Pipeline problem
A 5 stage pipelined processor has instruction fetch (IF), operand fetch (OF). Instruction decode (ID), perform operation (PO) and Write operand (WO) stages. The IF, ID, OF and WO stages takes 1 clock cycle each for any instruction. The PO stage takes ... question is , Here I1 and I2 are dependent , so how can they start without any stall , no operand forwarding is also mentioned.
