CS340 - COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE - II Question Papers
Time: Three Hours Maximum: 100 Marks
Answer All The Questions

PART – A (10 x 2 = 20 Marks)

1. Consider a processor with a clock cycle time of 1 ns running code with the following instruction mix:-
Frequency Clock cycle count
ALU operation 45% 1
Loads 22% 3
Stores 15% 3
Branches 18% 2
A new level of cache is being added, that speeds up memory access time by 2, and increases clock cycle time by 50%. Find the improvement.
2. The common trend in processor, in that the size of the operand keeps increasing (8 to 16 to 32 etc.). Recently there is a move towards keeping them small. What are the advantages?
3. Dhrystone is a well-known integer benchmark. Computers A and B are measured to perform DA & DB executions of the Dhrystone benchmark per second. Computer A has a MIPS of MIPSA. What is the fallacy in calculating the MIPS of B to be MIPSB = MIPSAX (DB/DA)?
4. What is meant by ‘having precise exceptions’? when can you allow a processor to not have precise exceptions?
5. What is meant by predication?
6. How is loop level parallelism determined?
7. Is it possible to use a global branch prediction for certain branches, and a local branch prediction for others? If so, how? If not, why not?
8. What are the key ideas used in hardware-based speculation?
9. How can an atomic operation be achieved using a pair of separate instructions?
10. How does the SCSI bus allow interlacing of commands from different initiators to a single target.
