A pitfall cited in Section 1.10 is expecting to improve the overall performance of a computer by improving only one aspect of th

e computer. Consider a computer running a program that requires 250 s, with 70 s spent executing FP instructions, 85 s executed L/S instructions and 40 s spent executing branch instructions
(5 min, sec 1.10)By how much is the total time reduced if the time for FP operations is reduced by 20%?


(5 min, sec 1.10) By how much is the time for INT operations reduced if the total time is reduced by 20%?
(5 min, sec 1.10) Can the total time be reduced by 20% by reducing only the time for branch instructions?

Answer:

a) For this case the new time to run the FP operation would be reduced 20% so that means 100-20% =80% from the original time

(1-0.2)*70 s =56s

The reduction on this case is 70-56 s=14s

And since the new total time would be given by 250-14=236 s

b) For this case the total time is reduced 20%  so that means that the new total time would be (1-0.2)=0.8 times the original total time (1-0.2) *250s =200 s

The original time for INT operations is calculated as:

250 = 70+85+40 +t_{INT}

t_{INT}=55s

For this part the only time that was changed is assumed the INT operations so then:

200 = 70+85+40 \Delta t_{INT}

And then: \Delta t_{INT}= 200-70-85-40=5 s

c) A reduction of the total time implies that the total time would be 205 s from the results above. And the time for FP is 70, for L/S is 85 and for INT operations is 55 s, so then if we add 70+85+55=210s, we see that 210>205 so then we cannot reduce the total time 20% just reducing the branch intructions.

Explanation:

From the info given we know that a computer running a program that requires 250 s, with 70 s spent executing FP instructions, 85 s executed L/S instructions and 40 s spent executing branch instructions.

Part 1

For this case the new time to run the FP operation would be reduced 20% so that means 100-20% =80% from the original time

(1-0.2)*70 s =56s

The reduction on this case is 70-56 s=14s

And since the new total time would be given by 250-14=236 s

Part 2

For this case the total time is reduced 20%  so that means that the new total time would be (1-0.2)=0.8 times the original total time (1-0.2) *250s =200 s

The original time for INT operations is calculated as:

250 = 70+85+40 +t_{INT}

t_{INT}=55s

For this part the only time that was changed is assumed the INT operations so then:

200 = 70+85+40 \Delta t_{INT}

And then: \Delta t_{INT}= 200-70-85-40=5 s

And we can quantify the decrease using the relative change:

\% Change = \frac{5s}{55 s} *100 = 9.09\% of reduction

Part 3

A reduction of the total time implies that the total time would be 205 s from the results above. And the time for FP is 70, for L/S is 85 and for INT operations is 55 s, so then if we add 70+85+55=210s, we see that 210>205 so then we cannot reduce the total time 20% just reducing the branch intructions.

A gas tank is known to have a thickness of 0.5 inches and an internal pressure of 2.2 ksi. Assuming that the maximum allowable s
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

D_o=11.9inch

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Thickness T=0.5

Internal PressureP=2.2Ksi

Shear stress \sigma=12ksi

Elastic modulus \gamma= 35000

Generally the equation for shear stress is mathematically given by

 \sigma=\frac{P*r_1}{2*t}

Where

r_i=internal Radius

Therefore

 12=\frac{2.2*r_1}{2*0.5}

 r_i=5.45

Generally

 r_o=r_1+t

 r_o=5.45+0.5

 r_o=5.95

Generally the equation for outer diameter is mathematically given by

 D_o=2r_o

 D_o=11.9inch

Therefore

Assuming that the thin cylinder is subjected to integral Pressure

Outer Diameter is

 D_o=11.9inch
