Computer Science Consider a direct-mapped cache with 8 lines, each holding 16 bytes of data. The cache is byte-addressable and the main memory consists of 64 KB, which is also byte-addressable. Assume that a program reads 16KB of memory sequentially. Answer the following questions: a) How many bits are required for the tag, index, and offset fields of a cache address? b) What is the cache size in bytes? c) What is the block size in bytes? d) What is the total number of blocks in main memory? e) How many cache hits and misses will occur for the program

Types of database architectures

A Database Architecture represents the Database Management System’s (DBMS) design (schema). The DBMS architecture makes it easy to understand the components involved in the database system and their relations. The DBMS architecture may vary based on the system on which it runs. Some systems contain both client and server machines whereas some run only on a server machine. Based on the architecture, the system can be classified as centralized, decentralized, or hierarchical.
