...A Tale of Two Processors: Revisiting the RISC-CISC Debate Ciji Isen1, Lizy John1, and Eugene John2 1 ECE Department, The University of Texas at Austin ECE Department, The University of Texas at San Antonio {isen,ljohn}@ece.utexas.edu, ejohn@utsa.edu 2 Abstract. The contentious debates between RISC and CISC have died down, and a CISC ISA, the x86 continues to be popular. Nowadays, processors with CISC-ISAs translate the CISC instructions into RISC style micro-operations (eg: uops of Intel and ROPS of AMD). The use of the uops (or ROPS) allows the use of RISC-style execution cores, and use of various micro-architectural techniques that can be easily implemented in RISC cores. This can easily allow CISC processors to approach RISC performance. However, CISC ISAs do have the additional burden of translating instructions to micro-operations. In a 1991 study between VAX and MIPS, Bhandarkar and Clark showed that after canceling out the code size advantage of CISC and the CPI advantage of RISC, the MIPS processor had an average 2.7x advantage over the studied CISC processor (VAX). A 1997 study on Alpha 21064 and the Intel Pentium Pro still showed 5% to 200% advantage for RISC for various SPEC CPU95 programs. A decade later and after introduction of interesting techniques such as fusion of micro-operations in the x86, we set off to compare a recent RISC and a recent CISC processor, the IBM POWER5+ and the Intel Woodcrest. We find that the SPEC CPU2006 programs are divided between...

...identification and fulfillment of consumer needs. According to Kotler and Keller (2006), “good marketing is a result of careful planning and execution” (p. 4). As one of the world’s major airline corporations, Classic Airlines has escalated to a corporation obtaining 32,000 employees, over 375 jets, 2,300 daily flights, and sales growth of $ 8.7 billion (UOP, 2011, Week One Course Materials). Inspite of Classic Airlines successful tenure of over 25 years in the airlines business, they face present financial challenges because of reduction in stock prices, employee morale, customer insecurity, escalating fuel, and labor prices, and internal managerial differences. The object of this paper is to describe some of the marketing concepts that are discovered in week one’s reading and confer how these concepts relate to Classic Airlines’ marketing challenges and existing corporate culture. The various challenges posed for Classic Airlines offers an opportunity for the business to begin with a SWOTT analysis to Classic Airlines’ strength, weaknesses, opportunities, threats, and trends, within the airline business. After evaluating the SWOTT analysis, Classic Airlines should refocus on marketing with the notion that the importance to succeeding organizational goals entails of the corporation becoming “more effective than competitors in creating, delivering, and communicating superior customer value to its chosen target markets” (Kotler & Keller, 2006, p. 16). With a 19% reduction in Classic...

...and they have learning styles and personality traits that vary. It is a hard task to meet each learning style during one project, but individuals need to learn to adapt. For example, a visual learner must learn to adapt to writing notes during a lecture. In this paper I will develop strategies to help me, as a logical learner/thinker, communicate and collaborate well with other learning/personality styles. The Visual Learner The learning style assessment states that I am a logical learner; this means that I like to brainstorm ideas and create an outline. Being in an online class, I would be able to create an outline of ideas that the team members have come up with and post them on the computer for everyone to see. Individuals are able to post questions and responses on the computer; this is a strategy that will help visual learners keep up with what is going on. The Kinesthetic Learner A kinesthetic learner must be able to work everything through hands-on experience. I believe allowing this learner to be the one to type up the final version for an assignment would be beneficial. This will allow the individual to read the final paper while typing it up; therefore gaining knowledge from hands-on experience. The Interpersonal Learner This learner will definitely benefit from being in a learning team. The individual will be able to bounce ideas off other members, and then an individual with an organizer personality would be able to organize these ideas in an...

...Change Management Theory Name Institution Date Drivers for change Synergetic solutions Inc. as a company had specialized in assembling computers from major leading brands then later sold the computers at a subsidized price. The need for growth and expansion brought the issue of computer networking into perspective (Burnes, 2004). It was agreed that the organization should take part in this venture. In the event of effecting a change in any organization external and internal factors must be taken into consideration. At Synergetic, employee dissatisfaction is one of the major internal drivers. The employees have to be positively motivated to ensure that they welcome the changes and they take the initiative to learn new skills to aid the success of the change that was intended. “Morale largely surges when employees are empowered to aid reduce the impact of the company’s products and processes” (National Research Council Canada, 2003). Through incentives and bonuses for the employees they ensured success in one of the internal drivers of change. Another internal driver was better quality of their products in the market. Synergetic solutions had to come up with ways to ensure that what they were giving out in the market was performing at ultimate level. One other internal driver of change was humble financial performances which caused anxiety among employees. The fear that there might be future belt-tightening or company shutdown was a major fear...

...Analysis of Team Charter Kenisha Thompson MGT/521 Management Dr. Gail A Zwart November 21, 2010 Analysis of Team Charter Paper Introduction At University of Phoenix (UOP), a learning team is essential to the success of studying and is a requirement for all classes. The Online Learning Systems or OLS provides students with a unique way to learn and to attain a Graduate or Undergraduate degree. One of the requirements of studying at University of Phoenix via the OLS is to work in a Learning team. A Learning Team consists of three to six students working together to complete assignments and to learn from each other’s experiences and knowledge. Each team members bring to the team his or her unique skills, knowledge, background and experiences to contribute to the Learning Team’s assignments and eventual success. As a result of the vast differences in the makeup of the team, teammate must first learn about each other, and a sure way to do this, is by creating a Learning Team Charter. A learning team charter can help the team to improve performance, in despite, the personality types, listening skills and the level of trusts each teammate has. Personality Types There are five members on the team and four different personality types. The four personality types are ENTP, ENTJ, ESTJ, and INTP. According to the individual personality results, four of the team members are extroverted and one introverted. The second part of the test concluded that four members...

...Global Communications’ Case Analysis University of Phoenix Introduction The business of global communications has experienced an increase in services due to new and ever expanding changes in technology. “The past decade has seen a tremendous increase in internet use and computer-mediated communication” (Wright, 2005). With the newest advantages in telecommunication, consumers have the ability to make changes to their services over the internet at the touch of a button. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the telecommunications industry delivers services to customers that include television, Internet, telephone and other services through broadband and cable providers. “The largest sector of the telecommunications industry continues to be made up of wired telecommunications carriers. Establishments in this sector mainly provide telecommunications services such as such as wired (landline) telephone, digital subscriber line (DSL) Internet, and cable TV and Internet services” (United States Department of Labor, 2009). Global Communications leadership team includes: Katrina Heinz: Chief Executive Officer Sy Rodriquez: Executive Vice President of Consumer Marketing and Sales Nancy Everhardt: Executive Vice President of Small Business and Marketing Sales Joel Thompson: Executive Vice President of Human Resources and Public Relations In generating solutions, there are nine steps in the decision-making process that leadership teams must take into consideration...
