Consider a 10-stage pipeline and a set of instruction which contains 50% independent and 50% dependent instructions. Let, the time required to finish an instruction is , and the overhead associated with each latch is . What is largest value of (w. r.t. ), so that the 10- stage pipelining of this instruction set is beneficial (in terms of time saving) compared to a un-pipelined execution of the same instruction set.

Ithink your answer is b

Through the process of sedimentation,sediment is turned back to rock to form sedimentation.the process of sedimentation is: > deposition-where fragments were deposited into the river or sea under gravity or travelling agent such as wind or water. > sedimentation-the fragments deposited in the river sedimented and accumulate> compaction-the layers of fragments deposited undergoes compaction due to the weight if the upper layers> cementation-chemical substance of the fragments such as cement dissolved into the water and cement the other fragments together to form sedimentary rock.thus,cementation and compaction are the process.on the other hand, transformation only occur when a rock under goes metamorphism(compaction or extreme heat).while recrystillization occurs when a rock is melted and cooled down,which also requires metamorphism to take place.hope it !
