Question 1.
What is a microprogram?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how a machine instruction is translated into commands.
Question 2.
Define Op-Code.
Show hintHide hint
It's part of an instruction that tells what to do.
3Question 3.
What does an Op-Code specify?
- Operation type
- Memory address
- Data type
Show hintHide hint
Focus on commands related to execution.
4Question 4.
Branching in microprograms allows for what?
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about how operations can adapt.
Question 5.
Design a microprogram that handles three operations: add, subtract, and multiply. Explain how you'd implement branching to avoid redundancy.
Show hintHide hint
Consider how much of the program can remain unchanged across operations.
Question 6.
Evaluate the performance impact of hybrid optimization versus strictly vertical optimization. Which scenarios favor either approach?
Show hintHide hint
Reflect on memory size versus execution speed.
