RISC processor

Concept

A RISC processor is evidenced here as a reduced instruction set processor category, exemplified by the Verified Architecture MicroProcessor (VAMP), a pipelined RISC processor used as a realistic model for model-based test-program generation and hardware conformance testing.

Overview

A RISC processor is referred to in the supplied evidence as a reduced instruction set processor. The evidence uses the term in the description of the Verified Architecture MicroProcessor (VAMP), stating that VAMP is a "pipelined reduced instruction set (RISC) processor" based on out-of-order execution.[RISC-expansion-and-VAMP]
