Consider two diff erent implementations of the same instruction
set architecture. Th e instructions can be divided into four classes according to
their CPI (class A, B, C, and D). P1 with a clock rate of 2.5 GHz and CPIs of 1, 2, 3,
and 3, and P2 with a clock rate of 3 GHz and CPIs of 2, 2, 2, and 2.
Given a program with a dynamic instruction count of 1.0E6 instructions divided
into classes as follows: 10% class A, 20% class B, 50% class C, and 20% class D,
which implementation is faster?
a. What is the global CPI for each implementation?
b. Find the clock cycles required in both cases
