Assignment Content

1. Even though this class is new to you, none of you should be new to Computer Architecture as it exists in the real world…in fact, everyone who has used an iteration of computer architecture over the years and this is evidenced by the Desktop or laptop computers you own.

   For this week’s assignment, Please provide a write-up as an answer to the question below

   Why is the cache memory so important to a computer’s performance even though all systems have MAIN MEMORY (RAM)?

   As part of this assignment, make sure to answer the following sub-questions as part of your assignment

   • Explore the different types of Cache memory and how they differ from one another?
   • How the cache memory differs from the main memory (RAM) in terms of functions?
   • You should submit at least TWO FULL PAGES OF CONTENT…meaning sources, title, etc. do NOT count…be sure to include any reference material you used…

     If you have any questions about the assignment, what I am asking for or anything else, please let me know…

     Good luck…

Explain how a nonprofit organization like Doctors Without Borders might assign overhead costs to their operations in a particular refugee camp? 

Having learned different kinds of costs and the systems used to accumulate them, what kinds of costs would a social media company like Twitter or Tik-Tok, would incur? Are there labor, material, and overhead costs? Are there fixed and variable costs and direct and indirect costs? What are the types of services produced by social media companies? And how do the costs incurred relate to the services they generate? 

Assume you are the cost accountant of a company that manufactures a single product, would you advise your company to adopt an ABC system? Why or why not? Explain 

you are to simulate a dispatcher using a priority queue system. 



New processes are to be entered using a GUI with priority included

(numbering should be automatic). Processes are also to be terminated

by GUI command. Context switches are to be by command with the cause of the

switch being either a blocking call, time slice exceeded or termination.

Assume only one CPU.



Priorities and numbers of processes can be kept small, just big enough

to demonstrate the required functionality. You may pre-populate the

queues initially from a data file. I am looking at the mechanism as you

are NOT creating actual processes, just simulating them.



Functionality to be provided by you:



1. Priority based Ready Queue(s).



2. Blocked list.



3. Output of complete system status after every context switch showing

   ready, blocked, and running processes.



4. GUI for operations/control/output.
