Suppose we have a memory and a 2-way set-associative cache with the following characteristics. Memory is byte addressable. Memory addresses are 16 bits. The cache has 64 lines and each cache line holds 8 bytes of data (a) Show the memory address format. Memory address (b) Given a sequence of four binary memory addresses in the order they are used to reference 0010 1101 1011 0011 memory, indicate whether that reference is a hit or a miss. Assume that the cache is initially empty. 0010 1101 1011 1000 0110 1101 1011 0111 You need to show the calculation. 1010 1101 1011 1000
