A computer user is trying to decide which computer to buy. She knows that she runs Programs 2 and 4 about three times as often as Programs 1 and 3. Which computer should she buy? (c) [8 points 4 points for correct answer + 4 points for showing how you got that answer, comvincinghy and in detail Table 2 shows instructions-per-cycle (IPC) for three Computers X. Y, and Z, on each of programs 5, 6, 7, and 8. Which computer is fastest overall? Assume that using onhy IPC to compare performance is valid in this case, because all three computers implement the same instruction set architecture, execute the same program binaries (hence, identical dynamic instruction count), and have the same processor frequency, hence, cycle time. Table 2. Note: higher IPC (lower CPD means higher performance.
