(MAC) In the MAC address table, MAC addresses are stored in a dynamic RAM. Assume the table was 8000 bytes in size and the memory access time was 100 nanoseconds. What would be the worst-case look-up time if a binary search was employed to locate an address?
(c) The following Sigma 16 program has been loaded into memory at address 0000: load R3,y[RO] load R4,x[RO] lea R5, 2[RO] sub R1,R4,R3 mul R2,R1,R5 store R2,w[RO] trap RO,RO,RO x data 10 y data 12 w data 0 Show the content of the memory writing hexadecimal representation and using a table with 3 columns: the memory address, the contents of that memory address, and an explanation of what "the content (of that memory address) means". As a reference, here are the opcodes for RRR instructions: add 0, sub 1, mul 2, trap c. And here the opcodes for RX instructions: lea 0, load 1, store 2. [7]
(c) Assume that a Direct Mapping Function is apply on a memory system with 24-bit address. The cache has 16384 blocks, each storing 4 words. Calculate its tag, block, and word size.
