3. Suppose we have two computers A and B. Computer A has a clock cycle time of 1 ns with CPI = 2. Computer B, instead, has a clock cycle time of 900 ps with CPI = 1.75. Assuming a program requires the execution of the same number of instructions in both computers: a)- Which computer is faster for this program? By how much? b)- What if computer B required a 30% more instruction than Computer A? Which computer is faster now? By how much? * (10 Points) 1p 10-2, 1n = = 10-9 3.
