The following figure shows the address that is going from a certain processor to a direct-mapped cache. The address is divided into fields. The index of the first bit and the last bit of each field is written below it. Calculate the size of the data that is stored in the cache, in Kibytes, and the total number of bits within the cache, in Kibits.
TAG = 31 - 16
INDEX = 15 - 6
BLOCK OFFSET = 5 - 2
BYTE OFFSET = 1 - 0
ANSWER:--
GIVEN THAT:--
Block offset bits = 0 to 5 =>6 bits.
Therefore block size = 2^6 = 64 B
Index bits = 6 to 15 => 10 bits
Therefore total # of block inside cache = 2^10= 1K blocks.
Therefore size of data stored in cache = Total # of block inside cache * size of each block = 1k*64 = 64K Byte = 62.5Kibytes
Tag bits = 16 to 31 = 16 bits.
Therefore total # of bits for one block entry of cache = 16 tag bits + 1 valid bit + 512 data bits = 529 bits
Therefore total # of bits within cache = 529 * 1K = 529Kbits = 529*1024 = 541696 bits = 529Kibits.

Question 6 For the following figure shows a hypothetical memory hierarchy going from a virtual address to L2 cache access. The page size is 8KB, the TLB is direct mapped with 128 entries. The L1 cache is a direct mapped 8 KB, and the L2 cache is 2MB and direct mapped. Both use 64 byte blocks. The virtual address is 64 bits and the physical address is 41 bits. For each block in the figure below, fill in the number...

Design a 256KB (note the B) direct‐mapped data cache that uses a 32‐bit address and 8 words per block. Calculate the following: How many bits are used for the byte offset and why? How many bits are used for the set (index) field? How many bits are used for the tag? What’s the overhead for that cache?
For a 16K-byte, direct-mapped cache, suppose the block size is 32 bytes, draw a cache diagram. Indicate the block size, number of blocks, and address field decomposition (block offset, index, and tag bit width) assuming a 32-bit memory address.
