Given the following sequence of instructions: lw $s2, 0($s1) //1 lw $s1, 40($s3) //2 sub $s3, $s1, $s2 //3 add $s3, $s2, $s2 //4 or $s4, $s3, $zero //5 sw $s3, 50($s1) //6 a. List the read after write (current instruction is reading certain registers which haven’t been written back yet) data dependencies. As an example , 3 on 1 ($s2) shows instruction 3 has data dependency on instruction 1 since it is reading register $s2. b. Assume the 5...

We execute the following instruction sequence (data hazards may exhibit in the sequence) on a MIPS 5-stage pipeline with forwarding and stall features implemented. Draw a graphical representation for the execution of the instruction sequence that clearly shows (1) forwarding path (if any); (2) stall cycles (if any); and (3) total cycles needed for the execution. lw R8, 0x0020(R10) add R9, R8, R10 sw R8, 0x0040(R10)
