Question
I need the answer as soon as possible
A computer has a cache, main memory; and a
disk used for virtual memory. If a referenced
word is in the cache, 10 ns are required to access
it. If it is main memory but not in the cache, total
200 ns are needed to load it into cache, and
then the reference is started again. If the word
is not in main memory, total 500 ms are required
to fetch the word from the disk, followed by 200
ns to copy it to the cache, and then the reference
is started again. The cache hit ratio is 99%, and
the main memory hit ratio is 90%. What is the
average time in ns to access a referenced word
on this system? Ignore the time it takes to
determine whether or not a reference may be
found in cache or main memory. The hit ratio is
the percent of the time a reference is found in
the given level of the memory hierarchy.
