This assignment is due in-class on 5 December or, if we are not meeting on Undergraduate Research Symposium day, upload to Homework Paging on moodle by 6:55 PM on 5 December.
You should review all those Chapter 9 notes before attempting this. I am not expecting a precise answer.
A real-life problem
A friend comes up and shows you a copy of Figure 9.22
page 826 of the textbook
(also on slide 18 of the
CMU 15-213 notes)
and asks you what happens when their program
tries to access the integer variable w stored at
memory location
0x00007FFF893D8C40.
Using the figure, write an explanation of how the i7 uses the address
0x00007FFF893D8C40 to find w.
Don’t get into a lot of detail. Your friend is in their first programming course.
