An instruction format has the following structure:

Instruction Number: Opcode destination reg, source reg-1, source reg-2

Consider the following sequence of instructions to be executed in a pipelined processor:

I1: DIV R3, R1, R2

I2: SUB R5, R3, R4

I3: ADD R3, R5, R6

I4: MUL R7, R3, R8

Which of the following statements is/are TRUE?

Consider a 5-stage pipelined processor with Instruction Fetch (IF), Instruction Decode (ID), Execute (EX), Memory Access (MEM), and Register Writeback (WB) stages. Which of the following statements about forwarding is/are CORRECT?

Consider a 3-stage pipelined processor having a delay of 10 ns (nanoseconds), 20 ns, and 14 ns, for the first, second, and the third stages, respectively. Assume that there is no other delay and the processor does not suffer from any pipeline hazards. Also assume that one instruction is fetched every cycle.

The total execution time for executing 100 instructions on this processor is ___________ ns.
