    Laboratory Exercise 1: Number systems and performances

    Task 1. Represent the number 29.25 given in decimal numeral system, into a numeral system with a
    base of r=2, 8 and 16.

    Task 2. Suppose a=001011 and b=101101 are given in RC system (two’s complement).
    a. Perform physical (arithmetical) shifting to the left and to the right for two positions.
    a<<2______________a>>2_____________ b<<2______________ b>>2_____________

    b) What are their decimal values (with a sign)?

    a__________ b ___________

    c) Calculate a+b and b-a binary and comment the result.

    Task 3. Convert the floating point number 29.25 (from exercise 1) according to the IEEE754 standard
    with single precision.

    Task 4. A processor executes a program in 10 seconds. Find the new execution time, if the clock rate is
    increased by 60% and CPI is increased by 25%. Find the new clock rate, if the new CPI is 5 and the
    program has 10^9 instructions.
