Assume we will compute C on a shared memory computer with a single core and a shared memory computer with four cores. Calculate the anticipated performance increase on the four-core computer, ignoring memory considerations.

Review the Wireshark TCP data flow shown here: Host A -- SYN --> Host B Seg =0 Ack = 919412342 Host A Host B Seq = 1 Ack = 1 Host A PSH, ACK Len: 512 --> Host B Seg = 1 Ack = 1 --- Host A Host B Seg = 901 Ack = 1342 --- Host A Host B Seq = 901 Ack = 2992 --- Host A <--- ACK Len: 1452 --- Host B Seq = 2992 Ack = 901 Which of the following statements is correct and represents the next appropriate acknowledgment from Host A? C. Sequence number 4444, Acknowledgment number 901 Selected Answer: Answers: A. Sequence number 2993, Acknowledgment number 901 B. Sequence number 901, Acknowledgment number 2993 C. Sequence number 4444, Acknowledgment number 901 Activate D. Sequence number 901, Acknowledgment number 4444 Go to Setti

Suppose that every 18 months, new generations of CPUs add another core to the number that can be used. Three years from now, how much extra off-chip memory bandwidth will be needed for a CPU to keep up with the same level of per-core speed?

We may assume that the number of accessible cores in modern CPUs is doubled with each new generation every 18 months. How much more off-chip memory bandwidth would a CPU released in three years need in order to maintain the same per-core performance?
