Malloc Lab: Writing a Dynamic Storage Allocator

and assigning memory using calloc (allows memory space '0' to be assigned to the very first bucket). (4.) Subsequently,

Consider that the memory as the previous table = > 300: 3005; 301 : 5940; 302 : 7006; ... ; 940 : 0002;

c) The memory chip reply with the data from the demanded memory position on the data bus.

a. The CPU tells the RAM which address holds the data that the CPU wants to

1. Consider a processor that supports virtual memory. It has a virtually indexed physically tagged cache, TLB, and page table in memory. Explain what happens in such a processor from the time the CPU generates a virtual address to the point where the referenced memory contents are available to the processor.

This unit we covered more specifics about how to implement compression. As part of that, we looked at different methods that can be used and what the benefits of each type would be. For the discussion assignment, I needed to implement Heap’s Law against the output of our programming assignment from last week. We needed to not only get the outcome of implementing the function but also determine how the information we obtained from the result could be applied to our understanding of what the program performed.

For this assignment I develop and either pseudo code or a flowchart for my following programming problem.

3) Quick sort – It also tends to have a significantly high memory space mostly due to the stack

An integer is stored somewhere in the memory; a pointer to this integer is at address 200. Show how memory indirect addressing is used to increment the number.

(a) [4 marks] Complete the timing diagram for outputs Y and Z for the memory element shown below. The initial state of the memory element is Y = 1 and Z = 0, as shown on the timing diagram.

Memory segmentation is the division of a computer's primary memory information into sections. Segments are applied in object records of compiled programs when linked together into a program image and when the image is loaded into the memory. Segmentation sights a logical address as a collection of segments. Each segment has a name and length. With the addresses specifying both the segment name and the offset within the segment. Therefore the user specifies each address by two quantities: a segment name and an offset. When compared to the paging scheme, the user specifies a single address, which is partitioned by the hardware into a page number and an offset, all invisible to the programmer. Memory segmentation is more visible

Equation \ref{e.cost2} depends on distribution of the data as well. Let $T_{cap}$ be the total capacity of disk in a node and $T_{used}$ be the total used space. Therefore the ideal storage on each volume/disk should be $I_{storage} = T_{cap} / T_{used}$. The volume of data density is difference between ideal storage and current DFS used ratio, in other words volume data density for one node is $DD_{volume} = I_{storage} - dfsUsedRatio$, where $DD_{volume}$ is volume of data density. A positive value of $DD_{volume}$ indicates that disk is under utilized and a negative indicates that disk is over-utilized. Now the we can calculate data distribution around the data center. This is done by computing nodes with maximum skew from $I_{storage}$ values, for that we sum all the absolute values of $DD_{volume}$. The node data density is calculated as: $node_{DD}= \sum_{d_{i}\epsilon DD_{volume}(I)} \left | d_{i} \right |$ \cite{jiraissue1312}, where $node_{DD}$ is

Lesson 3.1 is a review of the low-level constructs that we use to store and
