Ensure your work meets the requirements below.
ALWAYS type the problem before your solution.
Type your homework in PLAIN TEXT. See the examples from class.
Use a separator between problems, and use whitespace to group related work.
When dealing with equations, solve for the unknowns first. Only substitute numbers when necessary to obtain the a final numeric answer. You'll be more likely to get partial credit this way.
Use STANDARD SYMBOLS and UNITS. For example, use f for frequency and not a symbol like freq. Other standard symbols include T (time), P (performance), tau (cycle time), CC (clock cycles), IC (instruction count), CPI (cycles per instruction), IPC (instructions per cycle), P (power), L (capacitive load), and V (voltage).
Use MNEMONIC SUBSCRIPTS when you're dealing with different symbols of the same type. For example, CPIA and CPIB.
Include UNITS in all answers.
Highlight final answers using some textual convention. For example, ## f = 2.0 GHz ##.
