Quiz 1 Information

Quiz 1 will be Tuesday, February 19. It will be 30 minutes long and be worth 60 points. Questions will be variations of the following questions from Test 1 (one or two may be excluded):

2a. apply Amdahl's law

4. disassemble into MIPS machine language

6. design an encoding for a new MIPS instruction

7. write MIPS assembly language

9. diagram pipeline progress & forwarding

10c. compute average branch delay

11. simulate set-associative cache

12. compute memory access delay

As with previous tests, you will be given the green card, and you may use a calculator.
