Kipish [7]

Answer:

Option d) B is 1.33 times faster than A

Given:

Clock time, t_{A} = 100 ps

t_{A} = 150 ps

No. of cycles per instructions,  n_{A} = 2.0

n_{B} = 1.0

Solution:

Let I be the no. of instructions for the program.

CPU clock cycle, f_{A} = 2.0 I

CPU clock cycle, f_{B} = 1.0 I

Now,

CPU time for each can be calculated as:

CPU time, T = CPU clock cycle\times clock time

T_{A} = f_{A}\times t_{A} = 2.0 I\times 100 = 200 I ps

T_{B} = f_{B}\times t_{B} = 1.0 I\times 100 = 150 I ps

Thus B is faster than A

Now,

\frac{Performance of A}{Performance of B} = \frac{T_{A}}{T_{B}}

\frac{Performance of A}{Performance of B} = \frac{200}{150}

Performance of B is 1.33 times that of A
