Problem 1.10: Simplify F(A, B,C, D) = ACD+ A'B + D'
5.14 Write a version of the inner product procedure described in Problem 5.13 that uses 6 x 1 loop unrolling. For x86-64, our measurements of the unrolled version give a CPE of 1.07 for integer data but still 3.01 for both floating-point data. A. Explain why any (scalar) version of an inner product procedure running on an Intel Core i7 Haswell processor cannot achieve a CPE less than 1.00. B. Explain why the performance for floating-point data did not improve with loop unrolling.
Question 5 Multiple Choice: We have been assigned the task of selecting an interface language for a disk controller that must count disk reads. In particular, the controller must count how many reads have occurred since the last write to the disk and confirm that the count of reads does not exceed 1,000,000. Two proposals have been made. Method C uses C++ while Method R uses regular expressions. Then I would use Method C because Method R would translate into a finite automaton with at least 1,000,000 states. I cannot use Method C because it is not able to keep track of the count of reads. I would use Method C because Method R cannot keep track of the count of reads. I cannot use Method R because regular expressions cannot represent integers.
