It should be clear that disk striping can improve data transfer rate when the strip size 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?

For a computer with 56-bit physical addresses and a 8-way set associative cache of 64 KB where each cache line has the capacity of holding 32 words. Assume the word size is 3 and the architecture is byte-addressable. Answer the questions below: a.How many bits are needed for tag, index, word offset, and byte offs. Show your derivations and assumptions. b.What are the start and end physical addresses, in hex as discussed in class, for cache line 300? Cache line count starts from 0. c.What is the total size, in KB, of this cache? d.What is the tag value, in hex, of address 0xABCDEF98765432?

3. The advantage of I/O mapped devices to memory mapped is a. The former offers faster transfer of data b. The devices connected using I/O mapping have a bigger buffer space c. The devices have to deal with fewer address lines d. No advantage as such
please no chatgpt answer . Consider a demand-paging system with a paging disk that has an average access and transfer time of 20 milliseconds. Addresses are translated through a page table in main memory, with an access time of 1 microsecond per memory access. Thus, each memory reference through the page table takes two accesses. To improve this time, we have added an associative memory that reduces access time to one memory reference, if the page-table entry is in the associative memory. Assume that 80 percent of the accesses are in the associative memory and that, of those remaining, 10 percent (or 2 percent of the total) cause page faults. What is the effective memory access time? Consider the following page reference string: 1, 2, 3, 4, 2, 1, 5, 6, 2, 1, 2, 3, 7, 6, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3, 6. Assuming demand paging with four frames, Show which pages are resident under the LRU, FIFO, and Optimal replacement algorithms by filling out the following tables. How many page faults would occur…
Go out the concept of wear leveling and elaborate on why it's so important for SSDs. We've shown that wearleveling is fundamental for the ongoing refresh of virtual memory pagefiles. Why does wearleveling exacerbate the problem with pagefiles?
To what extent does disk write caching benefit from the following?
i need the answer quickly
Consider a demand-paging system with a paging disk that has an average access/transfer time of 50 ms. Addresses are translated through a page table in main memory, with an access time of 500 ns per memory access. Thus, each memory reference through the page table takes two accesses. To improve this time, we have added a TLB that reduces access time to one memory reference if the page-table entry is in the TLB. Assume that 80% of the accesses are in the TLB and that, of those remaining, 15% (or 3% of the total) cause page faults. We assume that the TLB access time is 20 ns. What is the effective access time?
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?
