Right off the bat, let’s give a shout out to the mathematician propeller-heads who create the transformations that make it possible to do all kinds of high performance computing to simulate, model, ...

A team of engineers at Fudan University has successfully designed, built and run a 32-bit RISC-V microprocessor that uses molybdenum disulfide instead of silicon as its semiconductor component. Their ...

Every major computing era has been defined not by technology, but by a dominant workload—and by how well processor architectures adapted to it. The personal computer era rewarded general-purpose ...

RISC-V is an open-source Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) that rapidly transforms the CPU design and development landscape. Unlike proprietary ISAs, RISC-V allows free access to architecture ...

RISC (reduced instruction set computer), and CISC (complex instruction set computer). These two principles govern fundamental choices of CPU design and implementation. RISC architectures, such as ARM, ...

Superconducting digital computing (SDC) based on Josephson junctions (JJs) offers significant potential for enhancing compute throughput and reducing energy consumption compared to conventional ...

This is a 32-bit 5-stage pipelined RISC-V CPU that supports basic instructions and some vector arithmetic. In order to tape out, gate level synthesis and APR are done as well. The simulation was done ...

The industry is increasingly talking about benefits brought by the RISC-V architecture, but is it even the right starting point? While it may not be perfect, it may provide the flexibility necessary ...

Computer science is now among the U.S. college majors with the highest unemployment, ranking 7th with a jobless rate of 6.1%, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The figure reflects the ...
