[oc] hello!



Mr/Madam:
    I'm a student in master program in China. I major in E.E. I'd read everything about RISC1000 & RISC2000 in your web site. I'm very interested in your idea about RISC2000. I get several opinion. Maybe it's not right but I hope you can give me a response.
    I think the idea of "private register of FUs" will surely reduce the hazard in pipeline, but it will increase the number of registers. In fact it operates analogously to one hazard-handling method which connects the output of ALU to other stage of the pipeline directly to reduce the read-after-write hazard. But the "private register of FUs" can reduce more hazard (that is, increase more performance of CPU) at the cost of using more register, and it dose it with highly modularization.
    I'm sure that this idea will do, but only with either of two precondition. First it needs an elaborately designed instruction set & a very smart compile software. But I think the software needs too much AI to design. So I think more of the second field: asynchronous CPU, like ARMulet.
    I want to do some research on RISC & pipeline CPU recently, so I do hope you would give me a response. After all I must thank you for your web site. It's very valuable.
                                                  yours lei zhou
