks of eight words each. a. Show the main memory address format that allows us to map addresses from main memory to cache. Be sure to include the fields as well as their sizes. b. Compute the hit ratio for a program that loops 5 times from locations 8 to 51 in main memory. You may leave the hit ratio in terms of a fraction.
Suppose a computer using set associative cache has 216 words of main memory and a cache of 32 blocks, and each cache block contains 8 words. 3. If this cache is 2-way set associative, what is the format of a memory address as seen by the cache, that is, what are the sizes of the tag, set, and word fields? If this cache is 4-way set associative, what is the format of a memory address as seen by the cache?...
Q2. Consider a four-way set associative cache with a data size of 64 KB. The CPU generates a 32-bit byte addressable memory address. Each memory word contains 4 bytes. The block size is 16 bytes. Show the logical partitioning of the memory address into byte offset, cache index, and tag components.
You have a 2-way set associative L1 cache that is 8KB, with 4-word cache lines. You get the following sequence of writes to the cache --each is a 32-bit address in hexadecimal 0x32E4 0x8000 0x1F50 0x8004 0x72EC OxDOOC 0x800C 0x72E8 0x4008 OxD000 0x82E0 a) [7 Pts] How many cache misses occur with an LFU (Least Frequently Used) policy? Give a detailed answer and fill in the table below for each address reference Set Index (in hex) Memory address(in hex) 0x32E4...
1. 2-way Set Associative Cache Memory Consider a hypothetical machine with 1K words of cache memory. They are in two-way set associative organization, with cache block size of 128 words, using LRU replacement algorithm. Suppose the cache hit time is 9ns, the time to transfer the first word from main memory to cache is 50ns, while subsequent words require 10ns/word. Consider the following read pattern (in blocks of 128 words, and block id starts from 0): 1 2 3 5...
Assume the cache can hold 64 kB. Data are transferred between main memory and the cache in blocks of 4 bytes each. This means that the cache is organized as 16K=2^14 lines of 4 bytes each. The main memory consists of 16 MB, with each byte directly addressable by a 24-bit address (2^24 =16M). Thus, for mapping purposes, we can consider main memory to consist of 4M blocks of 4 bytes each. Please show illustrations too for all work. Part...
Suppose a computer using a fully associative cache has 232 bytes of byte-addressable main memory and a cache of 1024 blocks, were each cache block contains 32 bytes. Consider a memory address as seen by the cache. How many bits are in the tag field?

This question investigates cache use in different types of cache. Consider a system of 8Kbytes of byte-addressable main memory partitioned into blocks of 32bytes each. The system has cache of size 512bytes. The main memory blocks are being accessed in the order shown in the tables (the numbers are in decimal). Assuming the cache is empty at the start. Scenario 1: The system uses directly mapped cache. How is the memory address to be interpreted? Address field Value Reason Word...
