Forward-looking: After being beaten by AMD in introducing the first, truly 64-bit instruction set in the x86 CPU world, Intel is now trying to get ahead of its historical competitor by working on a ...

At the Intel Developer Forum, Pat Gelsinger, Intel senior vice president and general manager of the Digital Enterprise group, said the Santa Clara, Calif. chipmaker is busy developing new instruction ...

Would you believe that you can take a relatively-modern Intel or AMD computer and install regular old MS-DOS on it? Well, you can (depending somewhat on the machine). Doing so will utterly waste the ...

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 ...

TL;DR: Intel and AMD have jointly advanced the x86 instruction set with new standards like FRED, AVX10, ChkTag, and ACE to enhance latency, security, throughput, and compatibility across devices from ...

The Android operating system is built to run on three different types of processor architecture: Arm, Intel x86, and MIPS. The former is today’s ubiquitous architecture after Intel abandoned its ...

An Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) defines the software interface through which for example a central processor unit (CPU) is controlled. Unlike early computer systems which didn’t define a ...

One of the oldest ideas in humanity – and one that may have predated language as we know it – is that the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Another adage is that he who has the gold makes the rules, and ...

A technical paper titled “Energy-Efficient Exposed Datapath Architecture With a RISC-V Instruction Set Mode” was published by researchers at Tampere University. “Transport triggered architectures ...
