32. MIPS ( Microprocessor without Interlocked Pipelined Stages) [1] is a family of reduced instruction set computer (RISC) instruction set architectures (ISA) [2] : A-1 [3] : 19 developed by MIPS Computer Systems, now MIPS Technologies, based in the United States. There are multiple versions of MIPS: including MIPS I, II, III, IV, and V; as ...

The MIPS architecture is an instruction set for computers that was developed at Stanford University in 1981. At the start, MIPS was an acronym for Microprocessor without Interlocked Pipeline Stages. Most of it is done in RISC. In a full RISC architecture, all commands have the same length.
MIPS microprocessors. Pipelined MIPS, showing the five stages: instruction fetch, instruction decode, execute, memory access and write back. The first MIPS microprocessor, the R2000, was announced in 1985. It added multiple-cycle multiply and divide instructions in a somewhat independent on-chip unit. New instructions were added to retrieve the ...

Iranian architecture or Persian architecture (Persian: معمارى ایرانی, Me'māri e Irāni) is the architecture of Iran and parts of the rest of West Asia, the Caucasus and Central Asia. Its history dates back to at least 5,000 BC with characteristic examples distributed over a vast area from Turkey and Iraq to Uzbekistan and ...
List of MIPS architecture processors. This is a list of processors that implement the MIPS instruction set architecture, sorted by year, process size, frequency, die area, and so on. These processors are designed by Imagination Technologies, MIPS Technologies, and others.
Three basic types of instructions. Arithmetic/bitwise logic (ex: addition, left-shift, bitwise negation, xor) Data transfers to/from/between registers and memory. Control flow. Unconditionally jump to an address in memory. Jump to an address if a register has a value of 0. Invoke a function.
