The instruction ishl (shift left integer) exists in jvm but not in ijvm. it uses the top two values on the stack, replacing the two with a single value, the result. the sec- ond-from-top word of the stack is the operand to be shifted. its content is shifted left by a value between 0 and 31, inclusive, depending on the value of the 5 least signifi- cant bits of the top word on the stack (the other 27 bits of the top word are ignored). zeros are shifted in from the right for as many bits as the shift count. the opcode for ishl is 120 (0x78).a. what is the arithmetic operation equivalent to shifting left with a count of 2? b. extend the microcode to include this instruction as a part of ijv.

3. ranga ramasesh is the operations manager for a firm that is trying to decide which one of four countries it should research for possible outsourcing providers. the first step is to select a country based on cultural risk factors, which are critical to eventual business success with the provider. ranga has reviewed outsourcing provider directories and found that the four countries in the table that follows have an ample number of providers from which they can choose. to aid in the country selection step, he has enlisted the aid of a cultural expert, john wang, who has provided ratings of the various criteria in the table. the resulting ratings are on a 1 to 10 scale, where 1 is a low risk and 10 is a high risk. john has also determined six criteria weightins: trust, with a weight of 0.3; quality, with 0.2; religious, with 0.1; individualism, with 0.2; time, with 0.1; and uncertainity, with 0.1. using the factor-rating method, which country should ranga select? why?
