Back in the early days of computing, manufacturers didn't build a whole line of software-compatible computer systems where each system was aimed at a different price/performance point. Instead, each ...

In computer science, an instruction set architecture (ISA) is an abstract model of a computer. It’s also referred to as architecture or computer architecture. Moreover, a central processing unit (CPU) ...

RISC-V International will announce that silicon on the ISA has reached 25% market penetration later this month. This outpaces ...

AMD and Intel marked the first anniversary of their x86 Ecosystem Advisory Group by confirming four jointly standardized ...

RISC-V ISA (Instruction Set Architecture) is designed in a modular way. It means that the ISA has several groups of instructions (ISA extensions) that can be enabled or disabled as needed. This allows ...

Chinese chip maker Loongson used to make processors based on MIPS architecture, but MIPS isn’t what it used to be and the company that developed the technology has even pivoted to making chips using ...

A Chinese government agency has expressed plans to decide on a single instruction set architecture (ISA) standard, something that could lessen its reliance on western intellectual property but could ...

According to reports from various industry sources, the Chinese government has begun the process of picking a national computer chip instruction set architecture (ISA). This ISA would have to be used ...

An Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) defines the software interface through which for example a central processor unit (CPU) is controlled. Unlike early computer systems which didn’t define a ...

Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) is a set of instructions defined for the processor’s architecture. These are the instructions that the processor understands. It defines the hardware and software ...
