✅ The verified answer to this question is available below. Our community-reviewed solutions help you understand the material better.

The question is based on the following information:

  Processor A:

RISC

8 bit address space

8 bit instructions

4 MHz max. clock speecd

Averages 4 clock cycles per instruction

Algorithm Q code size: 80 instructions

Cost: 20 money units

Processor B:

CISC

8 bit address space

16 bit instructions

20 MHz max clock speed

Averages 10 clock cycles per instruction

Algorithm Q code size: 40 instructions

Cost: 300 money units

We need to choose between processors A and B for a particular application which uses Algorithm Q. What are the predicted execution times for Algorithm Q if each processor is used with its maximum possible clock speed?
