Consider the following truth table for 3 logic operations NO, NAND, and XOR  on single bit a and b.     Also consider the following 1-bit ALU that performs AND, OR, and addition on a and b.                           Note that one can select between three values using the Operation select line to the Result multiplexor. Assume that the Ainvert and Binvert signals can be asserted or de-asserted and that the CarryIn signal can be de-asserted or taken from the CarryOut of the preceding 1-bit ALU.  Pick a set of control signals for each Boolean logic operator. Some will go unused.

When the following program (written in C) being compiled and loaded into memory for execution, where local variables “i” and “temp”  will be allocated in the process address space? int nums[10] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. 9, 10};void main() {   int i, temp;   int arrays[10];   i = 0;LOOP:   if (i < 10)      goto L1;   else      goto L2;L1:   temp = nums[i];   arrays[i] = temp;   i++; goto LOOP;L2:   foo(arrays);   return;}

Decode the following instructions represented as hexadecimal values. For each instruction (1) convert the hexadecimal value to binary, (2) identify the opcode value and instruction format that is used, (3) determine the binary values of each of the fields for that instruction format, (4) convert each of these binary values to decimal, and (5) represent the entire instruction in MIPS assembly. Each question is worthy of 4 points. 0x00725823 0xafaf010 0x27bdfff4
