Please explain the question below Objective: Show the influence of the cache size on the miss rate Development Configure a system with the following architectural characteristics: Processors in SMP = 1 Cache coherence protocol = MESI Scheme for bus arbitration = Random Word wide (bits) = 16 Words by block = 16 (block size = 32 bytes) Blocks in main memory = 8192 (main memory size = 256 KB) Mapping = Fully-Associative Replacement policy = LRU Configure the blocks in cache using the following configurations: 2(cache size = 0,03 KB), 4,8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, and 512 (cache size = 16 KB). For each of the configurations, obtain the miss rate using the trace files: Hydro, Naasa7, Cexp, Comp, and Wave. Are there conflict misses in these experiments? Why? In these cases, it may be observed that for great cache sizes, the miss rate is stabilized. Why? We can also see great differences in miss rate for a concrete increment of cache size. What do these great differences indicate?
