Question: Assume that the 2-D integer array you allocated starts at address 0x40000000 in memory, the size of an integer is 4 bytes, D-cache block size
Assume that the 2-D integer array you allocated starts at address 0x40000000 in memory, the size of an integer is 4 bytes, D-cache block size is 64 bytes and the D-cache is initially empty. As you read the integers in the 2-D array one-by-one, starting with element array[0,0], how many D-cache misses will you see for reading the first 10 integers in case of (to be answered without running pin):
a) cache2Drows( hit ratio of 0.9911)
b) cache2Dcols(hit ratio of 0.8749)
