Question: Q2. For this problem, you are given a system with a virtual memory. The virtual memry hads the following configuration Physical addresses are 8 bits

Q2. For this problem, you are given a system with a virtual memory. The virtual memry hads the following configuration Physical addresses are 8 bits long, but only 27 = 128 bytes of physical memory is installed, at physical addresses 0 up to 127. Pages are 24 = 16 bytes long. Virtual addresses are 10 bits long. An exception will be raised if a program accesses a virtual address whose virtual page has no mapping in the page table. Exception will also be raise if this is mapped to a physical page outside of installed physical memory. The main memory contents are shown in Table 1. To find the physical address of a byte, you need to read the least significant digit from the column label and the most significant digit from the row label. For example, the shaded byte in the second row is at physical address 0x12. All entries are in hexadecimal.

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F

0x0

4e 65 76 65 72 20 67 6f 6e 6e 61 20 67 69 76 65
0x1 20 79 6f 75 20 75 70 0a 4e 65 76 65 72 20 67 6f
0x2 6e 6e 21 20 6c 65 74 20 79 6f 75 20 64 6f 77 6e
0x3 0a 4e 65 76 65 77 20 67 6f 6e 6e 61 20 72 75 6e
0x4 20 61 72 6f 75 6e 64 20 61 6e 64 20 64 65 73 65
0x5 72 74 20 79 6f 75 0a 4e 65 76 65 72 67 6f 6e 6e
0x6 6e 61 20 6d 61 6b 65 20 79 6f 75 20 63 72 79 0a
0x7 4e 65 76 65 72 20 67 6f 6e 6e 61 20 73 61 79 20

The page table is shown in Table 2. The virtual page number in the left column is mapped to the physical page number in the second column. Virtual page numbers are listed in binary

Virtual Page Physical Page
0 0x2
1 0x4
10 0x1
11 0x5
100 0x4
101 0x7
110 0x9

a) List the four bytes in the word beginning at physical address 0x34. b) How many virtual addresses refer to the first byte of the shaded word in row 0x2 ? List them ALL. c) How many virtual addresses refer to the first byte of the shaded word in row 0x4 ? List them ALL. d) List all virtual addresses that refer to the first byte of the shaded word in row 0x6. e) If the program loads a word from virtual address 0x5C (01011100), write down what data is returned? f) What is the result if the program loads a word from virtual address 0x64 (01100100)?
