Consider a virtual memory system with 24-bit virtual byte addresses and a physical memory of 64Kbytes. Each memory page consists of 4Kbytes. Answer the following questions.

(a) Determine the size of each page table entry in bits if each entry contains a valid bit, a dirty bit, and a use bit, in addition to physical page number.

(b) How many entries does such page table must have to span the complete virtual space? Does the physical memory have enough capacity to store the page table?

(c) Assume the virtual memory system is implemented with a fully associative TLB with a total of 16 entries. Determine the size of each entry of the TLB. Make sure to label the width of all fields.

(d) Assume the virtual memory system is implemented with a 4-way set-associative TLB with a total of 16 entries. Determine the size of each entry of the TLB. Make sure to label the width of all fields.
