    RISC(Reduced Instruction set computer)that recognizes limited number of instructions..Reduced Instruction set computers can execute their instructions very fast because the instructions are so simple and their design is also simple(requires few transistors)...

    CISC(Complex Instruction set computer) is an architecture wherein each instruction performs different operations..

    In CISC emphasis is on hardware,size of code is small whereas in RISC emphasis is on software and size of code is large(low cycles)..

    FLOPS(Floationg point operations per second) is a basic measurement for processor performance(rating its speed)..
    Are you sure? This action cannot be undone.
