Acomputer has a two-level cache. suppose that 60% of the memory references hit on the first level cache, 35% hit on the second level, and 5% miss. the access times are 5 nsec, 15 nsec, and 60 nsec, respectively, where the times for the level 2 cache and memory start counting at the moment it is known that they are needed (e.g., a level 2 cache access does not even start until the level 1 cache miss occurs). what is the average access time?

Many prestigious universities have a system called a “legacy preference system” which is used to decide which applicants should be accepted to the university. if an applicant’s parent is an alumnus of the university, the applicant will be admitted with lower gpa and sat scores than if the parent is not an alumnus. (there is currently a lot of discussion about the fairness of this system, but universities get a lot of money from their alumni so they are unwilling to change ) your assignment for mp2 is to implement a computerized system like this for a very small prestigious university. the university has two schools, liberal arts and music, each with their own criteria for accepting students. your program must read in certain information about an applicant and print a message saying whether the applicant should be accepted or not.
