Previous Year Question (PYQs)

Which of the following statements with respect to K-segment pipelining are true?

(A) Maximum speedup that a pipeline can provide is k theoretically.

(B) It is impossible to achieve maximum speedup k in k-segment pipeline.

(C) All segments in pipeline take same time in computation.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:




Solution

In a k-segment pipeline, theoretical maximum speedup is $k$.

So, statement A is true.

In practical cases, due to pipeline filling time, emptying time, delays and unequal stages, exact maximum speedup $k$ is not achieved.

So, statement B is true.

All pipeline segments need not take exactly the same computation time.

So, statement C is false.
