Reclaims Silicon Wasted by Speculative Execution
By: Dr. Thang Tran, Founder and CTO, Simplex Micro
I have spent my career designing processor architectures, and I have reached an uncomfortable conclusion: a substantial fraction of the silicon area and power in modern high-performance processors… Read More
An Open ISA, a Closed Mindset — Predictive Execution Charts a New Path
The RISC-V revolution was never just about open instruction sets. It was a rare opportunity to break free from the legacy assumptions embedded in every generation of CPU design. For decades, architectural decisions have been constrained by proprietary patents,… Read More
Dr. Thang Tran is an innovator in modern computing, drawing inspiration from pioneers like Seymour Cray, Thornton, and Tomasulo. His work leverages the simplicity of the RISC-V ISA to advance microprocessor efficiency, integrating vector processing and scoreboarding principles foundational to early supercomputing.
