چکیده

1.3 [20/20] <1.6> Your colleague at AMD suggests that, since the yield is so poor, you might make chips cheaper if you placed an extra core on the die and only threw out chips on which both processors had failed. We will solve this exercise by viewing the yield as a probability of no defects occurring in a certain area given the defect rate. Calculate probabilities based on each Opteron core separately (this may not be entirely accurate, since the yield equation is based on empirical evidence rather than a mathematical calculation relating the probabilities of finding errors in different portions of the chip). a. [20] <1.6> What is the probability that a defect will occur on no more than one of the two processor cores? b. [20] <1.6> If the old chip cost $20 dollars per chip, what will the cost be of the new chip, taking into account the new area and yield?

Chapter 2 Case Studies with Alternate Exercises

You are tasked with designing a new processor microarchitecture, and you are trying to figure out how best to allocate your hardware resources. Which of the hardware and software techniques you learned in Chapter 2 should you apply? You have a list of latencies for the functional units and for memory, as well as some representative code. Your boss has been somewhat vague about the performance r...

Creating Alternate In-Basket Forms Through Cloning: Some preliminary results

Research on constructing alternate forms of assessment center exercises is very scarce. This study examines the effectiveness of a cloning procedure (incident isomorphic approach) for developing alternate forms of a computerized in-basket. In this approach, original and alternate items are essentially similar (they are based on the same critical incident), while being superficially different (t...

Comparison of electromyographic activities of lumbar iliocostalis and lumbar multifidus muscles during stabilization exercises in prone, quadruped, and sitting positions

[Purpose] The purposes of this study were: 1) describe a hierarchy of electromyographic activity production, using percentage maximum voluntary contraction of lumbar iliocostalis and lumbar multifidus muscles during prone, quadruped and sitting exercises; and 2) identify optimal recruitment exercises for both lumbar iliocostalis as a global multi-segmental stabilizer and lumbar multifidus as a ...

The Effect of Mindfulness Exercises on Female Nurses’ Self-efficacy: An Experimental Study

Background & Aims: Lower self-efficacy of female nurses compared to male nurses has been reported in numerous studies. One of the consequences of low self-efficacy is reduced quality of care, especially in challenging situations. Mindfulness exercises can ameliorate self-efficacy by reducing stress. This study determined the effect of mindfulness exercises on the self-efficacy of female nurses....
