(c) The following Sigma 16 program has been loaded into memory at address 0000:
load R3,y[RO]
load R4,x[RO]
lea R5, 2[RO]
sub R1,R4,R3
mul R2,R1,R5
store R2,w[RO]
trap RO,RO,RO
x data 10
y data 12
w data 0
Show the content of the memory writing hexadecimal representation and using a
table with 3 columns: the memory address, the contents of that memory address,
and an explanation of what "the content (of that memory address) means". As a
reference, here are the opcodes for RRR instructions: add 0, sub 1, mul 2, trap c.
And here the opcodes for RX instructions: lea 0, load 1, store 2.

Show your work. Show hoe you compute memory address by using the effective memory
address computation.
Assume the following values are stored at the indicated memory addresses and
registers:

Assume:
CPU Clock = 1 GHz
1 OP requires 5 clock cycles (arithmetic instruction, conditional, etc.)
1 memory access requires 100 clock cycles (Read or Write)
Problem size: N = 1,000,000 (1 million)
There is no cost associated with the loop index variable: do not count any arithmetic
instructions for initializing or incrementing the loop index value, do not count any memory
accesses for accessing and using the loop index variable in your computation of a sum.
Assume the loop index variable is "free of charge"
There is no memory cost of accessing and updating your accumulator variable (e.g., sum
+= ...), but there is an arithmetic operation involved in updating the accumulator variable.
Questions:
1. For algorithm #1 shown below (direct sum):
• How many arithmetic instructions are required by this algorithm?
• How many memory accesses are required by this algorithm?
• How many clocks are required by this algorithm?
• What is the CPI (cycles per instruction) required by this algorithm?
•…
