Apitfall cited in section 1.10 is expecting to improve the overall performance of a computer by improving only one aspect of the computer. consider a computer running a program that requires 250 s, with 70 s spent executing fp instructions, 85 s executed l/s instructions and 40 s spent executing branch instructions

(5 min, sec 1.10)by how much is the total time reduced if the time for fp operations is reduced by 20%?

(5 min, sec 1.10) by how much is the time for int operations reduced if the total time is reduced by 20%?
(5 min, sec 1.10) can the total time be reduced by 20% by reducing only the time for branch instructions?

a) For this case the new time to run the FP operation would be reduced 20% so that means 100-20% =80% from the original time

(1-0.2)*70 s =56s

The reduction on this case is 70-56 s=14s

And since the new total time would be given by 250-14=236 s

b) For this case the total time is reduced 20% so that means that the new total time would be (1-0.2)=0.8 times the original total time (1-0.2) *250s =200 s

The original time for INT operations is calculated as:

$250 = 70+85+40 +t_{INT}$

$t_{INT}=55s$

For this part the only time that was changed is assumed the INT operations so then:

$200 = 70+85+40 \Delta t_{INT}$

And then: $\Delta t_{INT}= 200-70-85-40=5 s$

c) A reduction of the total time implies that the total time would be 205 s from the results above. And the time for FP is 70, for L/S is 85 and for INT operations is 55 s, so then if we add 70+85+55=210s, we see that 210>205 so then we cannot reduce the total time 20% just reducing the branch intructions.

Explanation:

From the info given we know that a computer running a program that requires 250 s, with 70 s spent executing FP instructions, 85 s executed L/S instructions and 40 s spent executing branch instructions.

Part 1

For this case the new time to run the FP operation would be reduced 20% so that means 100-20% =80% from the original time

(1-0.2)*70 s =56s

The reduction on this case is 70-56 s=14s

And since the new total time would be given by 250-14=236 s

Part 2

For this case the total time is reduced 20% so that means that the new total time would be (1-0.2)=0.8 times the original total time (1-0.2) *250s =200 s

The original time for INT operations is calculated as:

$250 = 70+85+40 +t_{INT}$

$t_{INT}=55s$

For this part the only time that was changed is assumed the INT operations so then:

$200 = 70+85+40 \Delta t_{INT}$

And then: $\Delta t_{INT}= 200-70-85-40=5 s$

And we can quantify the decrease using the relative change:

$\% Change = \frac{5s}{55 s} *100 = 9.09\%$ of reduction

Part 3

A reduction of the total time implies that the total time would be 205 s from the results above. And the time for FP is 70, for L/S is 85 and for INT operations is 55 s, so then if we add 70+85+55=210s, we see that 210>205 so then we cannot reduce the total time 20% just reducing the branch intructions.

Answer from: Quest

the warning light flashes for a second or two when the engine starts. if it stays on, there's must be something wrong with the coolant. you should never dare to continue driving when the light is on. pull over as soon as possible and shut the engine off.

hope this is what you're talking about
