CISC vs. RISC Architecture Explained by Emilia Kullutwe is a document available to read on EtoBox.

CISC stands for Complex Instruction Set Computing and refers to a type of microprocessor design that contains a large set of instructions ranging from simple to complex. While intended to efficiently compute complex instructions, it was later found that many small RISC instructions could do so more efficiently. As a result, RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing) was developed as the other major microprocessor architecture. Common CISC features include many instructions that directly access memory, variabl
