Calculations on Direct Mapped Cache
Suppose a computer using direct mapped cache has 2^32 bytes of byte-addressable main memory, and a cache size of 512 bytes, and each cache block contains 64 bytes.
a). How many blocks of main memory address are there?
b). What is the format of a memory address as seen by cache, i.e., what are the sizes of the tag, block, and offset fields?
c). To which cache block will the memory address 13A4498A(16) ma?
