Message-ID: <253@houxk.UUCP> Date: Mon, 23-Apr-84 09:33:11 EST Article-I.D.: houxk.253 Posted: Mon Apr 23 09:33:11 1984 Date-Received: Tue, 24-Apr-84 00:57:48 EST Organization: AT&T Bell Labs, Holmdel NJ Lines: 15 RISC is a neat idea but it has gotten enormous air play. It is no longer risque' enough for my taste and often borders on trite. There must be other architectural concepts we can kick around. May I suggest a few to get the ball rolling? 1. how do supercomputer vectoring compilers work. 2. OS issues of mutiple cpus trying to run different parts of the same process. 3. solutions to the multiple cache, multiple copy, coherency problem? rdt
