5. P2 has a 2.5 GHz clock rate and a CPI of 1.0. P3 has a 4.0 GHz clock rate and has a CPI of 2.2. a. Which processor has the highest performance expressed in instructions per second? b. If the processors each execute a program in 10 seconds, fnd the number of cycles and the number of instructions. c. We are trying to reduce the execution time by 30of 20% in the CPI. What clock rate should we have to get this time reduction?

Answer:  

See explanation

Explanation:

Given:

Processors:  

P1  

P2  

P3

Clock Rate of Processors:  

Clock rate of P1 = 3 GHz  

Clock rate of P2 = 2.5 GHz  

Clock rate of P3 = 4.0 GHz  

CPI of Processors:  

Cycles per instruction = CPI of P1 = 1.5    

Cycles per instruction = CPI of P2 = 1.0  

Cycles per instruction = CPI of P3 = 2.2

To find:  

a) Which processor has the highest performance expressed in instructions per second

Solution:

Performance = clock rate / CPI    

The performance of processor depends on instructions count and CPU time.    

As we know that    

CPU time = Instructions * Cycles Per Instruction / clock rate  

CPU time = Instructions * CPI / clock rate  

Instructions per second = Instruction count / CPU time    

As:      

CPU time = Instructions * CPI/ clock rate    

Instructions/CPU time = clock rate/CPI    

Instructions per second = clock rate / CPI

IPS = clock rate/ CPI  

Hence  

Performance = Clock rate / CPI = clock rate/ CPI  

Compute Performance of P1:  

Performance for P1 = IPS of P1 = clock rate of P1 / CPI of P1 = 3 GHz / 1.5 = 2

As we know that 1 GHz = 10⁹ Hz. So:    

Performance of P1  expressed in instructions per second is  2 x 10⁹  

Compute Performance of P2:  

Performance for P2 = IPS of P2= clock rate of P2 / CPI of P2 = 2.5 GHz / 1.0 = 2 .5  

As we know that 1 GHz = 10⁹ Hz. So:    

Performance of P2  expressed in instructions per second is  2.5 x 10⁹  

Compute Performance of P3:  

Performance for P3 = IPS of P3= clock rate of P3 / CPI of P3 = 4.0 GHz / 2.2 = 1.82  

As we know that 1 GHz = 10⁹ Hz. So:    

Performance of P3  expressed in instructions per second is 1.82 x 10⁹  

From the above computed performances of each processor it can be seen that Processor 2 (P2) has the highest performance expressed in instructions per second i.e. 2.5 x 10⁹  

b) find the number of cycles and the number of instructions.

Given:  

processors each execute a program in 10 seconds, So,  

CPU time = 10 sec  

Solution:  

Compute number of cycles:  

As we know that:  

CPU time = cycles count / clock rate   = clock cycles/clock rate  

So  

clock cycles = CPU time x clock rate  

Compute number of cycles of P1:  

clock cycles  = 10 x 3 GHz  

                    = 30

As we know that 1 GHz = 10⁹ Hz. So:    

clock cycles of P1 = 3 x 10¹⁰  

Compute number of cycles of P2:  

clock cycles  = 10 x 2.5 GHz

                    = 25  

As we know that 1 GHz = 10⁹ Hz. So:  

clock cycles of P2 = 2.5 x 10¹⁰

Compute number of cycles of P3:  

clock cycles  = 10 x 4.0 GHz  

                    = 40  

As we know that 1 GHz = 10⁹ Hz. So:    

clock cycles of P3 = 4 x 10¹⁰  

Now as we know that:  

Instructions per second = Instruction count / CPU time  

IPS = IC + CPU time

So to find number of instructions:

instruction count = Instructions per second x CPU time  

Compute number of instructions of P1:  

instructions of P1 = Instructions per second of P1 x CPU time  

                           = 2 x 10⁹  x 10  

                           = 2 x 10¹⁰  

Compute number of instructions of P2:  

instructions of P2 = Instructions per second of P2 x CPU time  

                           = 2.5 x 10⁹  x 10  

                           = 2.5 x 10¹⁰  

Compute number of instructions of P3:  

instructions of P3 = Instructions per second of P3 x CPU time  

                           = 1.82 x 10⁹  x 10  

                           = 1.82 x 10¹⁰  

c) What clock rate should we have to reduce the execution time by 30%

As we know  

CPU time = Execution time = instructions x CPI / clock rate  

We have to find new clock rate to reduce execution time by 30%  

This means we have to find:  

New Execution Time = 70% of Old Execution Time  

According to formula of Execution time:  

instructions(new) x CPI(new) / clock rate(new) = 0.7 [instructions(old) x CPI(old) / clock rate(old)]  

As the instructions(new)  = instructions(old)  

So,  

CPI(new) / clock rate(new) = 0.7 [CPI(old) / clock rate(old)]  

When trying to reduce the execution time by 30%, this leads to an increase of 20% in the CPI.  

CPI(new) = 1.2 CPI(old)  

New CPI of P1:  

CPI(new P1) = 1.2 CPI(old P1)  

                   = 1.2 x 1.5  

CPI(new P1) = 1.8  

New CPI of P2:  

CPI(new P2) = 1.2 CPI(old P2)  

                   = 1.2 x 1.0  

CPI(new P2) = 1.2  

New CPI of P3:  

CPI(new P3) = 1.2 CPI(old P3)  

                   = 1.2 x 2.2  

CPI(new P3) = 2.6  

1.2 / clock rate (new) = 0.7 / clock rate(old)  

So new clock rate is computed as:  

clock rate (new)  = (1.2 / 0.7 ) x clock rate(old)  

clock rate (new)  = 1.71 x clock rate(old)  

clock rate (new)  = 1.71 x clock rate(old)

Hence the clock rate should be increased by 71% approx.  

Now new clock rate for each processor is:  

clock rate (new) for P1 = 3 GHz x 1.71     = 5.13 GHz  

clock rate (new) for P2 = 2.5 GHz x 1.71 = 4.27 GHz

clock rate (new) for P3 = 4.0 GHz x 1.71 = 6.84 GHz

For me the some steps I use not 10 steps sorry are I always go through the slide and think what I am talking about. You have to understand what you are talking about and be clear and persuasive. Never look at the presentation. Memorize key phrases and keep your eyes at your audience. make each of your slides colorful so viewers will look at your actually slide.
