Consider three different processors P1, P2, and P3, executing the same instruction set. P1 has a clock cycle time of 300 picosecond and a CPI (clock cycles per instruction) of 1.5. P2 has a clock cycle time of 400 picosecond and a CPI of 1.0. P3 has a clock cycle time of 250 picosecond and a CPI of 2.0. P1 is running a program with 10 instructions. P2 is running a different program with 20 instructions. P3 is running a program with 15 instructions.

Which processor has the highest performance? By how much does the fastest processor faster than the slowest processor? What are the CPU execution times for the three processors running their assigned programs? Please be sure to show and explain the detailed steps of how you arrived at your answer in your submission.

-Note: I have seen several instances of this question, however there seems to be confusion as to why the answers are being given in Seconds - and not Pico-Seconds. This is where my confusion lies.

Thanks

BJ. is a 5-year-old boy who has suffered from repeated upper respiratory infections since he was 16 months old. At 4 years of age, he was diagnosed with allergic asthma. The following winter, at age 5, he was admitted to the hospital twice for acute asthma with a secondary bacterial pulmonary infection.

At the second admission, a complete blood count, sputum culture, and immune status work-up were ordered.

1) A hydraulic shovel with a bottom-dump bucket with a heaped bucket volume of 10 m3 is excavating tough clay. The swing angle is 103 degrees and the job efficiency is 0.85 + (8/100). Calculate the shovel production in BCM.

2) Estimate the time required to load 408 m3 of gravel from a stockpile into trucks using a clamshell having a heaped bucket capacity of 0.57 m3. Estimated cycle time is 20s. Swing depth factor = 1.0. Job efficiency is estimated to be 58 min/h.

3) A small hydraulic excavator will be used to dig a trench in hard clay. The trench size is 0.76 m wide by 1.50 + (58/100) m deep. The excavator bucket available is 0.76 m wide and has a heaped capacity of 0.50 + (8/100) m3. The maximum digging depth of the excavator is 4.90 m. The average swing angle is expected to be 75° and the job efficiency is 78 %.  Estimate the hourly trench production in BCM and in linear meters of trench.

Write a program in C to perform the following:

  • Generates an array of 10 double random values between 1.0 and 100.0 – assume these are prices for 10 items that a store sells
  • Generates an array of 10 integer random values between 0 and 200 – assume that these are the number of items/units (first array) sold
  • Generate another array called “itemSale” which would contain the total sale for each item.
  • Calculate the total sale for this store and display it
  • If the number of items sold is more than 100, notify the user that this item (Item number from table below) needs to be reordered.
  • Display the following table:

Item                 Price/unit         units sold         Total

1                      33.45               2                      66.9

2                      435.22             5                      2176.1

***Please show the math! Thank you!

Assume that security returns are generated by the single-index model,

Ri = αi + βiRM + ei
where Ri is the excess return for security i and RM is the market’s excess return. The risk-free rate is 3%. Suppose also that there are three securities A, B, and C, characterized by the following data:

Security βi E(Ri) σ(ei)
A 1.0 10 % 23 %
B 1.3 13 9
C 1.6 16 18

a. If σM = 20%, calculate the variance of returns of securities A, B, and C.

Variance
Security A
Security B
Security C

b. Now assume that there are an infinite number of assets with return characteristics identical to those of A, B, and C, respectively. What will be the mean and variance of excess returns for securities A, B, and C? (Enter the variance answers as a percent squared and mean as a percentage. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to the nearest whole number.)

Mean Variance
Security A %
Security B %
Security C %

4. Suppose that the following processes arrive for execution at the times indicated. Each process will run for the amount of time listed. In answering the questions, use non-preemptive scheduling, and base all decisions on the information you have at the time the decision must be made.

Process          Arrival Time           Burst Time

P1                           0.0                                    8

P2                           0.4                                   4

P3                           1.0                                    1

a. What is the average turnaround time for these processes with the FCFS scheduling algorithm?

b. What is the average turnaround time for these processes with the SJF scheduling algorithm?

c. The SJF algorithm is supposed to improve performance, but notice that we chose to run process P1 at time 0 because we did not know that two shorter processes would arrive soon. Compute what the

average turnaround time will be if the CPU is left idle for the first 1 unit and then SJF scheduling is used. Remember that processes P1 and P2 are waiting during this idle time, so their waiting time may increase. This algorithm could be known as future-knowledge scheduling.
