VISA: A variable instruction set architecture by Alessandro De Gloria is a Computer Science article available to read on EtoBox.

What is VISA: A variable instruction set architecture about?

This paper presents an instruction coding technique that allows to reduce the instruction width without limiting the exploitation of the machine resources. This result can be obtained by a dynamic instruction coding managed by the compiler.The technique has been applied to a VLIW-structured machine. The machine has an instruction width of 32 bits, while the number of bits needed to code all the functions the machine can perform in a cycle is 98.

Who reads VISA: A variable instruction set architecture?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Computer Science.
