Question
A compiler designer is trying to decide between two code sequences for a particular machine. The hardware designers have supplied the following facts:
Instruction class
CPI of the instruction class
A
1
B
3
C
4
For a particular high-level language, the compiler writer is considering two sequences that require the following instruction counts:
Code sequence
Instruction counts (in millions)

In this implementation memory (RAM) is split into Instruction Memory (IM) and Data Memory (DM). Your code must implement the basic instruction set architecture (ISA) of the TinyMachine Architecture: 1 -> LOAD 2->ADD 3->STORE 4 -> SUB 5 ->IN 6-> OUT 7-> END 8 -> JMP 9 -> SKIPZ Each piece of the architecture must be accurately represented in your code (Instruction Register, Program Counter, Instruction Memory (IM), MAR1, MDR-1(MAR-1 and MDR-1 are connected to the IM). Data Memory, MAR-2, MDR2 (MAR-2 and MDR-2 are connected to the DM), and Accumulator.
