Q.In a computer instruction format, the instruction length is 11 bits and the size of an address field is 4 bits. Is it possible to have 32 zero-address instructions using the specified format? Justify your answer.
Please solve and show all work and steps. Thank you. For this question, assume that there are no pipeline stalls and that the breakdown of executed instructions is as follows: add addi not beq lw sw 10% 15% 0% 30% 30% 15% In what fraction of all cycles is the data memory used? In what fraction of all cycles is the input of the sign-extend circuit needed?
Given a pipelined processor with 3 stages and inter-stage registers after each stage, calculate the throughput and latency in appropriate units. You need not calculate the final value for throughput. Just the fractional number is sufficient. Make sure to indicate the correct units.

clock cycle at which the first of the instructions is fetched as clock cycle 1. Assume that if one instruction reads a register during the same clock cycle as another instruction is writing it, the new value will be read. Do not reorder the instructions. Instructions are fetched and executed exactly in the order given below, with the pipeline stalling if necessary.addi $s2, $s2, 1li $s6, 5add $s1, $s2, $s3move $s5, $s6lw $t1, 0($s5)
A RISC instruction pipeline has five stages with propagation delays of 20 ns, 25 ns, 20ns, 70 ns, and 40 ns, respectively. What is the clock period? If a non-pipelined CPU can process an instruction in 160 ns, what is the actual steady-state speedup of the pipeline?

Suppose we had a processor design with 5 stages where each stage takes the following amount of time: IF: 400 ps ID: 200 ps EX: 300 ps MEM: 500 ps WB: 200 psQ1: If you choose a pipelined design, what is the CPI? Assume that we have enough instructions such that the brief ramp up period at the beginning and the ramp down period at the end with less than 100% utilization does not matter. Q2: If you choose a pipelined design, what is the average execution time per instruction in picoseconds?
Suppose we have two implementations of the same instruction set architecture. Computer A has a clock cycle time of 210 ps and a CPI of 2.2 for some programs, and computer B has a clock cycle time of 460 ps and a CPI of 1.3 for the same program. Which computer is faster for this program and by how much? Please and thank you
