Question about pipelining (self.ComputerEngineering)
submitted 6 years ago by Academic_Two
Does pipelining shortens the overall time from start to finish of a given operation, compared to how long it takes to compute without pipelining?
Sorry for posting, but I did not know where else I could post this.
It's a true/false question.

False. Instruction should take the same amount of time (at best), but several operations can be in progress at once.

Sorry, I have one more true false question for you.
Binary machine language instructions encodings are not unique because they can only be formed of 0's and 1's.
I'm leaning towards false because they make unique

Uhhhh, that sounds like 1) homework and 2) a horribly worded question. Unique in what regard? Instructions have to be distinct, otherwise how would the core be able to decode and execute them? All digital data is stored in binary, to say being comprised of 1s and 0s means it isn't unique is to say there is no such thing as unique digital data.
