The document contains 10 multiple choice and short answer questions about computer architecture topics like:
1. Which architecture is most power efficient - RISC or CISC.
2. Caches are commonly used to reduce memory access time.
3. Micro-instruction and micro-programmed control signals are used to generate control signals.
4. A write miss occurs if the required block is not present in the cache during a write operation.
5. The fraction of successful memory accesses is called the hit rate.
The remaining questions cover the 8086 pin diagram, virtual memory, TLB, array vs vector processing, and arithmetic/instruction pipelines.
