1. Download a MIPS Simulator at the address. The link for the web site is: http://www.computing.dcu.ie/~mike/winmips64.html Easy to install and work with. Install and run for the sample code. Install in your system. Extract and execute for different
configurations: Execute in single cycle mode and see how the pipeline progresses for different configurations like, Without forwarding and with forwarding Run on multi-cycle mode to collect statistics for (i) no. of cycles executed and no. of instructions executed (ii) no. of RAW Stalls, WAR stalls, WAW stalls, Structural stalls and Branch stalls for any one of the program given in the file folder, taking the program as it is and note the CPI for all cases. 2. In the program, avoid stall after load by modifying the code by moving an instruction immediately after load statement and collect the above statistics again. 3. Choose any one of the Lab exercise given, write your own MIPS code, put in .s file folder and execute it. And collect the statistics.
