We had some technical questions. Started with 2 short pipelining questions and then 1 big pipelined execution performance question. Then we moved on to cache questions: one where you have to determine the various dimensions of the cache, one about multi-level caches, and one about reading data from a cache with multiple Bytes per block. We also had a smaller question about estimating the miss rate for a small piece of C code with a given cache configuration. The big question was about determining the number of misses/hits for a more complex piece of C code with a given cache configuration, and there were some follow-up questions about how the number of misses/hits might change if the cache configuration were changed.
