3. 12+2-4 points] We are comparing the two caches in Problem 1 and Problem 2. Suppose both caphes have a hit time of 2 cycles. The cache in Problem 1 has a miss penalty of 15 cycles. The o...
We have a 4 KB direct-mapped data cache with 4-byte blocks. Consider this address trace: 0x48014554 0x48014548 0x48014754 0x48034760 0x48014554 0x48014560 0x48014760 0x48014554 For this cache, for each address in the above trace, show the tag, index and offset in binary (or hex). Indicate whether each reference is a hit or a miss. What is the miss rate?
a) Suppose we have a 64 KB, direct-mapped cache with 8-word blocks. Determine how many bits are required for the tag, index, and offset fields for a 32-bit memory address. b) If instead, we use a 64 KB, 4-way set-associative cache with 8-word blocks, how many bits will be required for the tag, index, and offset fields for a 32-bit address? c) What type of cache is shown in problem 2? How many bits are required for this cache’s tag,...

Address 0 16 132 232 160 1024 30 140 3100180 2180 d. How many blocks are replaced e. What is the hit ratio f. List final state of the cache,...
Question 33 10 pts For a direct mapped cache of 4 blocks with a cache block size of 1 byte, in which cache block will each memory location map to? The order of accesses if given by the operation number. Indicate if each access is a hit or a miss, and what the tag value is for each entry. Assume that the cache is initially empty, and the accesses are in order of appearance. REDRAW AND COMPLETE THE CACHE TABLE...
Suppose we have a byte-addressable computer with a cache that holds 8 blocks of 4 bytes each. Assuming that each memory address has 8 bits and cache is originally empty, for the cache mapping technique, two-way set associative, trace how cache is used when a program accesses the following series of addresses in order: 0x01, 0x04, 0x09, 0x05, 0x14, 0x21, and 0x01.
Problem 6. Suppose we have a computer with 32 megabytes of main memory, 256 bytes of cache, and a block size of 16 bytes. For each configuration below, determine the memory address format, indicating the number of bits needed for each appropriate field (i.e. tag, block, set, offset). Show any relevant calculations. Direct cache mapping and memory is byte-addressable a) Direct cache mapping and memory is word-addressable with a word size of 16 bits b) c) 2-way set associative cache...
Given the following cache specifications: (S, E, B, m) = (4, 2, 2, 6) Construct a block diagram of a two-way set-associative cache. Each block is 1 byte deep. Identify the tag bits, set bits and block offset bits for the address field. The cache replacement policy is: Last-in First-out. Step 1: Initial State Define the initial structure and state of the cache as done in class. The # of rows in the table below must be changed to fit...
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...
Exercise l: Suppose that we have a virtual memory space of 28 bytes for a given process and physical memory of 4 page frames. There is no cache. Suppose that pages are 32 bytes in length. 1) How many bits the virtual address contain? How many bits the physical address contain? bs Suppose now that some pages from the process have been brought into main memory as shown in the following figure: Virtual memory Physical memory Page table Frame #...
7. In a cache system we have the following attributes: 4 GB of DRAM 256 MB of physical memory space 2 MB of cache IKB per cache line Determine number of lines in cache. a) Determine the number of address bits out of the processor. b) c) Determine the number of bits needed for the block offset section of the address. If our cache is 8-way set associative, how many sets are there in the cache? d) How many bits...
