A machine is called “underpipelined” if additional levels of pipelining can be added without changing the pipeline stall behavior appreciably. Suppose that the MIPS integer pipeline was changed to four stages by merging EX and MEM stages and lengthening the clock cycle by 50%.
How much faster would the conventional MIPS pipeline be versus the underpipelined MIPS on integer codes only?
Assume that the branch is resolved in the ID stage and forwardings are available. Make sure that you include the effect of any changes in pipeline stalls for load and branch instructions using the following data:load instructions ----10% branch instructions -- 6%

We found that the instruction fetch and memory stages are the
critical path of our 5-stage pipelined MIPS CPU. Therefore, we
changed the IF and MEM stages to take two cycles
while increasing the clock rate. You can assume that the register
file is written at the falling edge of the clock.
Assume that no pipelining optimizations have been made, and that
branch comparisons are made by the ALU. Here’s how our pipeline
looks when executing two add instructions:

during the class sessions: IF-
ID-EX-M-WB.
Assume that forwarding is not implemented and only the hazard
detection and stall logic is
implemented so that all data dependencies are handled by having the
pipeline stall until the
register fetch will result in the correct data being fetched.
Furthermore, assume that the memory is written/updated in the first
half of the clock cycle
(i.e. on the rising edge of the clock) and...
