Consider that the total instruction in the program is 1x10^9 or about 1,000,000,000 set of instructions since the cycle time is running in nanoseconds.
Q: Consider three different processors P1, P2, and P3 that support the same instruction set. P1 has a 3 GHz clock rate and a CPI of 1.5. P2 has a 2.5 GHz clock rate and a CPI of 1.0. P3 has a 4.0 GHz clock rate and has a CPI of 2.2. (a) Which processor has the highest performance expressed in instructions per second? Show your calculations. (b) If the processors each execute a program in 10 seconds, find the number of cycles and the number of instructions for each processor. (c) We are trying to reduce the execution time by 30% (i.e., execution time is reduced from 10 seconds to 7 seconds). However, this leads to an increase of 20% in the CPI. For each processor, what clock rate should we have to get this time reduction? (Show the calculations you did to answer this question.)

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.

Consider a HW ISA program P1 with the following Instruction Memory IM: a. fill in the execution table for program P1 using the IM. Use the same notational conventions used in the example execution table for P0 below. Any numbers beginning with 0x will be interpreted as hexidecimal; any numbers not beginning with 0x will be interpreted as decimal. b. Show the final values of the registers R2, R3, and R4 when the program execution halts. Again, any numbers beginning with 0x will be interpreted as hexidecimal; any numbers not beginning with 0x will be interpreted as decimal.
