Problem
A program contains the following instruction mix:
• 60% load/store instructions with execution time of 1.2 pis each
• 10% ALU instructions with execution time of 0.8 its each
• 30% branch instructions with execution time of 1.0µs each
a. If the clock period is 0.2 its, calculate the average CPI for the program.
b. What is the average MIPS rate of the program?
