Q21.

An undirected graph G(V, E) contains n (n>2) nodes named v1 , v2 ,...,vn. Two nodes vi , vj are connected if and only if 0\lt |i-j|\leq2. Each edge (vi,vj ) is assigned a weight i+j. A sample graph with n=4 is shown below. The length of the path from v5 to v6 in the MST of previous question with n = 10 is

Q26.

Consider an instruction pipeline with four stages (S1, S2, S3 and S4) each with combinational circuit only. The pipeline registers are required between each stage and at the end of the last stage. Delays for the stages and for the pipeline registers are as given in the figure. What is the approximate speed up of the pipeline in steady state under ideal conditions when compared to the corresponding non-pipeline implementation?
