Question 3. A computer system has a 1 GB main memory. I also has
a 4K-Byte cache organized as a 4-way set-associative, with 4 blocks
per set and 64 bytes per block. a) Calculate the number of bits in
the Tag, Set Index, and Byte Offset fields of the memory address
format. b) Assume that the cache is initially empty. Suppose the
processor fetches 4352 consecutive bytes from memory starting at
address 0. The same fetch sequence is then repeated 9 more times
for a total of 10 iterations. What is the hit rate assuming that
the LRU algorithm is used for block replacement
