Answer:
2
Explanation:
Instruction cache miss rate = 1% = 0.01
Data cache miss rate = 5% = 0.05
data access Instruction mix = 30% = 0.3
Cache miss penalty = 80 cycles
Determine the contribution to total CPI from the cache misses
Assume cache access time = 1 clock cycle
CpI ( average ) = 1 + (0.01 * 0.7 + 0.05 * 0.3) * 80 = 2.76
∴ contribution to total CPI from cache miss = 2.76 - 0.76 = 2
