Consider the execution of the following program segment on an 8×8 array A. for i:= 0 to 7 do sum := 0 forj:= 0 to 7 do sum := sum + a(ij) end for ave(i):= sum/8 end for Assume that the main memory is divided into eight interleaved memory blocks and that each cache memory block consists of eight elements. Assume also that the cache memory access time is 10 ns and that the memory access time is ten times the cache memory access time. Compute the average access time per element of the array A.

Answer rating: 100% (QA)

To compute the average access time per element of the array A we need to consider the cache and main memory access times and how they interact with th... View the full answer
