RR Campus and EC Campus
CIRCULAR

Course Code and Course Title : UE23CS251B - Microprocessor and Computer Architecture.
Coding assignment:

Assignment question 1:
Write a Python script that simulates cache performance using a dataset of memory accesses.
• Use a trace file with a sequence of memory addresses.
• Implement a direct-mapped or set-associative cache.
• Compute hit/miss rates and optimize performance.
Requirements:
• Load a memory trace file (memory_trace.txt).
• Process accesses and update cache status.
• Display cache statistics before and after optimization

Assignment question 2:

Problem Statement:
Modern web browsers use caching to reduce load times and improve user experience.
• Simulate a browser cache that stores the last N visited web pages.
• Implement LRU (Least Recently Used) caching policy to evict the least-used page.
• Analyse hit/miss rates for different cache sizes.

Assignment question 3:

CPU task scheduling affects cache locality (keeping frequently used data in cache). Implement a task
scheduler that optimizes CPU cache utilization. Use a priority queue to schedule tasks while
maximizing cache hits.
Expected Outcome: A program that simulates task scheduling with cache-aware strategies. Improved
CPU efficiency by reducing cache misses. Comparison of FIFO and LRU scheduling policies

Please note the following pointers:

• All assignments can be coded with any programming language


• Group activity (same team as Mini Project)– Coding assignment
• The problem statements is assigned based on formula:
problem number=(TeamId mod 3) +1
• Submission Mode: online .
• Submission link will be sent by respective subject teacher.
• Submission deadline:17th April 2025
