The following table shows the increase in clock rate of eight generations of Intel processors over 28 year. What is the geometric mean of the ratios between consecutive generations of clock rate?

The following table shows the increase in clock rate of eight generations of Intel processors over 28 year. What is the geometric mean of the ratios between consecutive generations of clock rate? [12 points] 6. Processor 80286 (1982) 80386 (1985) 80486 (1989) Pentium (1993) Pentium Pro (1997) Pentium 4 Willamette (2001) Pentium 4 Prescott (2004) Core 2 Ketsfield (2007) Clock Rate 12.5 MHz 16 MHz 25 MHz 66 MHz 200 MHz 2 GHz 3.6 GHz 2.667 GHz

Explanation / Answer

geometric mean of the clock rate ratio will be given by calculating the seventh root of the product of clock rate ratios.

Geometric mean of clock rate ratio = seventh root of (213.36) = 2.15

Geometric mean of power ratios = seventh root of (28.78) = 1.62
