Question

Question 7 (2 points) ___________networks are those in which all components are connected to all other components. Question 7 options: A) Completely connected B) Ring C) Star D) Mesh

Question 8 (2 points) Superpipelining occurs when a pipeline has stages that require less than two clock cycles to execute.

Question 8 options: True False

Question 9 (2 points) Saved ___________ has focused on efficiency, giving it a lead in the mobile and embedded systems market. Question 9 options: A) Intel B) ARM C) Cray D) Java

Answer 1

1. Network topology means how network devices or components are physically connected to each other. The topology in which every device or component is connected to every other device via dedicated channels is called mesh topology. In star topology, every device is connected to central hub. In ring topology, the devices form a ring in which every device has two devices connected on both sides. Fully connected topology is a type of mesh in which there is a direct path between two devices. So the correct answer is D while as option A,B,C are incorrect.

2. Pipeline execution can be made faster using superpipelining.In superpipelined processor, the pipeline execution time is 1/n of the base cycle. Observe in a pipeline , the stages instruction fetch, execute and data memory load store requires one complete cycle but the stages decode and store register require half cycle. So the correct option is True.

3. Java is an efficient used almost on every platform like embedded system,mobile,server etc and is giving a lead in the embedded system and mobile market share. Intel and Arm are companies dealing with CPU market and Cray is a supercomputer. Hence option D is correct while option A,B,C are incorrect.
