4.22.1 This exercise is intended to help you understand the relationship between delay slots, control hazards, and branch execution in a pipelined processor. In this exercise, we assume that the following MIPS code is executed on a pipelined processor with a 5-stage pipeline, full forwarding, and a predict-taken branch predictor:

[10] <4.8> Draw the pipeline execution diagram for this code, assuming there are no delay slots and that branches execute in the EX stage.
