CO4 Understanding the hierarchical memory system, cache memories and virtual memory
Section – A
1(a). Describe about auxiliary memory. CO4
1(b). Define memory hierarchy. CO4
Section – B
2(c). Explain the concept of Virtual memory. How address mapping is performed CO4
in virtual memory?
2(d). Define the difference between 2D and 2.5 D memory organization? Explain CO4
it with the help of suitable examples
Section – C
3. Explain various cache mapping techniques. A computer system has a 4k CO4
word cache organised in block set associative manner with 4 blocks per set,
64 words per block. The main memory contains 65536 blocks.
How many bits are there in each of the TAG, SET & WORD fields ?
4. A computer employs RAM chips of 1024*8 and ROM chips of 512*8. The CO4
computer system needs 2KB of RAM 4KB of ROM and four interface units,
each with four registers, A memory mapped I/O configuration is used The
two highest order bits of the address bus assigned 00 for RAM,01 for ROM
and 10 for interface registers.
a). Determine RAM and ROM chips are needed?
b). Draw a memory-address map for the system
