Indicate how long it would take to execute the program, S1=5 ns, S2=5 ns, S3=10 ns , S5= 5 nsec. ALU operations take 35 nsec, LOAD takes 50 nsec, STORE takes 50 nsec and floating point operation takes 80 nsec.

L1 cache has speed of ‘Tnsec, L2 cache has speed of 20 nsec and main memory has speed of 35 nsec. After observing the performance of the system over a considerable time we have noticed that L1 cache has hit ratio of 50 %, L2 has hit ratio of 30% and main memory has hit ratio of 20%. Find the effective, mean access time of the system.

Study indicated that RTA has data bandwidth requirement of 600 MByte/sec at peak times and very serious about security of the data. RTA would like to have the ability to check integrity of the data as itis being written and read and should be able to recover quickly in case of catastrophic failure at any time, You are given highly reliable Western Digital Extreme capacity hard disks with 150 MByte /sec throughput.
