SPARC (Scalable Processor ARChitecture) @ Wikipedia
SPARC (Scalable Processor ARChitecture) is a pure big-endian RISC microprocessor instruction set architecture originally designed in 1985 by Sun Microsystems. SPARC is a registered trademark of SPARC International, Inc., an organization established in 1989 to promote the SPARC and to provide conformance testing. SPARC International was intended to 'open' the SPARC architecture to make a larger ecosystem for the design, which has been...
