Question

What is 80/20 rule?

(a) 80% instruction is generated and 20% instruction is executed

(b) 80% instruction is executed and 20% instruction is generated

(c) 80%instruction is executed and 20% instruction is not executed

(d) 80% instruction is generated and 20% instructions are not generated

I got this question in a national level competition.

My question is based upon RISC Processor topic in section Embedded Processors of Embedded Systems

Answer 1

The correct option is (a) 80% instruction is generated and 20% instruction is executed

Explanation: 80% of instructions are generated and only 20% of the instruction set is executed that is, by simplifying the instructions, the performance of the processor can be increased which lead to the formation of RISC that is reduced instruction set computing.
