Explanation of Solution
Given,
The processor P1 includes clock rate of 4 GHz with 0.9 Cycles Per Instructions (CPI) and requires
The processor P2 includes clock rate of 3 GHz with 0.75 CPI and requires
The time taken by the processor to complete the process can be calculated using the following formula is given below:
Substitute, “
Thus, the time required by the processor P1 is 1.125 seconds.
Substitute, “
Thus, the time required by the processor P2 is 0.25 seconds.
The Millions of Floating Points Per Second (MFLOPS) of the processor can be calculated using the following formula is given below:
We have,
Only 40% of the instructions are included in the execution
