Have you studied pipelining? List the 5 stages of a 5 stage
pipeline. Assuming 1 clock per stage, what is the latency
of an instruction in a 5 stage machine? What is the
throughput of this machine ?

Answer / inspiredminds
5 stages are:
Instruction Fetch
Instruction Decode
Execution
Data Memory(Read/write)
Write Back
Latency(time required for the first instruction to produce
output) is 5 cycles and for long stream of instructions the
throughput is 1 instruction per clock cycle.
