    University of Asia Pacific

    Department of CSE
    Mid-Semester Examination Fall 2020
    Program: B.sc in CSE
    Course Title: Computer Architecture Course No. CSE 317
    Credit: 3.00 Time: 1.20 Hour. Full Mark: 60
    There are THREE Questions. Answer All questions.

    1. a. Draw the basic components of computer and Layer of a computer. Show the [5]
    relationship among Instruction Set, Software and Hardware that define computer
    architecture.

    b. Define the following terms: 5


    • Response time/ execution time
    • Bandwidth/ throughput
    • Relative performance
    • Measuring performance
    • Clock cycle

    c. Compiler designer is trying to decide between two code sequences for a 10


    particular machine. Based on the hardware implementation, there are three
    different classes of instructions: Class A, Class B, and Class C, and they
    require three, two, and four cycles (respectively).
    The first code sequence has 10 instructions:5 of A, 2 of B, and 3 of C.
    The second sequence has 12 instructions: 6 of A, 4 of B, and 2 of C.

    Which sequence will be faster? How much?


    2. a. Briefly explain instruction classes are in MIPS architecture? In MIPS arithmetic 5
    there are exactly 3 operands, Why?

    b. For the following high-level statement write the MIPS machine Code. [15]
    A[i] = C + A[i+5] ; Where i = last two digits of your registration number.

    OR

    1
    a. Suppose you have an implementation of 16 bits processor. Draw the flow graph [5]
    of optimized multiplication algorithm for this 16-bit processor. Also draw the
    hardware organization for this.
    b. i)For the following high-level statement write the MIPS machine Code. [15]
    X[i] = Z + X[i+7]; Where i = last two digits of your registration number.
    A= X[i] -Y;
    ii)What is the assembly language statement corresponding to this machine
    Instruction?
    02324020hex.

    3. a. Solve the following using Booth’s logic. [15]


    m*(mx) using 5-bits multiplier.
    Where m = multiplicand = {(last digit of your registration) mod 6} + 2.
    mx = multiplier = -4 .
    b. Compare all the multiplication algorithms according to hardware and flow [5]
    graphs.
