Computer architecture help:
(60 points) The following instructions are executed on the 5-stage MIPS pipelined datapath. add r5,r2, r1 lw r3, 4(r5) lw r2, 0(r2) or r3, r5, r3 sw r3, 0(r5) (a) (20 points) List the data hazards in the above code. For each data hazard identified, clearly mark the source and the destination. For example you can say, there is a data hazard from instruction X to instruction Y on register Z. (b) (20 points) Assume there is...
8- For this question, assume that there are no pipeline stalls and that the breakdown of executed instructions is as follows: (8 pts add 10% addi 15% not 0% beq 30% lw 30% SW 15% a- In what fraction of all cycles is the data memory used? b- In what fraction of all cycles is the input of the sign-extend circuit needed?
1. Given the following instruction sequence for the MIPS processor with the standard 5 stage pipeline $10, S0. 4 addi lw S2.0(S10) add sw S2,4(510) $2, $2, $2 Show the data dependences between the instructions above by drawing arrows between dependent instructions (only show true/data dependencies). a. Assuming forwarding support, in what cycle would the store instruction write back to memory? Show the cycle by cycle execution of the instructions as they execute in the pipeline. Also, show any stalls...
A program that executes 12.3x107 instructions is run on a pipelined processor. The table below provides the percentage of executed instructions for each type of instruction. Instruction Executed P ipeline CPU type instructions (%) w/o hazards ALU 29.4 Load 29.7 Store 14.7 Branch 26.2 2 (w/o prediction) 27% of the load instructions are followed by instructions that need the data being loaded, 47% of the branches are actually.not taken, please assume not taken prediction. a) Please determine the overall cycles...

Instead of a single-cycle organization, we can use a multi-cycle organization where each instruction takes multiple cycles...
We implemented a new 5-stage pipeline with the following features: the delay by data and control hazards are as follows: 1 cycle stall for the load by immediate use, 2 cycle stalls for branch taken. Assume we now run 10,000 instructions on the pipeline, among them: (1) 35% are lw instructions. 10% of lw instructions are followed by instructions that use lw result immediately in ALU input; (2)15% are branch instructions with 40% possibility of branch taken; (3) the remaining...

1. Assume that our MIPS instruction subset is redefined to contain only the following instructions: Instruction Instruction fetch Register read & ALU operation Data Memory Register write decode 0 ns R-format 2ns 1 ns lw ns l ns 2 ns 5 ns 1 ns ns 1 ns ns 0 0 bne The table lists the times required for each step within each instruction. Recall that with the...
Consider a standard 5-stage MIPS pipeline of the type discussed
during the class sessions: IF-
ID-EX-M-WB.
Assume that forwarding is not implemented and only the hazard
detection and stall logic is
implemented so that all data dependencies are handled by having the
pipeline stall until the
register fetch will result in the correct data being fetched.
Furthermore, assume that the memory is written/updated in the first
half of the clock cycle
(i.e. on the rising edge of the clock) and...
Given the following sequence of instructions: lw $s2, 0($s1) //1 lw $s1, 40($s3) //2 sub $s3, $s1, $s2 //3 add $s3, $s2, $s2 //4 or $s4, $s3, $zero //5 sw $s3, 50($s1) //6 a. List the read after write (current instruction is reading certain registers which haven’t been written back yet) data dependencies. As an example , 3 on 1 ($s2) shows instruction 3 has data dependency on instruction 1 since it is reading register $s2. b. Assume the 5...
