Extra Questions

The document discusses the differences between loosely coupled and tightly coupled multiprocessor architectures, and highlights the features of GPUs. It also addresses the types of applications better suited for GPUs compared to CPUs, reasons for the shift to multi-core processors instead of increasing clock speeds, and outlines processor designs based on Flynn's Classification. Additionally, it examines the transition of Intel architecture to RISC instructions and the control unit mechanisms used in x86 chips.

1. Differentiate between loosely coupled and tightly coupled multiprocessor architecture.

Describe features of a GPU.


2. Which applications are more suitable to be executed on a GPU as compared to the CPU?
3. Why do processors have gone multi core rather than increasing clock speed? Describe
various processor designs according to Flynn’s Classification.
4. Intel architecture, at its lowest level, has transitioned to using RISC instructions, instead of
the traditional CISC instruction set. If that's the case, then are x86 chips still uses
microprogrammed control unit or does it use hardwired control like traditional RISC chips?
Explain.
