Frage 1
Antworten
-
is time for a single access – Main memory latency is usually >> than processor cycle time
-
is the number of accesses per unit time – If m instructions are loads/stores, 1 + m memory accesses per instruction, CPI = 1 requires at least 1 + m memory accesses per cycle
-

The formula of “Iron Law” of Processor Performance:
Antworten
-
time/program = instruction/program * cycles/instruction * time/cycle

Frage 14
Frage
What is Computer Architecture?
Antworten
-
is the design of the abstraction/implementation layers that allow us to execute information processing applications efficiently using manufacturing technologies
-
is a group of computer systems and other computing hardware devices that are linked together through communication channels to facilitate communication and resource-sharing among a wide range of users
-
the programs used to direct the operation of a computer, as well as documentation giving instructions on how to use them
Frage 15
Frage
Least Recently Used (LRU):
Antworten
-
cache state must be updated on every access
-
Used in highly associative caches
-
FIFO with exception for most recently used block(s)
Frage 16
Antworten
-
Write Through – write both cache and memory, generally higher traffic but simpler to design
-
Write cache only, memory is written when evicted, dirty bit per block avoids unnecessary write backs, more complicated
-
No Write Allocate – only write to main memory
