A)

Program Plan Intro

Given Information:

The given code is:

// define structure

square point_color

{

// variable declaration

int c;

int m;

int y;

int k;

};

// declare structure array

struct point_color square[16][16];

int i,j;

// traverse through the array

for(i=0;i<16;i++)

{

//traverse through elements

for(j=0;j<16;j++)

{

//square all elements of the 2-D array

square[i][j].c=0;

square[i][j].m=0;

square[i][j].y=1;

square[i][j].k=0;

}

}

Write hit:

If the information in the cache is reserved or in dirty state then the cache line is updated in its place without updating memory set from its state to dirty.

  • If the state of information is in valid state then it executes a write-through operation.
  • It then updates the memory and block and changes its blocked state to reserved state.

Write miss:

A partial cache line write is handed as a read miss followed by a write hit. All the other caches are left in the invalid state and the reserved state is occupied by the current state.

B)

In a computer with a 32-bit data-bus, how many 4-bit wide memory components are used? the answer to this part is 32/4 = 8 components (2-bit wide) I need the answer to part two, please   If the size of each 4-bit memory component is 4 x n cells where n = 1G (i.e., 4 x n uniquely addressable locations—n : row, 4 : 2 column/width), what is the total capacity of the memory system? Show your answer in power of 2. (hint: 1000 ~ 210)
A 2-way set-associative cache consists of four sets. Main memory contains 2K blocks of 8 bytes each and byte addressing is used.Q.) Compute the hit ratio for a program that loops three times from addresses 0x8 to 0x33 in main memory. You may leave the hit ratio in terms of a fraction.
A computer is using a fully associative cache and has 216 bytes of main memory (byte addressable) and a cache of 64 blocks, where each block contains 32 bytes. a. How many blocks of main memory are there? b. What will be the sizes of the tag, index, and byte offset fields? c. To which cache set will the memory address 0xF8C9(hexadecimal) map?
