A non-pipeline system takes 50ns to process a task. The same task can ...
Data:Time for non-pipelined execution per task = tn = 50 ns
Time for pipelined execution per task = tp = 10 ns
Number of stages in the pipeline = k = 6
Number of tasks = 500
Formula
S = speed up factor
Calculation:Time for non-pipelined = Tn = tn x Number of tasks
Time for non-pipelined = Tn = 50 x 500
Time for pipelined = Tp = 1st task x k x tp + (All Remaining Tasks (k - 1)) x tp
Time for pipelined = Tp = 1 x 6 x 10 + (500 - 1) x 10

Given information:
- Non-pipeline system takes 50ns to process a task.
- Six-segment pipeline with a clock cycle of 10ns can process the same task.
Calculating the time taken by the non-pipeline system:
- For 500 tasks, the total time taken by the non-pipeline system can be calculated as:
Total time = Time per task * Number of tasks
= 50ns * 500
= 25000ns
Calculating the time taken by the pipeline system:
- In a pipeline system, the tasks are divided into segments that can be processed simultaneously.
- Each segment takes 10ns to complete.
- However, there is an additional overhead of pipeline latency.
- For a six-segment pipeline, the pipeline latency can be calculated as:
Pipeline latency = (Number of segments - 1) * Clock cycle
= (6 - 1) * 10ns
= 50ns
- Therefore, the effective time taken by the pipeline system to process a task is:
Effective time per task = Pipeline latency + Time per segment
= 50ns + (10ns * 6)
= 110ns
- For 500 tasks, the total time taken by the pipeline system can be calculated as:
Total time = Effective time per task * Number of tasks
= 110ns * 500
= 55000ns
Calculating the speedup ratio:
- The speedup ratio can be calculated as the ratio of the time taken by the non-pipeline system to the time taken by the pipeline system.
- Speedup ratio = Time taken by non-pipeline system / Time taken by pipeline system
= 25000ns / 55000ns
= 0.4545
- Approximating the speedup ratio to two decimal places, we get 0.45.
- Converting this to a percentage, we get approximately 45%.
- Therefore, the speedup ratio of the pipeline system for 500 tasks is approximately 4.95 (option B).
