Chapter 3.7, Problem 3.32PP

Explanation of Solution

Trace instruction execution:

  • The program execution trace at this detail level supports different features of procedure call as well as return.
  • The control is passed to function when it is been called, the calling function would resume operation upon return.
  • The arguments are been passed through registers “%rdi” and “%rsi”.
  • The results are returned through register “%rax”.

    Table for trace execution:

  • The “Label” denotes label of instruction and “PC” denotes program counter.
  • The “Instruction” contains details of instructions used.
  • The “%rdi”, “%rsi”, “%rax” and “%rsp” denotes registers used.
  • The details of table are shown below:

4.1.1 Complete solution and answer only no need explanation Given three data points (1,6), (3,28), and (10, 231), What is the value of y at x = 2 if the function y = 2x2 + 3x + 1 passes through the three data points.
1. We wish to compare the performance of two different machines: M1 and M2. The following measurements have been made on these machines:   Program Time on M1 Time on M2 1 10 seconds 5 seconds 2 3 seconds 4 seconds Which machine is faster for each program, and by how much?   2. For M1 and M2 of problem 1, the following additional measurements are made:. Find the instruction execution rate (instructions per second) for each machine when running program 1.   Program Instructions executed on M1 Instructions executed on M2 1 200 x 106 160 x 106   3. For M1 and M2 of problem 1, if the clock rates are 200 MHz and 300 MHz, respectively, find the CPI for program 1 on both machines using the data provided in problems 1 and 2.   4. You are going to enhance a machine, and there are two possible improvements: either make multiply instructions run four times faster than before or make memory access instructions run two times faster than before. You…
