2- There are many different design parameters that are important to a cache’s overall performance. Below are listed parameters f

or different direct-mapped cache designs. Cache Data Size: 32 KiB Cache Block Size: 2 words Cache Access Time: 1 cycle Calculate the total number of bits required for the cache listed above, assuming a 32-bit address. Given that total size, find the total size of the closest direct-mapped cache with 16-word blocks of equal size or greater. Explain why the second cache, despite its larger data size, might provide slower performance than the first cache. You must show your work

Answer:

1. 2588672 bits

2. 4308992 bits

3. The larger the data size of the cache, the larger the area of ​​memory you will need to "search" making the access time and performance slower than the a cache with a smaller data size.

Explanation:

1. Number of bits in the first cache

Using the formula: (2^index bits) * (valid bits + tag bits + (data bits * 2^offset bits))

total bits = 2^15 (1+14+(32*2^1)) = 2588672 bits

2. Number of bits in the Cache with 16 word blocks

Using the formula: (2^index bits) * (valid bits + tag bits + (data bits * 2^offset bits))

total bits = 2^13(1 +13+(32*2^4)) = 4308992 bits

3. Caches are used to help achieve good performance with slow main memories. However, due to architectural limitations of cache, larger data size of cache are not as effective than the smaller data size. A larger cache will have a lower miss rate and a higher delay. The larger the data size of the cache, the larger the area of ​​memory you will need to "search" making the access time and performance slower than the a cache with a smaller data size.

Using your favorite imperative language, give an example of each of the following. (a) A lexical error, detected by the scanner
Travka [436]

Explanation:

a. int foo+; (foo+ is an invalid identifier because + is not a valid char in identifiers)

b. foo int; (Syntax error is any error where the syntax is invalid - either due to misplacement of words, bad spelling, missing semicolons etc.)

c. Static semantic error are logical errors. for e.g passing float as index of an array - arr[1.5] should be a SSE.

d. I think exceptions like NullReferenceException might be an example of DME. Not completely sure but in covariant returns that raise an exception at compile time (in some languages) might also come in this category. Also, passing the wrong type of object in another object (like passing a Cat in a Person object at runtime might qualify for DME.) Simplest example would be trying to access an index that is out of bounds of the array.

Explanation:

April 25, 2020

In order for an investment to be considered long-term, it must be held for longer than 1 year.

April 24th is not longer than a year, the only answer that is longer than a year of holding is April 25, 2020
