Abstract
The high end of microprocessor performance is currently dominated by Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) architectures. These machines execute one or more instructions per clock cycle. A processor such as the i8601 [1] runs with a 40MHz clock - requiring that on average an instruction must be delivered to the CPU every 25nS. With DRAM access times currently at around 100nS, timely instruction delivery has become a critical constraint on processor speed.
