Assume that a pipeline has 4 stages: S1 = fetch instruction S2 = decode and calculate effective address S3 = fetch operand S4 = execute

Assume that a pipeline has 4 stages:

S1 = fetch instruction

S2 = decode and calculate effective address

S3 = fetch operand

S4 = execute instruction and store results

The following code segment would be processed as follows in this pipeline:

Time Period: 1 2 3 4 5 6
R1 = R2 + X fetch instr. decode fetch X Add & store in R1
X = R3 + Y fetch instr. decode fetch Y Add & store in X
Z = R1 + X fetch instr. decode fetch X Add & store in Z

At which time period is there a resource conflict and at which time period is there a data dependency?
