Question 1
If a process encounters 5 page faults out of 100 memory accesses, how does this affect the effective access time if the access time is 50 cycles for a hit and 1000 cycles for a fault?
💡 Hint: Break down the total times for hits and faults, then normalize by total accesses.
Question 2
In a scenario where a TLB hit occurs 90% of the time, if the page hit is 80% of the time, and the cache hit is 70% of the time, calculate the overall expected hit ratio.
💡 Hint: Use a cascading probability calculation for combined events.
