Assume that we compile a program with two different compilers for the same ISA, then run the two executables on the same machine M. Version A has a dynamic instruction count of 2.0 x 109 and an execution time of 4 seconds, while version B has a dynamic instruction count of 2.5 x 109 and an execution time of 6 seconds. (a). Find the CPIs for the two executables (Version A and Version B) respectively given that machine M has a frequency of 2GHz (i.e. 2x109 Hz). (b). We further run the two executables on two different processors of the same ISA. Suppose the execution times on the two processors are the same. Using the CPIs from (a), compare the clock of the processor running Version A against the clock of the processor running Version B. Which clock is faster? By how much?
Consider a machine with three instruction classes and CPI measurements as follows: Instruction class CPI of the instruction class A 2 B 5 C 7 Suppose that we measured the code for a given program in two different compilers and obtained the following data: Code sequence Instruction counts (in millions) A B C 1 15 5 3 2 25 2 2 Assume that the machine’s clock rate is 500 MHz. Which code sequence will execute faster according to MIPS? How much according to execution time of each code sequence?
Compare compilers A and B for a program, where compiler A results in a dynamic instruction count of 6.9x10^9 and an execution time of 5 seconds, and compiler B results in a dynamic instruction count of 5.1x10^9 and an execution time of 4 seconds. a. Find the average CPI for each program, given a processor clock cycle time of 2 ns. b. If the compiled programs run on two different processors with the same execution times, what is the relative speed of the processor clocks?
Suppose that each of the 4 processors in a shared memory multi-processor system is rated at 400 MIPS. A program contains a purely sequential part that accounts for 22% of the program’s execution time on a single processor. The remaining code can be partitioned into three independent parts (A, B, and C). Running on a single processor, part A accounts for 30% of the program’s execution time, part B accounts for 18%, and part C accounts for 30%. What is the apparent MIPS rating for the program if it is run on the 4-processor system and the sequential part must be completed before any of the remaining independent parts (A, B or C) can run in parallel?
The execution times for three systems running five benchmarks are shown in the table below. Compare the relative performance of each of these systems (i.e., A to B, B to C, and A to C) using the arithmetic and geometric means. Are there any surprises? Explain.What is the weighted arithmetic mean of systems A, B, C if the 5 programs are executed under 100% CPU utilization as 30% V, 20% W, 35% X, 10% Y and 5%Z?
Consider a group of 5 benchmarks. With an old generation of CPU in the 90s, the execution times of these benchmarks were 10 minutes, 16 minutes, 4 minutes, 1 minute and 8 minutes. With a new generation of CPU in 2020, the execution time of these benchmarks are 5 minutes, 2 minutes, 2 minutes, 15 seconds and 1 minutes. What is the average speedup of the new CPU (comparing to the old CPU)? Note that, you need to determine whether arithmetic mean or geometric mean should be used here.
A compiler designer is trying to decide between two code sequences for a particular machine.

Computer A has an overall CPI of 1.3 and can be run at a clock rate of 600MHz. Computer B has a CPI of 2.5 and can be run at a clock rate of 750 MHz. We have a particular program we wish to run. When compiled for computer A, this program has exactly 100,000 instructions. How many instructions would the program need to have when compiled for Computer B, in order for the two computers to have exactly the same execution time for this program? Please explain how to solve
(Practice) Although the total number of bytes varies from computer to computer, memory sizes of millions and billions of bytes are common. In computer language, the letter M representsthe number 1,048,576, which is 2 raised to the 20th power, and G represents 1,073,741,824, which is 2 raised to the 30th power. Therefore, a memory size of 4 MB is really 4 times 1,048,576 (4,194,304 bytes), and a memory size of 2 GB is really 2 times 1,073,741,824 (2,147,483,648 bytes). Using this information, calculate the actual number of bytes in the following: a. A memory containing 512 MB b. A memory consisting of 512 MB words, where each word consists of 2 bytes c. A memory consisting of 512 MB words, where each word consists of 4 bytes d. A thumb drive that specifies 2 GB e. A disk that specifies 4 GB f. A disk that specifies 8 GB
