What is the minimum number of cycles needed to completely execute 1024 instructions on a CPU with a 12-stage pipeline

1035

Explanation:

Pipelining is a technique used in carrying out several instructions at the same time. The pipeline is divided into stages, each of which is attached to the next to create a pipe-like structure.

The parallelizability is calculated by multiplying the number of different instances of a given operation by the number of pipeline stages through which the operation can be separated.

From the given information:

The no of instruction (n) to be executed on CPU = 1024

The no of stages in a pipeline K = 12

The total minimum number of cycles = k + n - 1

= 12 + 1024 - 1

= 1035

i think its c but i'm not

answer(d) sequencing and iteration;
