The RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA) is one of the most notable contenders to emerge in the ever-evolving realm of computer architecture. Because of its modularity, RISC-V provides more ...

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 ...

The RISC-V project originated at the University of California, Berkeley, aiming to create a simple, modular, and extensible ISA to support computer research and teaching.

Explore how RISC-V is transforming the CPU market by enabling startups and companies to customize applications without licensing barriers, as explained by Ananant Systems' CEO Chitu Singh.

The instruction set provides the encoding and semantics, but it doesn't specify how it's implemented, leading to the plethora of RISC-V cores, chips, and boards.

First, some background. RISC V is an open-source instruction set architecture (ISA), a "free" alternative to Arm. ISAs provide a set of common, important but unglamorous "blueprints" ...

Facepalm: The open-source RISC-V instruction set architecture, evolved from other reduced instruction set computer (RISC) architectures, is winning international support and collaboration.

In this article, we introduce a dual instruction-set architecture, “Dual-IS”, that implements both RISC-V and TTA instruction sets with shared datapath resources by means of a lightweight microcode ...

This new technical paper titled “Symmetric Cryptography on RISC-V: Performance Evaluation of Standardized Algorithms” was published by researchers at Intel, North Arizona University and Google, with ...

The adoption of Android’s RISC-V free and open instruction set architecture (ISA) is gaining momentum. This architecture has been in the pipeline for quite a while as Google has been finding ...
