Consider a machine with a byte addressable main memory of 220 bytes, block size of 16 bytes and a direct mapped cache having 212 cache lines. Let the addresses of two consecutive bytes in main memory be (E201F)16 and (E2020)16. What are the tag and cache line address (in hex) for main memory address (E201F)16?
Consider a fully-associative data cache with 32 blocks of 64 bytes each. The cache uses LRU (Least Recently Used) replacement. Consider the following C code to sum together all of the elements of a 64 by 64 two-dimensional array of 64-bit double-precision floating point numbers. double sum (double A [64] [64] ) { int i, j ; double sum = 0 ; for (i = 0 ; i < 64; i++) for (j = 0; j < 64; j++) sum += A [i] [j] ; return sum ; } Assume all blocks in the cache are initially invalid. How many cache misses will result from the code?
A stationery seller has a highlighter pen, a country map, and a world map. The cost of a highlighter pen is Rs. 96. If he sells a pen with a country map, he receives the amount twice the value of the world map. And if he sells a pen with the world map, he receives an amount that is less than the value of the country map by Rs. 210. What is the value of the world map?
Consider the following statements: 1. Better memory utilization is possible with non-contiguous allocation using fixed size pages 2. Associative memory is used for providing fast access to data stored in cache memory. 3. Direct mapping of cache memory is hard to implement Which of the above statements are correct?
Assume a memory access to main memory on a cache "miss" takes 30 ns and a memory access to the cache (on a cache "hit") takes 3 ns. If 80% of the processor's memory requests results in a cache "hit", what is the average memory access time?
Rithika had Rs 8000. She invested some of it in savings scheme P and the rest ofthe money in savings scheme Q. She invested for 3 years in savings scheme P and for2 years in savings scheme Q. savings scheme P offers SI at a rate of 20% pa whilesavings scheme Q compounded annually at the rate of 30% pa. The interest receivedfrom savings scheme P is 930 more than the interest received from savings scheme Q.If Rs 1500 is debited from the invested amount of savings scheme P then find thedifference between the amount invested by Rithika in savings scheme P & savingsscheme Q.
