Computer A has an overall CPI of 1.3 and can be run at a clock rate of 600MHz. Computer B has a CPI of 2.5 and can be run at a clock rate of 750 MHz. We have a particular program we wish to run. When compiled for computer A, this program has exactly 100,000 instructions. How many instructions would the program need to have when compiled for Computer B, in order for the two computers to have exactly the same execution time for this program? Please explain how to solve
The Pentium 4 Prescott processor, released in 2004, had a clock rate of 3.6 GHz and voltage of 1.25 V. Assume that, on average, it consumed 10 W of static power and 90 W of dynamic power. If the total dissipated power is to be reduced by 10%, how much should the voltage be reduced to maintain the same leakage current? Note: power is defined as the product of voltage and current

Task 2The cells of the battery are treated using a programmable lathe machine. The machine has 15programs that are able to control its speed. Program 1 has 11 ( N( 1) = 11) different speeds thatcan vary from 100 revolution per minute (rev/min) to 1100 (rev/min). Program 2 has 13 ( N(2) =13) speeds that can vary from 110 rev/min to 1430 rev/min ( X1(1) = 100, X2(1)=110,and so on).

The program requires 360 seconds, with the number of seconds executing each class as shown in the table below: Instruction Class A B C Time (sec) 100 80 120 60 1.1. By how much is the total execution time changed if the time for class D is reduced by 20% and the time for class C is increased by 10% (assuming no other changes)? 1.2.

Amdahl's Law is as applicable to software as it is to hardware. An oft-cited programmingtruism states that a program spends 90% of its time executing 10% of its code. Thus, tuninga small amount of program code can often time have an enormous affect on the overallperformance of a software product.
