RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing)

Reduced Instruction Set Computing (RISC) is a type of computer architecture that focuses on a small, highly optimized set of instructions. Unlike more complex architectures that have many specialized commands, RISC uses a simplified set that allows for faster processing and better efficiency. This structure enables the CPU to execute instructions in fewer cycles, enhancing performance. RISC is commonly used in modern devices, like smartphones and tablets, due to its ability to balance speed and power efficiency, making it well-suited for applications requiring high-performance computing at lower energy consumption.
