Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
CISC code can better utilise pipe-lining as the time needed for each operation can be predicted.
A
TRUE
B
FALSE
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A simpler instruction set may offer the potential for higher speeds, reduced processor size, and reduced power consumption. However, a more complex set may optimize common operations, improve memory and cache efficiency, or simplify programming.

Detailed explanation-2: -Some examples of CISC processors include Intel x86 CPUs, System/360, VAX, PDP-11, Motorola 68000 family, and AMD. Examples of RISC processors include Alpha, ARC, ARM, AVR, MIPS, PA-RISC, PIC, Power Architecture, and SPARC.

Detailed explanation-3: -one cycle execution time: RISC processors have a CPI (clock per instruction) of one cycle.
