The RT was based on the ROMP microprocessor, the first commercial RISC chip.

The term was retroactively coined in contrast to reduced instruction set computer ( RISC ).

The first ( retroactively ) RISC-labeled processor ( IBM 801-IBMs Watson Research Center, mid-1970s ) was a tightly pipelined simple machine originally intended to be used as an internal microcode kernel, or engine, in CISC designs, but also became the processor that introduced the RISC idea to a somewhat larger public.

The first highly ( or tightly ) pipelined x86 implementations, the 486 designs from Intel, AMD, Cyrix, and IBM, supported every instruction that their predecessors did, but achieved maximum efficiency only on a fairly simple x86 subset that was only a little more than a typical RISC instruction set ( i. e. without typical RISC load-store limitations ).

DEC's last major attempt to find a space in the rapidly changing market was the DEC Alpha 64-bit RISC processor architecture.

Alpha was born out of an earlier RISC project named PRISM, itself the final product of several earlier projects.

Another study was started to see if a new RISC architecture could be defined that could directly support the VMS operating system.

The decision was also made to upgrade the design to a full 64-bit implementation from PRISM's 32-bit, a conversion all of the major RISC vendors were undertaking.

When first released in 2001, Itanium's performance, compared to better-established RISC and CISC processors, was disappointing.

By the time Itanium was released in June 2001, its performance was not superior to competing RISC and CISC processors.

Each KSR1 processor was a custom 64-bit reduced instruction set computing ( RISC ) CPU clocked at 20 MHz and capable of peak output of 20 million instructions per second ( MIPS ) and 40 million floating-point operations per second ( MFLOPS ).

The first commercial RISC microprocessor design was released either by MIPS Computer Systems, the 32-bit R2000 ( the R1000 was not released ) or by Acorn computers, the 32-bit ARM2 in 1987.

Soon every major vendor was releasing a RISC design, including the AT & T CRISP, AMD 29000, Intel i860 and Intel i960, Motorola 88000, DEC Alpha.

In the mid to late 1990s, it was estimated that one in three RISC microprocessors produced was a MIPS implementation.

In other ways the MIPS design was very much a typical RISC design.

This was one of the major performance improvements that RISC offered.

By the late 1990s MIPS was a powerhouse in the embedded processor field, and in 1997 the 48-millionth MIPS-based CPU shipped, making it the first RISC CPU to outship the famous 68k family.

There was speculation in the early 1990s that MIPS and other powerful RISC processors would overtake the Intel IA32 architecture.

It saw use in some late-model Amiga machines and Amiga accelerator cards as well as some Atari ST clones and a Falcon accelerator board ( CT060 ), and very late models of the Alpha Microsystems multiuser computers before their migration to x86, but Apple Inc. and the Unix world had moved onto various RISC platforms by the time the ' 060 was available.

The 6809's state machine and control logic, unlike many processors of the day, was mostly implemented using a large PLA and asynchronous random logic ( a trait of early designs and, partly, of RISC ) rather than microcoded.

< tt > MMIX </ tt > ( pronounced em-mix ) is a 64-bit RISC architecture designed by Donald Knuth, with significant contributions by John L. Hennessy ( who contributed to the design of the MIPS architecture ) and Richard L. Sites ( who was an architect of the Alpha architecture ).

The first used the same graphics processor as the BBC Micro in mode 7 — the SAA5050 — but used software to ensure that it was fed with the correct graphics data.

AIX was the first operating system to utilize journaling file systems, and IBM has continuously enhanced the software with features like processor, disk and network virtualization, dynamic hardware resource allocation ( including fractional processor units ), and reliability engineering ported from its mainframe designs.

Finally a replacement for the aging Z80 processor was being developed in the form of an Intel 8086 board, and additional 512K 16 bit memory boards.

AbiWord had grammar checking before any other open source word processor, although a grammar checker was later added to OpenOffice. org.

Powering the system was an Atari SALLY 6502 ( Atari's slightly custom 6502, sometimes described as a " 6502C ") processor running at 1. 79 MHz, similar to the processor found in home computers ( Atari 8-bit, Apple II, Commodore 64 ) and other consoles ( Atari 5200 and Nintendo Entertainment System ).

The original Athlon ( now called Athlon Classic ) was the first seventh-generation x86 processor and, in a first, retained the initial performance lead it had over Intel's competing processors for a significant period of time.

Athlon was the first x86 processor with a 128 kB split level 1 cache ; a 2-way associative, later 16-way, cache separated into 2 × 64 kB for data and instructions ( Harvard architecture ).

