Chapter 5, Problem 5.14HW

Write a version of the inner product procedure described in Problem 5.13 that uses 6 × 1 loop unrolling. For x86-64, our measurements of the unrolled version give a CPE of 1.07 for integer data but still 3.01 for both floating-point data.

  1. A.    Explain why any (scalar) version of an inner product procedure running on an Intel Core i7 Haswell processor cannot achieve a CPE less than 1.00.
  2. B.     Explain why the performance for floating-point data did not improve with loop unrolling.

NAND2TETRIS HARDWARE SIMULATOR (HARDWARE DESCRIPTION LANGUAGE (HDL)) ,USING SKELETON PROGRAM PROVIDED AND USING PREDIFINED GATES ATTACHED. CHIP HiLoMux { IN in[8], sel; OUT out[4]; PARTS: }   Implement HiLoMux - This has one 8-bit input bus, in, and one 4-bit output bus, out. Alsopresent is a sel input, which is used to select what appears on out. Ifsel is false, then out should contain the lower 4-bits of in (i.e. in[0],in[1], in[2], in[3]). If sel is true, then out should contain theupper 4-bits of in (i.e. in[4] mapped to out[0], in[5], mapped toout[1], etc.).
Write a counting program in MIPS assembly. The program should print the first sixteen powers of 2 beginning with 2^0 with a space between each value. The output of the program should be exactly as follows: 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 1024 2048 4096 8192 16384 32768 Additional requirements for this problem: You must use a logical shift operation in your implementation. You must use a loop (i.e., a conditional branch that causes program instructions to repeat).
There is an application that requires the following hardware: an Intel 8031, a Program ROM of 8Kx8, a Data ROM of 4Kx8 for look-up tables and a Data RAMs of 8Kx8. The memory map of the design: Program ROM should start at address 0000H. Then, the Data ROM should come above the Program ROM. Finally the Data RAM must go to the top of the memory map. There should be no gaps between the memory addresses of the external ROMs.  Calculate the address space of the ROMs and RAMs of your design.
