Question

1. Consider information in question 14 above, assume the miss penalty from L2 cache to the main memory is 200 cycles, the hit time to L2 cache is 10 clock cycles, the hit time of L1 is 1 clock cycle, and there are 1.5 memory references per instruction. What is the average memory access time AMAT? Given, AMAT = Hit time L1 + Miss rate L1 x (Hit time L2 + Miss rate L2 x Miss penalty L2)

a. 1.56

b. 2.6

c. 5.4 Clock Cycles

d. 6.2

2. For two variables, n=4 , the number of possible Boolean functions is

a. 4

b. 16

c. 12

d. 8

Explanation / Answer

1. Please provide the miss rate for L1 and L2 which must have been provided in question 14. cant compute AMAT without that information.

2. for two variables , n=4 the number of Boolean functions is 2^n = 2^4 = 16
