2.(25 points) Assume that individual stages of a processor's datapath has the following latencies (no two stages can occur in parallel): IF ID EX MEM WB 200ps 300ps 100ps 250ps 250ps Also, assume that the relative frequency of instructions executed by this processor are broken down as follows: Conditional Branches Instruction Class ALU Relative Freqency 50% Stages IF, ID, EX, WB 10% Load from Memory Store to Memory 25%15% IF, ID, EX, MEM, WB IF, ID, EX, MEM IF, ID, EX (a)(5 points) What is the clock rate of the processor assuming that it is implemented in a pipelined fashion? (b)(10 points) Assuming the pipelined implementation for the processor, calculate the global CPI for the processor. In this question, you can assume that there are no memory stalls or hazards. (c)(10 points) Assuming the non-pipelined implementation for the processor, calculate the global CPI
