Suppose a system has a byte-addressable memory size of 4gb. What size decoder is individual memory bank?
`Hey,
Note: Brother in case of any queries, just comment in box I would be very happy to assist all your queries
4GB is 2^2 x 2^30 =2^32. Thus, 32 bits are required for each memory bank..
Kindly revert for any queries
Thanks.

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...

Suppose a computer using direct mapped cache has 232 byte of byte-addressable main memory, and a cache of 1024 blocks, where each cache block contains 32 bytes. a. How many blocks of main memory are there? b. What is the format of a memory address as seen by the cache, i.e., what are the sizes of the tag, block, and offset fields? c.To which cache block will the memory address 0x000063FA map?
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?
A computer uses a byte-addressable virtual memory system with a four-entry TLB and a page table for a process P. Pages are 16 bytes in size. Main memory contains 8 frames and the page table contains 16 entries. a. How many bits are required for a virtual address? b. How many bits are required for a physical address?
1. A system with a word length of 32-bit and byte-addressable memory has ten consecutive 32-bit signed numbers stored starting from memory location NUM. Write a RISC-style program to count the number of positive numbers in it and store the count in location COUNT.
3. Virtual Memory (20 points) An ISA supports an 8 bit, byte-addressable virtual address space. The corresponding physical memory has only 256 bytes. Each page contains 32 bytes. A simple, one-level translation scheme is used and the page table resides in physical memory. The initial contents of the frames of physical memory are shown below. VALUE address size 8 bit byte addressable each byte of addressing type memory has its own address 32 B page size physical memory size 256...
QUESTION 2 Suppose a computer using direct mapped cache has 216 bytes of byte-addressable main memory and a cache of 64 blocks, where each cache block contains 32 bytes. a. How many blocks of main memory are there? b) What is the format of a memory address as seen by the cache, (include field names and their sizes) c) To which cache block will the memory address (F8C916 map? What address in that block does it map to?
3. (6 pts) Consider a new processor. The memory system is 32-bit byte- addressable. The on-chip cache memory is 128 KByte 4-way set-associative, with a 64 byte block size. (a) Draw a diagram showing how the cache controller will split the memory address: for each field. show its name and number of bits. (b) The design team decided to change the cache architecture to a direct mapped one. For each of the parameters in the following table, indicate the impact...
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).
