History. MIPS Computer Systems Inc. was founded in 1984 by a group of researchers from Stanford University that included John L. Hennessy and Chris Rowen.These researchers had worked on a project called MIPS (for Microprocessor without Interlocked Pipeline Stages), one of the projects that pioneered the RISC concept.Other principal founders were Skip Stritter, …

A mainframe computer, informally called a mainframe or big iron, is a computer used primarily by large organizations for critical applications like bulk data processing for tasks such as censuses, industry and consumer statistics, enterprise resource planning, and large-scale transaction processing.A mainframe computer is large but not as large as a supercomputer …

MIPS (Microprocessor without Interlocked Pipelined Stages) is a family of reduced instruction set computer (RISC) instruction set architectures (ISA): A-1 : 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 well as five releases of MIPS32/64 (for 32- and 64 …

Die MIPS-Architektur (englisch Microprocessor without interlocked pipeline stages; deutsch etwa „Mikroprozessor ohne verschränkte Pipeline-Stufen“) ist eine Befehlssatzarchitektur im RISC-Stil, die ab 1981 von John L. Hennessy und seinen Mitarbeitern an der Stanford-Universität entwickelt wurde. Die Weiterentwicklung erfolgte ab 1984 bei der neugegründeten Firma MIPS Computer …

MIPS（ Microprocessor without Interlocked Pipeline Stages ） ，是一種採取精簡指令集（RISC）的指令集架構（ISA）:A-1:19 ，由美国MIPS计算机系统公司開發，现为美普思科技。 MIPS廣泛被使用在許多電子產品、網路設備、個人娛樂裝置與商業裝置上。最早的MIPS架構是32位元，最新的版本已經變成64位元。

The Z3 was a German electromechanical computer designed by Konrad Zuse in 1938, and completed in 1941. It was the world's first working programmable, fully automatic digital computer. The Z3 was built with 2,600 relays, implementing a 22-bit word length that operated at a clock frequency of about 5–10 Hz. Program code was stored on punched film.Initial values …

In 1984 verliet Hennessy de universiteit van Stanford om MIPS Computer Systems op te richten, waar hij zijn eerste MIPS-processor ontwierp en openbaar maakte, de R2000. In 1988 kwam de verbeterde versie van dit model, de R3000. Beide zijn 32-bitsprocessoren. Later kwam er ook een 64-bitsversie vrij, de R4000.

Tandem Computers, Inc. was the dominant manufacturer of fault-tolerant computer systems for ATM networks, banks, stock exchanges, telephone switching centers, and other similar commercial transaction processing applications requiring maximum uptime and zero data loss. The company was founded by Jimmy Treybig in 1974 in Cupertino, California.It remained …

Range for storing integers. A 32-bit register can store 2 32 different values. The range of integer values that can be stored in 32 bits depends on the integer representation used. With the two most common representations, the range is 0 through 4,294,967,295 (2 32 − 1) for representation as an binary number, and −2,147,483,648 (−2 31) through 2,147,483,647 (2 31 − 1) for ...

Central processing units ARM. ARMulator; Aemulor; QEMU; MIPS. SPIM: The OVPsim 500 mips MIPS32 emulator, can be used to develop software using virtual platforms, emulators including MIPS processors running at up to 500 MIPS for MIPS32 processors running many OSes including Linux. OVP is used to build emulators of single MIPS processors or multiple - homogeneous …
