When making changes to optimize part of a processor, it is often the case that speeding up one type of instruction comes at the cost of slowing down something else. for example, if we put in a complicated fast floating-point unit, that takes space, and something might have to be moved farther away from the middle to accommodate it, adding an extra cycle in delay to reach that unit. the basic amdahl's law equation does not take into account this trade-off. a. if the new fast floating-point unit speeds up floating-point operations by, on average, 2ă—, and floating-point operations take 20% of the original program's execution time, what is the overall speedup (ignoring the penalty to any other instructions)? b. now assume that speeding up the floating-point unit slowed down data cache accesses, resulting in a 1.5ă— slowdown (or 2/3 speedup). data cache accesses consume 10% of the execution time. what is the overall speedup now? c. after implementing the new floating-point operations, what percentage of execution time is spent on floating-point operations? what percentage is spent on data cache accesses?

Suppose a router has built up the routing table shown in the table. subnet number 128.96.39.00 28.96.39.128 128.96.40.00 192.4.153.0 default) subnet mask 255.255.255.128 255.255.255.128 255.255.255.128 255.255.255.192 nexthop interface 0 interface 1 r2 r3 r4. the router can deliver packets directly over interfaces 0 and 1, or it can forward packets to routers r2, r3, or r4. describe what the router does with a packet addressed to each of the following destinations: (a) 128.96.39.10 (b) 128.96.40.12 (c) 128.96.40.151 (d) 192.4.153.17 (e) 192.4.153.90
