Suppose a computer using fully associative cache has 224224 words of main memory and a cache of 512 blocks, where each cache block contains 16 words. a. How many blocks of main memory are there? b. What is the format of a memory address as seen by the cache, i.e., what are the sizes of the tag and offset fields? c. To which cache block will the memory reference 1604181616041816 map? Also... Suppose a computer using set associative cache has 216216 words of main memory and a cache of 128 blocks, and each cache block contains 8 words. a. If this cache is 2-way set associative, what is the format of a memory address as seen by the cache, that is, what are the sizes of the tag, set, and offset fields? b. If this cache is 4-way set associative, what is the format of a memory address as seen by the cache?
