Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a sequence of operations for a CPU that reads three different memory locations sequentially while ensuring data integrity. Explain the freezing process in each step.

💡 Hint: Think through the steps and what actions must be taken before moving to the next address.

Question 2

Imagine a scenario where the MFC signal is delayed. Discuss how this would impact the MBR freezing process and the potential consequences for overall performance.

💡 Hint: Reflect on the timing of operations—how would a delay affect sequences in the CPU?
