x86, the mainstream instruction set architecture for PC CPUs, originated from the Intel 8086 processor and has been in use for 46 years. Technology blog Hackaday claims that x86 will be extinct in ...

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 ...

Arm Holdings plc plans to cancel a license that gives Qualcomm Inc. permission to use its instruction set architecture in chips. Bloomberg reported the development today. Qualcomm, the world’s ...

RISC-V is an open-standard instruction set architecture (ISA), based on established reduced instruction set computer principles, that represents the fifth generation of cooperative projects done ...

Intel and AMD have established the x86 Ecosystem Advisory Group, aiming to harmonize the x86 instruction set architecture (ISA). This collaboration involves several prominent technology companies ...

Intel Corp. and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. today launched an industry group dedicated to improving the x86 instruction set architecture. Besides the two chipmakers, the consortium, announced at ...

Why it matters: Intel is gearing up for what the company considers the "next major step" in the evolution of the original x86 instruction set architecture (ISA). The Santa Clara corporation is ...

The architecture incorporates a reasoning-specific instruction set architecture, parallel symbolic processing pipelines, agent-aware kernel abstractions, and a unified memory hierarchy that seamlessly ...

Why it matters: Support for RISC-V is gaining momentum. The open standard instruction set architecture (ISA) derived from RISC wants to compete with Arm and the other big ISA standards on the ...
