Consider the two computers A and B with the clock cycle times 100 ps and 150 ps respectively for some program. The number of cyc

les per instruction (CPI) for A and B are 2.0 and 1.0 respectively for the same program. Which computer is faster and how much? a) A is 1.33 times faster than B b) Bis 1.22 times faster than A c) A is 1.23 times faster than B d) B is 1.33 times faster than A

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

Clock cycle times of Computer A  =100ps

Number of cycle per instruction (CPI) = 2

Time Required Per instruction = Clock times * CPI =100 * 2 = 200 ps

clock cycle times of Computer B =150ps

Number of cycle per instruction(CPI) = 1

Time Required Per instruction = Clock times * CPI 150 * 1 = 150 ps

Computer B requires less time than Computer A per instruction

So, Computer B is Faster

Computer B is Faster 200 - 150 = 50ps Faster Per instruction

Answer:D. The device needs an operating system update

Explanation:Operating systems are different programs mainly manufactured by software companies like Microsof,Apple etc, after initially installation are loaded into the computer by a boot program, operating systems manages all of the other application programs in a computer, it requires constant upgrade in order to be able to effectively carry out its activities. Application programs uses the operating system by making requests for services through a defined application program interface (API). Examples include Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Blackberry OS, Operating system Linux etc.

In comparing a multi-boot environment and an environment using a type II hypervisor which offers the best performance? Which wou
ElenaW [278]

Answer / Explanation

To answer this question, let us first understand what a multi boot environment is and what an environment using a hypervisor is:

Multiple-booting can be defined or simply refers to the process of installing different multiple operating system on a single computer and also to be able to determine which of the operating systems boot per time.

While:

Hypervisor or a type 2 hypervisor can be described as a form of virtual machine in form of a software that is installed on in an existing operating system of a computer. One of the main benefit of an hypervisor is it enables easy navigation of guest on your computer without actually navigating into your original or primary operating system plus it aid in fast system recovery.

If we now refer back to the question asked in respect to which i would offer as the most convenience, i would prefer the type 2 hypervisor as convenient because i am able to run an operating system inside another operating system so navigating between two operating system would be very easy as compared to the Multi-booting where i have to always shut down an operating system to navigate between the operating system because i can only use one operating system per time.

What would I need to make the perfect music video
Lera25 [3.4K]
To make the perfect music video, you would need a bunch of b-roll and clips that relate to the song. If it’s a slow, relaxing song, you want things that are slow and represent peace. If it’s about something specific, you should have a story behind it to explain. Hope this helps! :)
