Consider a system with an in-order processor that runs at 1.1 GHz and has a CPI of 0.7, excluding memory accesses. The only instructions that read or write data from memory are loads (20% of all instructions) and stores (5% of all instructions). The memory system for this computer is composed of a split L1 cache; the L1 caches have a one cycle hit time. Both the I-cache and D-cache are direct-mapped and hold 32 KB each. The I-cache has a 2% miss rate and 32-byte blocks; the D-cache has a miss rate of 5% and 16-byte blocks, and employs a write through policy. The D-cache uses a write buffer that eliminates stalls for 95% of all writes. The 512 KB write-back, unified L2 cache has 64-byte blocks and an access time of 15 ns. It is connect to the L1 cache by a 128-bit data bus that runs at 266 MHz and can transfer one 128-bit word per cycle. Of all memory references sent to the L2 cache in this system, 80% are satisfied without going to main memory. Also, 50% of all blocks replaced are dirty. The 128-bit-wide main memory has an access latency of 60 ns, after which any number of bus words may be transferred at the rate of one per cycle on the 128-bit-wide 133 MHz main memory bus. Required:
a. What is the average memory access time for instruction accesses?
b. What is the average memory access time for data reads?
c. What is the average memory access time for data writes?
d. What is the overall CPI, including memory accesses?

Some of your friends have gotten into the burgeoning field of time-series data mining, in which one looks for patterns in sequences of events that occur over time. purchases at stock exchanges--what’s being bought-- are one source of data with a natural ordering in time. given a long sequence s of such events, your friends want an efficient way to detect certain "patterns" in them--for example, they may want to know if the four events buy yahoo, buy ebay, buy yahoo, buy oracle occur in this sequence s, in order but not necessarily consecutively. they begin with a collection of possible events (e. g., the possible’ transactions) and a sequence s of n of these events. a given event may occur multiple times in s (e. g., yahoo stock may be bought many times in a single sequence s). we will say that a sequence s’ is a subsequence of s if there is a way to delete certain of the events from s so that the remaining events, in order, are equal to the sequence s’. so, for example, the sequence of four events above is a subsequence of the sequence buy amazon, buy yahoo, buy ebay, buy yahoo, buy yahoo, buy oracle their goal is to be able to dream up short sequences and quickly detect whether they are subsequences of s. so this is the problem they pose to you: give an algorithm that takes two sequences of even~s--s’ of length m and s of length n, each possibly containing an event more than once--and decides in time o(m n) whether s’ is a subsequence of s

An ou structure in your domain has one ou per department, and all the computer and user accounts are in their respective ous. you have configured several gpos defining computer and user policies and linked the gpos to the domain. a group of managers in the marketing department need different policies that differ from those of the rest of the marketing department users and computers, but you don't want to change the top-level ou structure. which of the following gpo processing features are you most likely to use? a, block inheritance b, gpo enforcement c, wmi filtering d, loopback processing

What is the biggest difference between section breaks and regular page breaks? section breaks are more difficult to add than page breaks. section breaks make it easier for you to view the document as an outline. section breaks allow you to have areas of the document with different formatting. section breaks are smaller than regular page breaks.
