Pipeline and Vector Processing Q.2

2Comparing the time T1 taken for a single instruction on a pipelined CPU with time T2 taken on a non-pipelined but identical CPU, we can say that

Option : B
Explanation : Pipelining does not increase the execution time of a single instruction. It increases the overall performance by executing instructions in multiple pipeline stages.
For N=1
Pipelined CPU :
Total time (T1) = (K + (N – 1)) * T = KT
Non-Pipelined CPU :
Total time (T2) = KNT = KT
Considering buffer delays in pipelined CPU,
T1 > = T2
