UGC NET CSE | October 2020 | Part 2 | Question: 5
Consider a machine with a byte addressable main memory of $2^{16}$ bytes block size of $8$ bytes. Assume that a direct mapped cache consisting of $32$ lines used with this machine. How many bits will be there in Tag, line and word field of format of main memory addresses? $8,5,3$ $8,6,2$ $7,5,4$ $7,6,3$

NIELIT 2017 DEC Scientific Assistant A - Section B: 56
In a particular system it is observed that, the cache performance gets improved as a result of increasing the block size of the cache. The primary reason behind this is : Programs exhibits temporal locality Programs have small working set Read operation is frequently required rather than write operation Programs exhibits spatial locality

GATE CSE 2020 | Question: 21
A direct mapped cache memory of $1$ MB has a block size of $256$ bytes. The cache has an access time of $3$ ns and a hit rate of $94 \%$. During a cache miss, it takes $2$0 ns to bring the first word of a block from the main memory, while ... word takes $5$ ns. The word size is $64$ bits. The average memory access time in ns (round off to $1$ decimal place) is______.

Andrew S. Tanenbaum (OS) Edition 4 Exercise 4 Question 32 (Page No. 335)
The performance of a file system depends upon the cache hit rate (fraction of blocks found in the cache). If it takes $1\: msec$ to satisfy a request from the cache, but $40\: msec$ to satisfy a request if a disk read is needed ... request if the hit rate is $h.$ Plot this function for values of $h$ varying from $0$ to $1.0.$

To use cache memory, main memory is divided into cache lines, typically $32$ or $64$ bytes long. An entire cache line is cached at once. What is the advantage of caching an entire line instead of a single byte or word at a time?
