Consider a hypothetical microprocessor generating 16-bit addresses with 16-bit data accesses (i.e. each access retrieves 16 bits

for each address). provide your answers in decimal.
a. what is the maximum memory address space (number of addresses) that the processor can access directly?
b. what is the maximum memory capacity (in bytes) for this microprocessor?
c. what is the last memory address that the cpu can access?

Write code for a function with the following prototype: /* Addition that saturates to TMin or TMax */ int saturating_add(int x,
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

program code.

/* PRE PROCESSOR DIRECTIVES */

#include<stdio.h>

/* PRE-DEFINED VALUES FOR TMAX AND TMIN */

#define TMax 2147483647

#define TMin (-TMax -1)

/* saturating_add(int,int) METHOD IS CALLED HERE */

int saturating_add(int firstNumber, int secondNumber)

{

/*

FOR BETTER UNDERSTANDING, LETS TAKE TEST CASE,

WHERE firstNumber = 5 AND secondNumber = 10

*/

int w = sizeof(firstNumber) << 3;

/*

sizeof(firstNumber) VALUE IS 4, SO USING BINARY LEFT SHIFT OPERATOR TO THREE PLACES,

WE HAVE NOW VALUE 32, ASSIGNED TO w

*/

/* ADDITION IS CALCULATED => 15 */

int addition = firstNumber + secondNumber;

/*

MASK INTEGER VARIABLE IS TAKEN

mask BIT IS LEFT SHIFTED TO 31 PLACES => 2^31 IS THE NEW VALUE

*/

int mask = 1 << (w - 1);

/* FIRST NUMBER MOST SIGNIFICANT BIT IS CALCULATED BY USING AND OPERATOR */

int msbFirstNumber = firstNumber & mask;

/* SECOND NUMBER MOST SIGNIFICANT BIT IS CALCULATED BY USING AND OPERATOR */

int msbSecondNumber = secondNumber & mask;

/* MOST SIGNIFICANT BIT OF ADDITION IS CALCULATED BY USING AND OPERATOR */

int msbAddition = addition & mask;

/* POSITIVE OVERFLOW IS DETERMINED */

int positiveOverflow = ~msbFirstNumber & ~msbSecondNumber & msbAddition;

/* NEGATIVE OVERFLOW IS DETERMINED */

int negativeOverflow = msbFirstNumber & msbSecondNumber & !msbAddition;

/* THE CORRESPONDING VALUE IS RETURNED AS PER THE SATURATING ADDITION RULES */

(positiveOverflow) && (addition = TMax);

(negativeOverflow) && (addition = TMin);

return addition;

}

/* MAIN FUNCTION STARTS HERE */

int main(){

/* TEST CASE */

int sum = saturating_add(5, 10);

/* DISPLAY THE RESULT OF TEST CASE */

printf("The Sum Is : %d\n\n",sum);

}

Answer:

A high availability hub is not required to enable or use the self-describing agent. You can optionally configure a high availability hub for improved availability and recovery if the hub fails. Network Layer – The network layer is responsible for creating a routing table, and based on the routing table, forwarding the input request. Some of the Devices used in the Network Layer are, Routers: A router is a switch-like device that routes/forwards data packets based on their IP addresses.
