Upgrade the simulator to a pipelined core model.
• Update your simulate function to a loop that looks something like this:
while ( not end of simulation )
{ performRW performMA performEX performOF performIF
increment clock by 1
}
Each stage must operate on the output generated by the previous stage in the previous cycle. If the input latch to the stage has invalid content (e.g., in the very first cycle, MA-RW latch has invalid content), the stage must do nothing.
• Implement data interlocks and control interlocks.
