First and foremost, RISC-V is a modular, open-source, instruction set definition and nothing more. RISC-V as an ecosystem is much more. The instruction set provides the encoding and semantics, but it ...

This paper presents an instruction set simulator of an 8-bit, MCS-51 compatible CPU core, and shows how to use it in embedded software development process; Method to control and debug CPU using ...

Power.org has released Power Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) Version 2.06, which incorporates significant advances for server and embedded applications that improve performance and efficiency and ...

Instruction-set simulation is a well established method for a variety of uses: as tool for architecture exploration of next-generation architectures, as reference model for design verification, and as ...

For more background, check out our Apple and ARM video. RISC-V is a processor architecture and instruction set developed at UC Berkeley. It's attracted huge interest from everyone from startups to ...

The registers inside the CPU, the machine code instruction set, and the ways in which the instructions interact with the registers and status flags are all intertwined. As you may recall, one of my ...

The Android operating system is built to run on three different types of processor architecture: Arm, Intel x86, and MIPS. The former is today’s ubiquitous architecture after Intel abandoned its ...

CATALOG DESCRIPTION: Design and evaluation of modern uniprocessor computing systems. Evaluation methodology/metrics and caveats, instruction set design, advanced pipelining, instruction level ...

EVM still powers the ecosystem due to tooling, trust, and compatibility. Vitalik’s April 2025 proposal aims to replace the EVM with RISC-V, an open instruction set architecture. RISC-V offers ...
