1. (18 pts) Circle the selected answer for T/F. Each is 3 points. a. T/FAll instructions in the MIPS architecture we discussed in class were 32-bits wide b. T/FIf a given program compiles to fewer dynamic instructions on processor A than it does on processor B and has a lower CPI on processor A than on processor B, then it executes faster on processor A than on processor B. c. T/FHardware division can be performed by repeated subtractions, comparisons, and d. T/FLoad instructions transfer the data from register to memory while store e. T/FIt is not possible for overflow to occur if a positive number is subtracted from a f. T/FAfter performing the division operation, the divisor and remainder must have the shifts. instructions transfer the data from memory to registers. negative number. same sign 2. (10 pts) Answer the following questions giving all necessary details a. Define Amdahl's Law in a few sentences.

Explanation / Answer

Solution:

Multiple questions asked, please ask them separately.

1)

a)

True, if it is a start of the curriculum they must be teaching about 32-bit architecture, I advise you to have a look at your notes for this one.

b)

True, The statement true only under the circumstance that the both the processors are running on same clock rate.

c)

True,

d)

False, Load instruction load the data into register which means fetching from the memory and its vice versa for store instruction
