The PowerPC processor is used as the running example throughout the paper.

RISC Architecture implements → 100% 1e

The PowerPC processor is described as a RISC processor.

pipeline implements → 100% 1e

The PowerPC processor has a pipeline with fetch, decode, dispatch, execute and write-back stages.

Forwarding Mechanism implements → 90% 1e

The PowerPC verification plan includes checking forwarding mechanisms between pipeline stages.

Instruction Fetch ← part of 100% 1e

The PowerPC processor pipeline includes an instruction fetch stage.

Instruction Cache ← part of 100% 1e

The PowerPC processor includes an instruction cache (I Cache).

Data Cache ← part of 100% 1e

The PowerPC processor includes a data cache (D Cache).

Dispatch Queue ← part of 90% 1e
