Chapter 4.8, Problem 4.3ARQ
Explanation of Solution
Need of business professional to know about computer software:
The business professional must know about the various software components in order to manage the various resources which are discussed as follows:
Each computer has the operating system that are nothing but the computer programs used for the management of the various computer resources.
- The operating system plays an important role for the function of various system performances such as read operation, write operations and allocation of main memory and to perform the swapping of memory, responding to error and exception handling and to perform the backup, recovery of the resources.
- The operating system is also responsible for managing the various input and output devices such as the display, keyboard and mouse and to control other external devices.
- Software is needed for the maintenance of the functionalities of clients and server and it is necessary for the functioning of both the application of client and server.
- The application of the software can be useful in organization. The server operating system is the computer operating system that has been designed specifically for the configuration of server.
- The UNIX operating system can also be possible to implement on the servers. However the Linux operating system is also very useful in many organizations because it’s free and open source nature of the operating system and it’s easy to configure compared to the Microsoft server implementations.
Virtualization:
Virtualization can be defined as the process in which one computer system can appear as many computer systems. It is possible for one operating system that is known as host operating system to run as one or more operating system as the applications.
- The operating system that has been hosted is known as the Virtual machine where more than one operating system can be operated and each virtual machine can have their system resources allocated to it.
Types of virtualization:
There are three types of virtualization which are as follows:
PC virtualization:
- It is the process of virtually installing more than one operating system in a single personal computer.
- The user can be able to install more than one Operating System (OS) using some virtualization software such as VMware and both the OS can share the same system resources.
Server virtualization:
- The server virtualization is the process of hosting more than one server computer into a single server computer.
- The user can virtually host two virtual machines where each machine can act as server computer.
Desktop virtualization:
- The term desktop virtualization is the process of installing many operating systems for desktop in a single server...

Q.1. Architecture performance [10 marks]
Answer
A certain microprocessor requires either 2, 4, or 6 machine cycles to perform various operations.
⚫ (40+g+f)% require 2 machine cycles,
⚫ (30-g) % require 4 machine cycles, and
⚫ (30-f)% require 6 machine cycles.
(a) What is the average number of machine cycles per instruction for this microprocessor?
Answer
(b) What is the clock rate (machine cycles per second) required for this microprocessor to be a
"1000 MIPS" processor?
Answer
(c) Suppose that 35% of the instructions require retrieving an operand from memory which
needs an extra 8 machine cycles. What is the average number of machine cycles per
instruction, including the instructions that fetch operands from memory?
Q.2. Architecture performance [25 marks]
Consider two different implementations, M1 and M2, of the same instruction set. M1 has a clock
rate of 2 GHz and M2 has a clock rate of 3.3 GHz. There are two classes of instructions with the
following CPIs:
Class
A
CPI for M1
CPI for M2
2.f
1.g
B
5
3
C
6
4
Note that the dots in 2 fand 1.g
indicate decimal points and not
multiplication.
a) What are the peak MIPS performances for both machines?
b) Which implementation is faster, if half the instructions executed in a certain program are from
class A, while the rest are divided equally among classes B and C.
c) What speedup factor for the execution of class-A instructions would lead to 20% overall
speedup?
d) What is the maximum possible speedup that can be achieved by only improving the execution
of class-A instructions? Explain why.
e) What is the clock rate required for microprocessor M1 to be a "1000 MIPS" (not peak MIPS)
processor?

You will write three blocks of code. The first will convert kilograms to pounds and ounces. The second will convert pounds to kilograms and ounces. The third will convert ounces to kilograms and pounds. The conversions are as follows: 1 kilogram = 35.274 ounces 1 kilogram = 2.20462 pounds 1 pound = 0.453592 kilograms 1 pound = 16 ounces 1 ounce = 0.0283 kilograms 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds For the purposes of this activity the template for a function has been provided.
