You are given an n by n matrix of distinct integers such that all rows and all columns are increasing. that is, every row read left to right is an increasing sequence of integers and every column read from top to bottom is an increasing sequence of integers. you would like to determine if a given integer k is in the matrix. you can access any entry of the matrix, and it costs one unit of time to compare two different entries of the matrix or to compare an entry with any number of your choice.

come up with a "divide and conquer" algorithm that solves this problem by splitting the matrix into quadrants. explain why your algorithm is correct.

write a recurrence for the running time of this algorithm.

determine the big-o time complexity of this algorithm. for full credit your algorithm should beat the obvious θ(n2) time complexity. for bonus credit, give an o(n) time algorithm

Consider a direct-mapped cache with 216 words in main memory. the cache has 16 blocks of 8 words each. it is a word-addressable computer (rather than a byte-addressable computer which we normally discuss). (a) how many blocks of main memory are there? (b) what is the format of a memory address as seen by the cache, that is, what are the sizes of the tag, cache block, and block offset fields (if they apply)? (c) to which cache block will the memory reference db6316 map?
