| | Deeshaa.com : RISC |
 | | The aim of RISC is to address the problems of one such complex nonlinear system — the rural Indian economy — and to outline a solution that addresses the problem of economic growth comprehensively by accomplishing a set of interlinked transitions to a more efficient equilibrium. | | | RISC follows the logical trend of moving away from vertically integrated institutions to one of horizontal segmentation and specialization. | | | This is because the subsystems of complex non-linear systems interact strongly with one another, and even the most carefully thought through partial solution often fails to achieve its intended goal. |

| | Ars Technica: RISC vs. CISC: the Post-RISC Era - Page 1 - (10/1999) |
| | RISC was not a specific technology as much as it was a design strategy that developed in reaction to a particular school of thought in computer design. | | | It fails because RISC and CISC are not so much technologies as they are design strategies--approaches to achieving a specific set of goals that were defined in relation to a particular set of problems. | | | After charting the historical development of the RISC and CISC design strategies, and situating those philosophies in their proper historical/technological context, I’ll discuss the idea of a post-RISC processor, and show how such processors don't fit neatly into the RISC and CISC categories. |

| | RISC vs. CISC |
| | The simplest way to examine the advantages and disadvantages of RISC architecture is by contrasting it with it's predecessor: CISC (Complex Instruction Set Computers) architecture. | | | RISC does the opposite, reducing the cycles per instruction at the cost of the number of instructions per program. | | | Although RISC chips might surpass Intel's efforts in specific areas, the differences were not great enough to persuade buyers to change technologies. |

| | High Performance Computing: CISC vs. RISC |
| | RISC is central to HPC because it is the way a computers works with instructions to execute them to go more quickly and is designed, and refined, to go faster, which is necessary for huge and complex applications. | | | RISC, Reduced Instruction Set Computers did exist, but were less affordable and feasible and were thus considered inferior to CISC because of these faults. | | | RISC avoided this problem by keeping every instruction at the same length, making it easier for instructions to be pipelined in parallel. |

| | RISC Architectures |
| | RISC was also heralded a more quantitative approach to computer architecture, whereby careful experiments preceded the hardware design and sensible performance metrics were used to judge success. | | | The roots of RISC lie in three research projects: the IBM 801, the Berkeley RISC processor, and the Stanford MIPS processor. | | | RISC microprocessors have been the standard-bearers of performance, so Intel has embraced ideas from RISC and followed the quantitative approach. |

| | Risc OS is a ROM-based operating system, so it 'boots' in an instant on the original hardware. | | | I'd better mention straight away that I am by no means a RISC OS expert - most of the information I've picked up has been through trial and error, and hazy memories of many a school lunch-break spent tinkering in the computer labs. | | | Some of my favourite computers of all time (after the Commodore Amiga and Sinclair Spectrum, of course!) were the RISC-based Archimedes systems produced by Acorn through the early to late 90's, and found in many schools across the UK. |

| | PA-RISC 2.0 instruction set architecture (HTML) - HP DSPP |
| | In the mid 1980s, there was much heated discussion on the subject of the RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) versus CISC (Complex Instruction Set Computer) approach to computer architecture and design. | | | Although it has not yet caught on as a buzzword in the way that RISC has, it can certainly be argued that the term "Precision Architecture" - as in PA-RISC - is actually a much better description of what the design technique known as RISC is all about. | | | This rather simplistic method of evaluating an architecture (how many different instructions does a machine support) does a general disservice to the concept of RISC and can especially distort the value of mature RISC architectures such as PA-RISC. |

| | Bruce Jacob: RiSC-16 Architecture |
| | RiSC stands for Ridiculously Simple Computer, which makes sense in the context in which the instruction-set is normally used -- to teach simple organization and architecture to undergraduates who do not yet know how computers work. | | | The architecture has a whopping 8 opcodes, uses 8 registers, and is nonetheless general enough to execute fairly sophisticated programs. | | | I like the simplicity of the original design much better, but over time I became frustrated by not having an increment function or a quick way to get large addresses into a register. |
