Consider a CPU that implements a single instruction fetch–decode–execute–write- back pipeline for scalar processing. The execution unit of this pipeline assumes that the execution stage requires one step. Describe, and show in diagram form, what happens when an instruction that requires one execution step follows one that requires four execution steps.

Answer the given question with a proper explanation and step-by-step solution. This question is based on the EASY68K simulated processor. Assume the contents of all data and address registers are equal to zero before the start of the program. All numbers are in hexadecimal. Demonstrate how instructions of a program are executed by using the E114 Processor Instruction Set of the EASY68K simulator.   The figure above is an incomplete program to add up the first 6 data items ($1 to $6) stored at address label DATA and store the sum of the first 6 data items to address label SUM1. Finish the program to accomplish the task.

Q3. Recall that the clock cycle time in a non-pipelined processor is determined by the instruction (considering all stages) that takes the longest time to execute as no instruction can take more than one cycle. In a pipelined datapath, the cycle time is determined by the individual stage that takes the longest time as each cycle will execute exactly one stage. Now assume the distribution of time required by independent stages are as follows: The assignment must be completed by individual efforts. University guidelines will be followed to deal with issues related to academic integrity.

An example of a MISD machine might be something like a systolic array, which is a kind of array. A pipeline network or "wavefront" of data processing units that is organised as a network might be referred to as a systolic array. Since the receipt of new data is what initiates execution, none of these components need the employment of a program counter in order to function properly. Each individual unit in a timed systolic array computes in "lock-step," meaning that within the course of a single clock cycle, each individual unit finishes alternating stages of computation and communication.
