If a computer which has a 32 bit word has a 34 bit byte addressable memory space how much memory is that. Express your answer in units of megabytes or gigabytes (its a test question, it doesn't need to make sense).
Homework Answers
34 bit address means The main memory or physical
memory is 
= 16GB because memory is byte addressable
and word size is 32 bit = 4 bytes, number of words in memory =
16GB/4B = 
words in memory each of 4 byte

A certain byte-addressable computer system has 32-bit words, a virtual address space of 4GB, and a physical address space of 1GB. The page size for this system is 4 KB. Assume each entry in the page table is rounded up to 4 bytes. a) Compute the size of the page table in bytes. b) Assume this virtual memory system is implemented with a 4-way set associative TLB (Translation Lookaside Buffer) with a total of 256 address translations. Compute the size...

A byte-addressable memory system contains four memory modules each of which is 32 bits wide by 2^28 cells deep. The system employs a 1 MB 2-way set associative cache with 128-byte cache lines. It also uses a 32-bit CPU-to-memory data bus as well as 32-bit physical addresses. Each memory module requires 4 clock cycles to perform either a read or a write operation. a) Assuming that the memory system is low order interleaved, show the proper 32-bit format for physical...
