a) In the SRAM region, what is the corresponding bit-band alias address for the bit [4] of the memory address of 0 * 2000008 b) In the Peripheral region, if the value in the alias address 0 * 4200 0088 to 0 * 4200 008B was set to 0x00000001, what is the bit # and the address in the peripheral region that wants to set to 1?
Carefully read each sentence in this question. You may agree/disagree with each sentence (consider each sentence separately) if you have a good justification for doing so (not in more than 2 lines for each sentence). “A daisy chaining technique could result in starvation.” “The received data is saved in contiguous memory regions in DMA transfer.” “The most difficult method of device identification is multiple interrupt lines.” “An interrupt request takes longer for the CPU to handle than a DMA request.” “The architecture of InfiniBand operation is layered.”

Suppose a byte-addressable computer using set associative cache has 2^24 bytes of main memory and a cache size of 64K bytes, and each cache block contains 32 bytes. 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?
For a computer with 56-bit physical addresses and a 8-way set associative cache of 64 KB where each cache line has the capacity of holding 32 words. Assume the word size is 3 and the architecture is byte-addressable. Answer the questions below: a.How many bits are needed for tag, index, word offset, and byte offs. Show your derivations and assumptions. b.What are the start and end physical addresses, in hex as discussed in class, for cache line 300? Cache line count starts from 0. c.What is the total size, in KB, of this cache? d.What is the tag value, in hex, of address 0xABCDEF98765432?
Data and instructions cannot be stored in the same address space due to the Hack architecture's partitioning of the address space. In what ways does its design have an impact?Talk about it for yourself and explain it clearly.Can you tell me whether Von Neumann architecture is the same as hack architecture. (Yes/No)
