A two way set associative cache memory uses blocks of 4 words. The cache can accommodate a total of 2048 words from memory. The main memory size is 128 K × 32. i. Formulate all pertinent information required to construct the cache memory.ii. What is the size of the cache memory ?

What do you mean by cache memory ? How does itaffect the performance of the computer system ? An eight-way set associative cache is used in computer in which the real memory size 232 bytes. The line size is 16 bytes, and there are 210 lines per set.Calculate the cache size and tag length.

Cache memory is like a fast and tiny storage space in your computer. It keeps the things your computer needs to use often, like frequently ...

Consider a cache uses a direct mapping scheme. The size of main memory is 4 K bytes and word size of cache is 2 bytes.The size of cache memory is 128 bytes. Find the following : i. The size of main memory address (assume each byte of main memory has an address) ii. Address of cache block iii. How many memory location address will be translated to cache address/block/location ? iv. How can it be determined if the content of specified main memory address in cache ?
