Question

Consider a processor with a 4-stage pipeline (Fetch, Decode, Execute, Write-back). Each stage takes 10 nanoseconds to complete. Assume the following without pipelining, a single instruction takes 40 nanoseconds to complete (10 nanoseconds for each stage) • Calculate the total time to execute 100 instructions with and without pipelining. • Determine the speedup achieved using pipelining.

Step 1

- Without pipelining, each instruction takes 40 nanoseconds to complete. - Therefore, for 100 instructions, the total time is: \[ \text{Total time without pipelining} = 100 \text{ instructions} \times 40 \text{ ns/instruction} = 4000 \text{ ns} \] Show more…
