Q2.We run some code on the MIPS pipeline from class with the following characteristics. 30% of instructions are loads and 25% of those are followed immediately by a use of the loaded register. 10% of instructions are branches, with 30% of the instructions in the branch delay slot being NOPs. What is the CPI of this code?
For Q3 to Q5, refer to the following:
The importance of having a good branch predictor depends on how often conditional branches are executed. Together with branch predictor accuracy, this will determine how much time is spent stalling due to mispredicted branches. In the following questions , assume that the breakdown of dynamic instructions into various instruction categories is as follows:
| R-type | BEQ | JMP | LW | SW |
| 40% | 25% | 5% | 25% | 5% |
Also, assume the following branch predictor accuracies:
| Always-Taken | 2-Bit |
| 45% | 85% |
Q3. Stall cycles due to mispredicted branches increase the CPI. What is the extra CPI due to mispredicted branches with the always-taken predictor? Assume that branch outcomes are determined in the EX stage, that there are no data hazards, and that no delay slots are used.
Q4. Repeat Q3 for the 2-bit predictor.
