A.
Given Information:
The heart of the recent hit game SimAquarium is a tight loop that calculates the average position of 256 algae. One needs to determine the cache performance on a machine that has a 1024 byte direct mapped data cache with 16 byte blocks (B=16).
The definition for the game is mentioned below:
//Declare structure algae_position
struct algae_position{
int x;
int y;
};
//declare grid
struct algae_position grid[16][16];
//variable declaration
int total_x=0, total_y=0;
int i,j;
//traverse through grid to add x
for(i=0;i<16;i++)
{
for(j=0;j<16;j++)
{
total_x+= grid[i][j].x;
}
}
//traverse through grid to add y
for(i=0;i<16;i++)
{
for(j=0;j<16;j++)
{
total_y+= grid[i][j].y;
}
}

Explanation of Solution
Miss rate:
It is observed that for all 256 reads, 128 of them are misses. Similarly, for the second loops another 128 reads will be missed.
Hence, total number of misses=
Hence,

- Programming Problems 9.28 Assume that a system has a 32-bit virtual address with a 4-KB page size. Write a C program that is passed a virtual address (in decimal) on the command line and have it output the page number and offset for the given address. As an example, your program would run as follows: ./addresses 19986 Your program would output: The address 19986 contains: page number = 4 offset = 3602 Writing this program will require using the appropriate data type to store 32 bits. We encourage you to use unsigned data types as well. Programming Projects Contiguous Memory Allocation In Section 9.2, we presented different algorithms for contiguous memory allo- cation. This project will involve managing a contiguous region of memory of size MAX where addresses may range from 0 ... MAX - 1. Your program must respond to four different requests: 1. Request for a contiguous block of memory 2. Release of a contiguous block of memory 3. Compact unused holes of memory into one single block 4.…arrow_forwardusing r languagearrow_forwardWrite a function to compute a Monte Carlo estimate of the Beta(3, 3) cdf, and use the function to estimate F(x) for x = 0.1,0.2,...,0.9.

- Java Graphics (Bonus In this lab, we'll be practicing what we learned about GUIs, and Mouse events. You will need to implement the following: A GUI with a drawing panel. We can click in this panel, and you will capture those clicks as a Point (see java.awt.Point) in a PointCollection class (you need to build this). The points need to be represented by circles. Below the drawing panel, you will need 5 buttons: O о о ○ An input button to register your mouse to the drawing panel. A show button to paint the points in your collection on the drawing panel. A button to shift all the points to the left by 50 pixels. The x position of the points is not allowed to go below zero. Another button to shift all the points to the right 50 pixels. " The x position of the points cannot go further than the You can implement this GUI in any way you choose. I suggest using the BorderLayout for a panel containing the buttons, and a GridLayout to hold the drawing panel and button panels.
