Question

Difference Between a Conflict and Compulsory Cash Miss: b) Difference between Interrupts & Exceptions, Provide examples for each: c) Difference between Speculative execution and Branch prediction: d) Difference between time and special locality: e) Explain how does the following affect the 3’c Cache misses separately: • Associativity: • Increase Capacity: • Increase block size: f) Assume that a computer application execution time is combined of 72% CPU time and 28% I/O time. Using Amdahl’s law find which is of the following solution has a better improvement: (1) Enhancing the CPU speed by 20% or (2) Decreasing the I/O time by 20%? g) Give the MIPS code equivalent to: S = (5A +B) -3* (C-5D) +10. Using a minimum number of instructions and variables
