RISC-V’s Increasing Influence
Does the world need another CPU architecture when that no longer reflects the typical workload? Perhaps not, but it may need a bridge to get to where it needs to be.

The industry is increasingly talking about benefits brought by the RISC-V architecture, but is it even the right starting point? While it may not be perfect, it may provide the flexibility necessary to move forward gradually.
Computer architectures and software have followed in the footsteps of processors developed 80 years ago. They aimed to solve sequential, scalar arithmetic problems using a foundational technology that could solve any finite problem, provided it had sufficient memory.
