<u>Answer:</u>
a) First, we need to determine the pipeline stage amounting to the maximum time. In the given case, the maximum time required is 2ns for MEM. In addition, the pipeline register delay=0.1 ns.
Clock cycled time of the pipelined machine= max time+delay
=2ns+0.1 ns
=2.1 ns
b) For any processor, ideal CPI=1. However, since there is a stall after every four instructions, the effective CPI of the new machine is specified by:
c) The speedup of pipelined machine over the single-cycle machine=avg time per instruction of single cycle/avg time per instruction of pipelined.
Single cycle processor:
CPI=1
Clock period=7 ns
Pipelined processor:
Clock period=2.1 ns
CPI=1.25
Therefore, speedup=
=7/2.625
= 2.67
d) As the number of stages approach infinity, the speedup=k where k is the number of stages in the machine.
