2. Consider a computer with the following characteristics: total of 1Mbyte of main memory; Content of each addressable location is 1 byte; block size of 16 bytes; and cache size of 64 Kbytes. (a) For the main memory addresses of F0010, 01234, and CABBE, give the corresponding tag, cache line address, and word offsets for a direct-mapped cache. (b) Give any two main memory addresses with different tags that map to the same cache slot for a direct-mapped cache. (c) For the main memory addresses of F0010 and CABBE, give the corresponding tag and offset values for a fully-associative cache. (d) For the main memory addresses of F0010 and CABBE, give the corresponding tag, cache set, and offset values for a two-way set-associative cache.
. Consider a system that has multiple processors where eachprocessor has its own cache, but main memory is shared among allprocessors.1. a) Which cache write policy would you use?2. b) The cache coherency problem. With regard to the systemjust described, what problems are caused if a processor has acopy of memory block A in its cache and a second processor,also having a copy of A in its cache, then updates mainmemory block A? Can you think of a way (perhaps morethan one) of preventing this situation, or lessening itseffects?

Consider a virtual memory system with the following characteristics for accessing memory: 1 nanosecond for a read operation with a hit in cache 5 nanoseconds for a read operation with a miss in cache 2 nanoseconds for a write operation with a hit in cache 10 nanoseconds for a write operation with a miss in cache The cache hit ratio is 0.9 If a sequence of instructions were executed: 100 instruction fetch operations, 60 memory operand read operations, and 40 memory operand write operations, what would be the average memory access time (in nanoseconds) in executing the sequence of instructions:
Question 15 kk .Consider a microprocessor system where the processor has a 16-bit data bus and a 20-bit address bus. Determine (in bytes) the maximum size of the bit-addressable memory that can be connected to this processor. In continuation to the previous exercise, now consider a byte-addressable memory with a 32-bit address bus. What is the maximum memory size (in bytes) that can be accessed?
