About this title

From the Back Cover

Document from the year 2024 in the subject Computer Science, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: RISC-V, an open-source Instruction Set Architecture (ISA), has become a significant performer in the realm of computer architecture, challenging traditional proprietary designs and opening the doors for innovation and customization. Initially in this work, RISC-V¿s historical evolution, its architecture, including its design concepts, instruction set, register file and implementations, were understood through a literature survey.A comprehensive literature survey is conducted on various variants of RISC-V family and their applications, which include lowering total costs, speeding up processor execution, consuming less power, and creating a more manageable and compact versions of the original architecture. The study includes a thorough analysis of several RISC-V variations. According to review of the literature, the 32-bit biRISC-V processor core is the newest member of the RISC-V family and using superscalar dual issue design to increase processor overall throughput.
