1. Consider a direct-mapped cache that can accommodate 8Mbytes from a main memory, that uses a 32-bit address and 32-byte blocks
. Assume 4-byte data. (a) Provide format of the address indicating all fields; (b) Provide the cache layout similarly as on Slide H47, excluding gates, multiplexers and comparators; (c) Assuming that CPU generates address 0xABCDE678, - what is the cache entry accessed? - if it is a hit indicate as much as possible of contents for that entry.
Cache can be referred to as a hardware or software component that stores data so that future requests for that data can be served faster; these stored data in a cache might be the result of an earlier computation or a copy of data stored elsewhere.
Please kindly check attachment for step by step solution.
The /var subdirectory contains files to which the system writes data during the course of its operation. Hence, since it serves as a system directory, it would prevent log files from consuming a large amount of data.
