N=maximum number of cores that can be contained on the chip k=actual number of cores implemented(1...K..N, r =/k is an integer) perf(r)= sequential performance gain by using the resources equivalent to r cores to form a single processor, where perf(1)=1 f=fraction of software that is parallelizable across multiple cores modify Amdhal's law to reflect the situation described above

Consider a byte-addressable computer with 16mb of main memory, a cache capable of storing a total of 64kb of data and block size of 32 bytes. (a) how many bits in the memory address? (b) how many blocks are in the cache? (c) specify the format of the memory address, including names and sizes, when the cache is: 1. direct-mapped 2. 4-way set associative 3. fully associative

You need to design a circuit that implements the functions in the following table: s0 s1 function0 0 a + 10 1 a – b1 0 a + b1 1 a – 1s0 and s1 are 1-bit control inputs to select the function of the circuit. inputs a and b are 4-bitnumbers in 2s complement form. the output is also a 4-bit number in 2s complement form.you are allowed to use only one ttl 7483 4-bit adder to implement all the functions. but anynumber of other components (except the adder) can be used.hint: design a combinational logic circuit to modify the input b and the “carry input” of theadder depending on the control inputs s0 and s1.important: lab grade will depend on the working of the circuit & will be checked of by your labinstructor.1. is the output valid for the following input combinations: a. s0 = 0, s1 = 0, a = 7, b = 3? b. s0 = 0, s1 = 1, a = 7, b = 3? c. s0 = 1, s1 = 0, a = -4, b = -5? d. s0 = 1, s1 = 1, a = -8, b = 6? 2. what is the range of inputs (for both a and b) that will produce the valid output for all the functions?

Your friend kayla is starting her own business and asks you whether she should set it up as a p2p network or as a client-server network. list three questions you might ask to kayla decide which network to use and how her answers to those questions would affect your recommendation.
