A new instruction set by the original creator of MIPS aims to reinvent the ultra-low power, high-efficiency processor -- and to do so with an architecture that's fundamentally open and available to ...

Try to investigate the differences between the x86 and ARM processor families (or x86 and the Apple M1), and you'll see the acronyms CISC and RISC. It's a common way to frame the discussion, but not a ...

RISC is a somewhat misleading term, as a RISC processor doesn't *have* to have fewer instructions in its ISA than a CISC system (Though RISC architectures do tend to try to do so). For example, the ...

The tech industry is witnessing a significant shift as the RISC-V 2024 architecture gains momentum, posing a formidable challenge and excellent alternative to established proprietary instruction set ...

There’s been a significant shift toward RISC-V architectures in SoC design. This article highlights its impact on the semiconductor industry and role in fostering innovation and flexibility in ...

A technical paper titled “RV-CURE: A RISC-V Capability Architecture for Full Memory Safety” was published by researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology and Arm Research. “Despite decades of ...