This high-speed SDRAM cache was run at a divisor of the processor clock and was accessed via its own 64-bit bus, known as a " back-side bus " allowing the processor to both service system front side bus requests ( the rest of the system ) and cache accesses simultaneously verses the traditional approach of pushing everything through the front-side bus.

Eventually a product called the " Goldfingers device " was created that could unlock the CPU, named after the gold connector pads on the processor board that it attached to.

The eventual joint company effort, named Borland Office for Windows ( a combination of the WordPerfect word processor, Quattro Pro spreadsheet and Paradox database ) was introduced at the 1993 Comdex computer show.

The system, which was called George, with an application programmed in JOVIAL, was intended to support some 4000 terminals, but even after a fourth processor was added it couldn't handle the workload.

Reasons for this transition was productive uses for such monitors, i. e. besides widescreen computer game play and movie viewing, are the word processor display of two standard letter pages side by side, as well as CAD displays of large-size drawings and CAD application menus at the same time.

This was a version of Windows 2. 1 adapted for the 80386 processor.

Although the Alpha processor family met both of these goals, and, for most of its lifetime, was the fastest processor family on the market, it did little to affect the bottom line or repair the company's status.

NeXT's long-term aim was to migrate to the RISC ( Reduced Instruction Set Computing ) architecture, a processor design strategy intended to increase performance.

The result was the RISC ( Reduced Instruction Set Computer ), an architecture which uses a smaller set of instructions.

Reduced reelin mRNA prefrontal expression in schizophrenia was found to be the most statistically relevant disturbance found in the multicenter study conducted in 14 separate laboratories in 2001 by Stanley Foundation Neuropathology Consortium.

Reduced to a minor character, the new fictional Napoleon was not a world historical figure but an intimate one fashioned by each individual's needs and consumed as popular entertainment.

In the US this program was known as the Domestic Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum ( DRVSM ).

Martin and Tichenor's second book, " Reduced Shakespeare: The Attention Impaired Reader's Guide to the World's Best Playwright ( abridged )" was published by Hyperion in 2006.

" The Reduced Shakespeare Company Podcast " was also introduced in 2006.

# Reduced iodide uptake was not considered to be an adverse effect.

* Bank of England, Rotunda & Transfers office ( 1765 – 68 ), Court Room & associated office s ( 1765 – 72 ), Reduced Annuity Office ( 1787 ) demolished apart from the Court Room which was incorporated into the current building

Reduced collateral damage was another benefit of this " withhold " method.

Reduced Fat Jif was introduced three years later in 1994.

The Legend was introduced with a double wishbone suspension for the front wheels, and a modified Chapman strut with trailing arm rear suspension Honda called " RF ( Reduced Friction ) Strut Rear Suspension " with progressive rate rear coil springs that stiffen as they compress to combine smooth ride and good handling.

Reduced wheel size from to was also accepted ( it had been a matter the Equipment Committee had to investigate ) which saved weight.

The normal service round was " Full Charge ", a " Reduced Charge " round was available for training.

But by the late 1980s, AT & T had almost given up, sold most of its stake in Sun Microsystems, spun the UNIX business off as Unix System Laboratories ( which was later bought by Novell ), canceled its WE 32000 ( aka BELLMAC ) and CRISP ( C Reduced Instruction Set Processor ) microprocessor product lines, and just concentrated on networked server computer systems.

It developed from the company's CRISP ( C-language Reduced Instruction Set Processor ) design that was in turn developed from the C Machine experimental efforts in the late 1980s at Bell Labs.

From 1996 to 2005, the theatre was home to productions of the Reduced Shakespeare Company, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare ( Abridged ), The Complete History of America, and The Bible, The Complete Word of God.

TRIGA was originally designed to be fueled with highly enriched uranium, but in 1978 the US Department of Energy launched its Reduced Enrichment for Research Test Reactors program, which promoted reactor conversion to low-enriched uranium fuel.

The original ROMP had a 24-bit Reduced Instruction Set Computer ( RISC ) architecture developed by IBM, but the instruction set was changed to 32 bits a few years into the development.

Reduced to 250 personnel, the 821st CSPS remained in-country until February 1971, when it too was inactivated.

The seat of the Patriarchate was transferred to Venice in 1451 by Pope Nicholas V. Reduced to a minor hamlet, Grado was sacked by the English, who burned the city archives, in 1810 and by the French in 1812.

The play was written by Adam Long, Daniel Singer, and Jess Winfield, former founding members of the Reduced Shakespeare Company, and first performed at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 1987 and later played at the Criterion Theatre in London, where it ran for nine record-breaking years.
