Consider a local branch predictor that 10 bits of branch PC is used for indexing into its level-1 that has 14-bit history entries. These 14 bits from level-1 are XOR-ed with 14 bits of branch PC to generate the index into level-2 that has 2-bit saturating counters. What is the total size of this branch predictor

Consider this data sequence: "3 11 5 5 5 2 4 6 6 7 3 -8". any value that is the same as the immediately preceding value is considered a consecutive duplicate. in this example, there are three such consecutive duplicates: the 2nd and 3rd 5s and the second 6. note that the last 3 is not a consecutive duplicate because it was preceded by a 7. write some code that uses a loop to read such a sequence of non-negative integers , terminated by a negative number. when the code finishes executing, the number of consecutive duplicates encountered is printed. in this case, 3 would be printed. assume the availability of a variable, stdin, that references a scanner object associated with standard input. that is, stdin = new scanner(system. in); is given.

Your friend kayla is starting her own business and asks you whether she should set it up as a p2p network or as a client-server network. list three questions you might ask to kayla decide which network to use and how her answers to those questions would affect your recommendation.

Visually impaired individuals generally rely on the for navigation. thus, designers need to ensure that mouse-specific inputs, such as pointing, clicking, and hovering, can be done without a mouse.
