1.The text states that you can eliminate the write-back stage of an unconditional branch under the assumption that the next instruction has been delayed.
(a)
Draw cycles 7 through 16 of

Figure 12.45(b) with that design.
(b)
Complete the table of Exercise 22 with that design.

2. (a)
In Figure 12.47 for one-bit dynamic branch prediction, what pattern of Taken outcomes

will produce the maximum percentage of incorrect predictions? What is the maximum

percentage?
(b)
In Figure 12.48 for two-bit dynamic branch prediction, what pattern of

Taken outcomes will produce the maximum percentage of incorrect predictions? What is the

maximum percentage?
