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?
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?
For a direct-mapped cache design with a 32-bit address, the following bitsof the address are used to access the cache. Use the table below. a. What is the cache block size (in words)?b.

Consider a cache with the following parameters: N (associativity) = 2, b (block size) = 2 words, W (word size) = 32 bits,C (cache size) = 32 K words, A (address size) = 32 bits. You need consider only word addresses.(a) Show the tag, set, block offset, and byte offset bits of the address. State how many bits are needed for each field.(b) What is the size of all the cache tags in bits?(c) Suppose each cache block also has a valid bit (V) and a dirty bit (D). What is the size of each cache set, including data, tag, and status bits?(d) Design the cache using the building blocks in Figure 8.28 and a small number of two-input logic gates. The cache design must include tag storage, data storage, address comparison, data output selection, and any other parts you feel are relevant. Note that the multiplexer and comparator blocks may be any size (n or p bits wide, respectively), but the SRAM blocks must be 16K × 4 bits. Be sure to include a neatly labeled block diagram. You need only design the…
Describe why it is difficult to implement a cache replacement policy that is optimal for all address sequences.
Consider a direct-mapped cache memory with 12-bit addresses. The cache is byte-addressable. We have B = 16 bytes per block and S = 8 sets. For the address shown below. Indicate which bits correspond to the cache set index, tag bits, and block offset. Bit 11 Bit 10 Bit 9 Bit 8 Bit 7 Bit 6 Bit 5 Bit 4 Bit 3 Bit 2 Bit 1 Bit 0
For a direct-mapped cache design with a 32-bit address, the following bits of the address are used to access the cache: Tag Index Offset 31-10 9-6 5-0 1. What is the cache block size (in words)? 2. How many entries does the cache have? 3. What is the ratio between total bits required for such a cache implementation over the data storage bits?
For a direct-mapped cache design with a 32-bit address, the following bits ofthe address are used to access the cache. We assume that each word has 4 bytes. Hints:this is a multiword block direct-mapped cache because each cache block (i.e., each cacheline or each cache entry) contains multiple words. The width of the “Byte offset” segmentis 2 (i.e., the lowest two bits of a 32-bit address), which indicates that each word has 4bytes. The width of the “Block offset” segment (i.e., from the 2nd bit to the 5th bit of a 32-bit address) determines the number of words per cache line. A) What is the cache line size (in words)? B) How many entries does the cache have? C) What is the ratio between total bits required for such a cacheimplementation over the data storage bits?
Assume there are three small caches, each consisting of four one word blocks. One cache isfully associative, a second is two way set associative, and the third is direct mapped. Find thenumber of misses for each cache organization given the following sequence of block addresses:1,7, 6, 5, 1, and 7.
