It should be clear that disk striping can improve data transfer rate when the strip siz is small compared to the I/O request size. It should also be clear that RAID 0 pro vides improved performance relative to a single large disk, because multiple I/O re quests can be handled in parallel. However, in this latter case, is disk striping necessary? That is, does disk striping improve I/O request rate performance com- pared to a comparable disk array without striping?

Disk requests come to disk driver for cylinders 10, 153, 34, 90, 120, 205, 319, 256 and 400 in that order at a time when the disk drive is reading from cylinder 99. The cylinders are numbered from 0 to 499. Compute the total head movement incurred while servicing these requests if the disk arm scheduling algorithm is first-come-first-serve.
It is possible to cut down on the amount of time spent waiting between accesses to various levels of the memory hierarchy by using buffers. Please list any feasible buffers that might be used between the L1 and L2 caches, as well as between the L2 cache and the RAM, for the given configuration.
Serial access memories are useful in applications whereA. Data consists of numbersB. Short access time is requiredC. Each stored word is processed differentlyD. Data naturally needs to flow in and out in the serial form.
Suppose that a 32M X 32 memory built using 512K X 8 RAM chips and memory is word-addressable. 1) How many RAM chips are necessary? 2) If we were accessing one full word, how many chips would be involved? 3) How many address bits are needed for each RAM chip? 4) How many banks will this memory have? 5f) If high-order interleaving is used, where would address 0x11011 be located? (Answer should be: bank# & offset#)
Answer the following: A section of the memory space with the address from 0x6000 to 0x9FFF needs to be fully partitioned to two peripherals with the same memory size. The first peripheral's address starts at Ox6000 and ends at Ox . The second peripheral's address starts at Ox ends at Ox9FFF. and In embedded programming, let i = 13, then j =i<< 2; we have j = 0x wise operation, let i = 0x00ff and then i &= ~0x0010, we have i = Ox . And for bit-
Please solve quickly, computer architecture material, we look at 6 points and in two ways
1. Suppose you have designed a Register File. Let say this file contains 64 registers, and each register can store 18-bit data. Then, you have designed an n bit ALU with 4 operations. From the information given above, what will be the value of RS RT RD and n Why?
It is given that on a system, on average, an instruction executes in 1 nano second. Suppose that it takes 20 micro seconds of processor time for page fault. While, it takes 300 micro seconds of disk time for reading and writing a single page. Suppose that on average 1/3 of the pages that need to be paged out are modified. What is the average number of instructions between page faults that would cause the disk to be busy doing page transfers all the time?
