A byte-addressable system with 16-bit addresses ships with a three-way set associative, write-backcache (i.e., each block needs a dirty bit). The cache implements a true LRU replacement policy usingthe minimum number of replacement policy bits necessary to implement it, which means it requires 3bits per set. The tag store requires a total of 264 bits of storage. What is the block size of the cache?(Hint: 264 = 2^8 + 2^3 and please also do not forget that aside from the tag itself, each block needs 1valid bit, 1 dirty bit).

Properties of different architectures

Software architectures are the blueprint of a software system. They consist of all components involved in a system, relations between various components, the environment of operation, and the principle used in designing the software. In other words, software architecture shows the organization of different software structures and helps understand their behavior.
