RISC-V processors are quickly becoming mainstream. The open standard means freedom for many developers, but success depends on the development of a support ecosystem around RISC-V. Industry ...

The molecular architecture of a protein complex that helps determine the fate of human cells has been imaged for the first time by researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley ...

In an attempt to accelerate RISC-V adoption, a global consortium of industry leaders has banded together to form the RISC-V Software Ecosystem (RISE) Project. According to the project’s press release, ...

Recent studies are revealing more about how the protein complex called RISC--RNA-induced silencing complex--works. RISC is at the heart of the gene-silencing technique called RNA interference, which ...

RNA interference (RNAi) is a eukaryotic gene-regulatory pathway that silences the expression of specific genes in response to homologous double-stranded (ds)RNA. The RNA-induced silencing complex ...

In “An Efficient Power Estimation Methodology for Complex RISC Processor-based Platforms,” Santhosh Kumar Rethinagiri, Rabie Ben Atitallah, Jean-Luc Dekeyser, Smail Niar and Eric Senn propose propose ...

Why it matters: RISC V pioneer SiFive has gone through several iterations, but has now solidified a business model that essentially positions it as a direct competitor to Arm. If they can continue to ...
