Question:

Consider two different implementations, P1 and P2, of the same instruction set. There are five classes of instructions (A, B, C, D, and E) in the instruction set. P1 has a clock rate of 4 GHz, and P2 has a clock rate of 6 GHz. The average number of cycles for each instruction class for P1 and P2 are listed in the following table.a. b. P1 P2 P1 P2 CPI Class A CPI Class B CPI Class C CPI Class D CPI Class E 1 3 1 2 2 3 2 2 3 3 3 2 4 5 4 2

At what frequency does P1 have the same performance of P2 for the instruction mix given in 1.6.5?
