[20 marks] A computer architect needs to design the pipeline of
a new microprocessor.
(a) Assume the new microprocessor has 8 pipeline stages and it is
perfectly pipelined. How much speedup will it achieve compared to
the non-pipelined processor?
(b) Assume the new microprocessor has 8 pipeline stages, and each
stage takes 5.0ns to complete. When the following MIPS program is
executed, how much faster is this new pipelined microprocessor
against a non-pipelined microprocessor [Assume the non-pipelined
microprocessor takes 40ns to finish one instruction]?
add $t2, $t8, $t4
add $t3, $t6, $t3
sub $t4, $t0, $t1
