  2. Reduced instruction set computer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_instruction_set...

    The Sun Microsystems UltraSPARC processor is a type of RISC microprocessor. In electronics and computer science, a reduced instruction set computer ( RISC) is a computer architecture designed to simplify the individual instructions given to the computer to accomplish tasks. Compared to the instructions given to a complex instruction set ...

  3. Instruction set architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_set_architecture

    v. t. e. In computer science, an instruction set architecture ( ISA) is an abstract model that generally defines how software controls the CPU in a computer or a family of computers. [1] A device or program that executes instructions described by that ISA, such as a central processing unit (CPU), is called an implementation of that ISA.

  4. Instructional design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instructional_design

    Instructional design (ID), also known as instructional systems design and originally known as instructional systems development (ISD), is the practice of systematically designing, developing and delivering instructional materials and experiences, both digital and physical, in a consistent and reliable fashion toward an efficient, effective, appealing, engaging and inspiring acquisition of ...

  5. Technical writing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_writing

    Technical writing is a labor-intensive form of writing that demands accurate research of a subject and the conversion of the collected information into a written format, style, and reading level the end-user will easily understand or connect with. There are two main forms of technical writing. By far, the most common form of technical writing ...

  6. Instruction pipelining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_pipelining

    Instruction 2 would be fetched at t 2 and would be complete at t 6. The first instruction might deposit the incremented number into R5 as its fifth step (register write back) at t 5. But the second instruction might get the number from R5 (to copy to R6) in its second step (instruction decode and register fetch) at time t 3. It seems that the ...

  7. Computer multitasking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_multitasking

    In computing, multitasking is the concurrent execution of multiple tasks (also known as processes) over a certain period of time. New tasks can interrupt already started ones before they finish, instead of waiting for them to end. As a result, a computer executes segments of multiple tasks in an interleaved manner, while the tasks share common ...

  8. Minimal instruction set computer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimal_instruction_set...

    Minimal instruction set computer. Minimal instruction set computer ( MISC) is a central processing unit (CPU) architecture, usually in the form of a microprocessor, with a very small number of basic operations and corresponding opcodes, together forming an instruction set. Such sets are commonly stack-based rather than register-based to reduce ...

  9. Time and motion study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_and_motion_study

    Time study is a direct and continuous observation of a task, using a timekeeping device (e.g., decimal minute stopwatch, computer-assisted electronic stopwatch, and videotape camera) to record the time taken to accomplish a task [3] and it is often used if at least one of the following applies: [4]
