Textbook Question
Chapter 2.2, Problem 2QE
In the text, JUMP instructions were expressed by identifying the destination explicitly by stating the name (or step number) of the destination within the JUMP instruction (for example, “Jump to Step 6”). A drawback of this technique is that if an instruction name (number) is later changed, we must be sure to find all jumps to that instruction and change that name also. Describe another way of expressing a JUMP instruction so that the name of the destination is not explicitly stated.

What happens if an instruction is written to VA page 30 before it has been approved? In the following contexts, a TLB that is maintained by software would be more efficient than one that is handled by hardware:
Orthogonality is the property of an instruction set design to have a "backup" instruction for every other instruction that accomplishes the same purpose as the original instruction. You are free to enlighten me as to whether or not it is true.
Highlight the data path (shown below) and show control values when a jump instruction is executed.

- a) Write a MARIE program using a loop that multiplies two non-negative numbers , X and Y, using repeated addition. For example, to multiply X=3 by Y= 6, the program would add 3 six times, or 3+3+3+3+3+3, and if X or Y is 0 then the output should be 0.

- Implement the MOV instruction using assembly language code.transfers the source from the second operand to the first operand (destination).The source operand can be a memory address, a general-purpose register, or an instantaneous value.The destination register may be a memory location or a general-purpose register.Each operand, which may be a byte or a word, must be the same size.arrow_forwardSuppose an instruction takes four cycles to execute in a nonpipelined CPU: one cycle to fetch the instruction, one cycle to decode the instruction, one cycle to perform the ALU operation, and one cycle to store the result. In a CPU with a four-stage pipeline, that instruction still takes four cycles to execute, so how can we say the pipeline speeds up the execution of the program?arrow_forwardConsider a multilevel computer in which levels are vertically stacked, with the lowest level being level 1. Each level has instructions that are m times as powerful as those of the level below it; that is, one level r instruction can do the work of m instructions at level r-1. However, n instructions at level r-1 are required to interpret each instruction at level r. Given this, answer the following questions: If a level 1 program requires k seconds to run, how long would the equivalent program take to run at levels 2, 3 and 4. Express your answer in terms of n, m, and r. What is the performance implication for the program if n > m? Conversely, what is the implication if m > n? Which case do you think more likely? Why?arrow_forward
- When we execute a program that contains a lot of if-statements or for/while-loops, the pipelineof Teletraan-2 faces a problem. The instruction fetch stage does not know which branch of theif-statement shall be fetched, until the write back stage writes the True/False value of the ifcondition to a flag register. What should we do to alleviate the problem?A. Don't wait. Let the CPU predict which branch will probably be executed, and fetch theinstruction(s) of that branch. If it is later revealed the prediction is wrong, undo theinstruction(s).B. Don't wait. Fetch-decode-execute the instructions of all branches of the if-statement.C. Nothing. We can only let the instruction fetch stage wait for the write back stage to finishwriting the value of the if-condition.D. Eliminate all if-statements during the assembly process.arrow_forwardOrthogonality means that an instruction set has a "backup" instruction that can be used instead of any other instruction that does the same thing. It's up to you to prove or disprove what I think.arrow_forwardGive an illustration of how the instruction set deals with data and operations using at least five sentences.arrow_forward
