A 3-processor systems implements cache coherence with a snoopy MESI protocol. For each access in the sequence below (to the same BLOCK address), list the coherence states (M/E/S/I) for each processor's cache after the access. Assume all the cache states begin in the Invalid (1) state. Event P1 state P2 state P3 state P1 reads P2 writes P2 reads P3 writes

What are some of the reasons why it is difficult to create a cache replacement policy that is optimal for all address sequences?
For a direct-mapped cache design with a 32-bit address, the following bits of the address areused to access the cache.Tag Index Offset31–10 9–6 5–0a– What is the cache block size (in words)? b – How many entries does the cache have? c – What is the ratio between total bits required for such a cache implementation overthe data storage bits?
In a microprocessor of 32 bit addresses, the tag length will change if we design a two-way set-associate cache versus a four-way set-associative cache, with the same number of cache lines in each organization, and the same number of data bytes per set. a. True b. False
To put it another way, how does an entirely associative cache work?
Make the difference between a cache that is directly mapped and one that is totally associative.
Computer Science Using snoopy MSI cache coherence protocol and given a table of three processes with time, how can I display each cache line and figure out what state it is in on every cycle if three professor are executing code that is interleaved? In the table there are just processes with LW and SW. Example: LW R8, 3(R1) Given: 128kbytes cache line block size. 8KB Direct mapped Cache

Consider a small 2-way set associative cache memory, consisting of 4 blocks. For choosing the block to be replaced, use LRU scheme. Consider that block address 4 and 2 are already there in cache. The number of cache misses for the following sequence of block addresses 4, 6, 8, 16, 2, 2, 4 are?
Take into consideration the difference between a fully associative cache and a directly mapped cache.
Consider about the difference between a directly mapped cache and a totally associative cache.
Assume a direct-mapped cache that holds 4096 bytes, in which each block is 16 bytes. Assuming that an address is 32 bits and that cache is initially empty, complete the table that follows.(You should use hexadecimal numbers for all answers.) Which, if any, of the addresses will cause a collision (forcing the block that was just brought in to be overwritten) if they are accessed one right after the other?
A cache memory has a line size of eight 64-bit words and a capacity of 4K words. The main memory size that is cacheable is 1024 Mbits. Assuming 4-way set associative mapping and that the addressing is done at the byte level. What is the format of the main memory addresses (i.e s-d, d, and w)? For the hexadecimal main memory location 2BFACEDH, find the corresponding 4-way set-associative memory format
