  • Why Instruction Sets No Longer Matter

    IEEE Global History Network

    This article represents the culmination of a semester's worth of research and discussion with Robert Garner, Peter Capek, and Paul McJones, on the varied topics of von Neumann and non-von Neumann machines, alternative architectures, Turing complete vs. non Turing complete languages, CISC, RISC, PowerPC, and the Cell Processor.

    This article represents the culmination of a semester's worth of research and discussion with Robert Garner, Peter Capek, and Paul McJones, on the varied topics of von Neumann and non-von Neumann machines, alternative architectures, Turing complete vs. non Turing complete languages, CISC, RISC, PowerPC, and the Cell Processor.

    Like many would-be historians, I had only a vague idea starting out what this project would finally be about though I knew it should be about alternative architectures in some manner or fashion. As the debate between von Neumann and non-von Neumann architectures is so largely one-sided it can hardly be called a debate at all, I decided to focus on the issue of RISC vs. CISC architectures.

    What I found out in the course of my research, was that now this debate too is largely a non-issue, though it was quite important for a brief period of time. That is great news for computer architecture but not so great news for a would-be historian/researcher of the subject.

    In the end, I have decided to explain how we arrived where we are: a place where instruction sets no longer matter.

    Abstract

    A system and a method are disclosed for presenting an interactive video ad in a mobile web browser that does not support embedded video playback in the browser. The interactive video ad comprises an overlay of transparent frame and visible elements, wherein the visible elements include instructions on performing a gesture to interact with the video ad. The system generates an HTML underlay, which is a web page with embedded link to continue playback of the interactive video ad and one or more interactivity options. The HTML underlay is displayed when the gesture is performed. Interactions with the video ad can be selected from the one or more options presented by the HTML underlay.
