University of Asia Pacific

Department of CSE
Mid-Semester Examination Fall 2020
Program: B.sc in CSE
Course Title: Computer Architecture Course No. CSE 317
Credit: 3.00 Time: 1.20 Hour. Full Mark: 60
There are THREE Questions. Answer All questions.

1. a. Draw the basic components of computer and Layer of a computer. Show the [5]
relationship among Instruction Set, Software and Hardware that define computer
architecture.

b. Define the following terms: 5


• Response time/ execution time
• Bandwidth/ throughput
• Relative performance
• Measuring performance
• Clock cycle

c. Compiler designer is trying to decide between two code sequences for a 10


particular machine. Based on the hardware implementation, there are three
different classes of instructions: Class A, Class B, and Class C, and they
require three, two, and four cycles (respectively).
The first code sequence has 10 instructions:5 of A, 2 of B, and 3 of C.
The second sequence has 12 instructions: 6 of A, 4 of B, and 2 of C.

Which sequence will be faster? How much?


2. a. Briefly explain instruction classes are in MIPS architecture? In MIPS arithmetic 5
there are exactly 3 operands, Why?

b. For the following high-level statement write the MIPS machine Code. [15]
A[i] = C + A[i+5] ; Where i = last two digits of your registration number.

OR

1
a. Suppose you have an implementation of 16 bits processor. Draw the flow graph [5]
of optimized multiplication algorithm for this 16-bit processor. Also draw the
hardware organization for this.
b. i)For the following high-level statement write the MIPS machine Code. [15]
X[i] = Z + X[i+7]; Where i = last two digits of your registration number.
A= X[i] -Y;
ii)What is the assembly language statement corresponding to this machine
Instruction?
02324020hex.

3. a. Solve the following using Booth’s logic. [15]


m*(mx) using 5-bits multiplier.
Where m = multiplicand = {(last digit of your registration) mod 6} + 2.
mx = multiplier = -4 .
b. Compare all the multiplication algorithms according to hardware and flow [5]
graphs.
