[5/5/5] We want to observe the following calculation

image text in transcribed

Arrays a, b, c, and d memory layout is displayed below (each has 512 4-byte-wide integer elements).

The above calculation employs a for loop that runs through 512 iterations.

Assume a 32 Kbyte 4-way set associative cache with a single cycle access time. The miss penalty is 100 CPU cycles/access, and so is the cost of a write-back. The cache is a write-back on hits write-allocate on misses cache (Figure B.32).

a. [5] How many cycles will an iteration take if all three loads and single store miss in the data cache?

b. [5] If the cache line size is 16 bytes, what is the average number of cycles an average iteration will take? (Hint: Spatial locality!)

c. [5] If the cache line size is 64 bytes, what is the average number of cycles an average iteration will take?

d. If the cache is direct-mapped and its size is reduced to 2048 bytes, what is the average number of cycles an average iteration will take?
