Compare two designs of a computing system.
(i) 1KB L1 cache with misss-rate of 11% and hit-time of 0.62ns.
(ii) 2KB L1 cache with miss-rate of 8% and hit-time of 0.66ns
. For both the main memory access takes 80ns.
(a) Assuming that the L1 hit-time determines the processor cycle time, what are the clock frequencies of the two designs?
(b) Calculate the Average Memory Access Time (AMAT) for the two designs

a) Calculate the AMAT for a cache system with one level of cache between the CPU and Main Memory. Assume that the cache has a hit time of 1 cycle and a miss rate of 11%. Assume that the main memory requires 300 cycles to access (this is the hit time) and that all instructions and data can be found in the main memory (there are no misses). b) Let us modify the cache system from part (a) and add...

AMAT = Time for a hit + (Miss rate x Miss penalty)
For a data cache with a 4% miss rate and a 5-cycle hit latency, calculate the average memory access time (AMAT). Assume that latency to memory and the cache miss penalty together is 100 cycles. Note: The cache must be accessed after memory returns the data.

Base machine has a 2.4GHz clock rate. There is L1 and L2 cache. L1 cache is 256K, direct mapped write through. 90% (read) hit rate without penalty, miss penalty is 4 cycles. (cost of reading L2) All writes take 1 cycle. L2 cache is 2MB, 4 way set associative write back. 95% hit rate, 60 cycle miss penalty (cost of reading memory). 30% of all instructions are reads, 10% writes. All instructions take 1 cycle - except reads which take...

Question 4 (10 pt). One difference between a write-through cache and a write-back cache can be in the time it takes to write. During the first cycle, we detect whether a hit will occur, and during the second (assuming a hit) we actually write the data. Let’s assume that 50% of the blocks are dirty for a write-back cache. For this question, assume that the write buffer for the write through will never stall the CPU (no penalty). Assume a...
