2) Answer the following questions. Show your calculations. a) A 64Kbyte data, 8-word block, direct-mapped cache has blocks. b) A 64Kbyte data, 8-word, 4-way set associate cache has sets. c) Assume that we are given a direct-mapped cache of 32-blocks, where each block has 8 words. Memory byte address 1025 corresponds to block index_ d) Assume that we are given a 2-way set associative cache of 16-blocks, where each block has 4 words (1 word 4 bytes). Memory byte address 1025 corresponds to set index 2) Answer the following questions.

Answer rating: 100% (QA)

a To calculate the number of blocks in a directmapped cache we divide the total cache size by the size of each block Given Total cache size 64 Kbytes ... View the full answer
