Suppose the daytime processing load consists of 60% cpu activity and 40% disk activity. your customers are complaining that the system is slow. after doing some research, you have learned that you can upgrade your disks for $8,000 to make them 2.5 times as fast as they are currently. you have also learned that you can upgrade your cpu to make it 1.4 as fast for $5,000.
a. which would you choose to yield the best performance improvement for the least amount of money?
b. which option would you choose if you don't care about the money, but want a faster system?
c. what is the break-even point for the upgrades? that is, what price would we need to charge for the cpu (or the disk – change only one) so the result was the same cost per 1% increase for both?

Write a program that defines symbolic names for several string literals (chars between quotes). * use each symbolic name in a variable definition. * use of symbolic to compose the assembly code instruction set can perform vara = (vara - varb) + (varc - vard); ensure that variable is in unsigned integer data type. * you should also further enhance your symbolic logic block to to perform expression by introducing addition substitution rule. vara = (vara+varb) - (varc+vard). required: debug the disassembly code and note down the address and memory information.
