A computer system with a word length of 32 bits has a 16 MB byte-addressable main memory and a 64 KB, 4-way set associative cache memory with a block size of 256 bytes. Consider the following four physical addresses represented in hexadecimal notation.

A1 = 0x42C8A4, A2 = 0x546888, A3 = 0x6A289C, A4 = 0x5E4880

Which one of the following is TRUE?

A certain processor deploys a single-level cache. The cache block size is 8 words and the word size is 4 bytes. The memory system uses a $60-\mathrm{MHz}$ clock. To service a cache miss, the memory controller first takes 1 cycle to accept the starting address of the block, it then takes 3 cycles to fetch all the eight words of the block, and finally transmits the words of the requested block at the rate of 1 word per cycle. The maximum bandwidth for the memory system when the program running on the processor issues a series of read operations is _________ $\times 10^6$ bytes $/ \mathrm{sec}$.

The size of the physical address space of a processor is $${2^P}$$ bytes. The word length is $${2^W}$$ bytes. The capacity of cache memory is $${2^N}$$ bytes. The size of each cache block is $${2^M}$$ words. For a $$K$$-way set-associative cache memory, the length (in number of bits) of the tag field is

The width of the physical address on a machine is $$40$$ bits. The width of the tag field in a $$512$$ $$KB$$ $$8$$-way set associative cache is _____________ bits.
