Suppose a computer system has a memory organization with only three levels of hierarchy, a cache, a main memory and a hard drive. Access times and miss rates are given in Table below. Now find the followings: Access Time Memory Unit Hit Rate (Cycles) Cache 90% Main memory 105 95.50% Hard drive 1,080,000 0% 1. Miss rate of the main memory. 2. Average memory access time. 3. For 1350 cache hits, find the number of total cache accesses while hit rate is given in Table 4. If number of hits are 1350 and cache hit rate is given in Table then how many times data has been provided from main memory?

Given 256 GB of physical memory, a 2-way set associative cache that is 128 KB in size with a block offset of 4 bits, answer the following: 1. How many bits in the address space? \Hint: The size of the physical memory defines the address space since no other information is given.
Assume that a system is using write-though cache. It has 70% write hits. The cache operates in look-aside mode with a read-hit ratio of 80%. The program run on the system is such that it has memory reference for read 70% of time and for write is 30%. The main memory cycle time is 100ns and the cache access is 20ns.(Further assume we are using no write allocate policy) Difference between average write access time and average read access time is (in ns).
There are many parameters that could be used to describe disk performance; among them are: number of bits per track disk capacity (in bits) number of disk surfaces rotational speed rotational latency transfer rate tracks per surface sectors per track blocks per track sectors per block seek time speed of disk arm block-read time number of blocks Some of these parameters are independent, and others are (approximately) linearly related. That is, doubling one doubles the other. Decide which of these parameters are linearly related. Then, select from the list below, the relationship that is true, to within a close approximation. Note: none of the statements may be true exactly, but one will always be much closer to the truth than the other three. Also note: you should assume all dimensions and parameters of the disk are unchanged except for the ones mentioned. a) If you divide tracks into half as many blocks, then you double the read time for a block.…

Suppose cache has a hit rate of 0.89 and access time of 5ns, main memory has a hit rate of 0.98 and access time of 60ns, and virtual memory has an access time of 700 us (microseconds). What is the average memory access time in us?
The memory access time is I nanosecond for read operation with a hit in cache. * nanoseconds for a read operation with a miss in cache, 2 nanoseconds for a write operation with a hit in cache and 10 anoseconds for a write operation with a miss in cache. Execution of a sequence of instructions involves 100 instruction fetch operations, 60 memory operand read operations and 40 memory operand write operations. The cache hit-ratio is 0.9. The average memory access time (in nanoseconds) in executing the sequence of instructions is
If random access memory (RAM) and cache memory (both of which are comprised of transistors), then what is the function of cache memory? Do we need several different forms of memory, or can we get by with only one?

How many bits are necessary to store (i) Page Table entry and (ii) TLB entry, consideringthe TLB entry stores valid, reference and dirty bits.IV. What is the size of the page table? And how many pages of memory is needed to storethe entire Page table? What fraction of physical memory is needed to store the entirepage table?

Consider we have two levels of cache, backed by a main memory (RAM). You are given with the following information about the access time for different level in the memory hierarchy L1 cache costs 1 cycle to access and has a miss rate of 8% L2 cache costs additional 5 cycles to access and has a miss rate of 4% RAM costs additional 40 cycles to access (and has a miss rate of 0%) What is the average memory access time (AMAT)?
