The molecular architecture of a protein complex that helps determine the fate of human cells has been imaged for the first time by researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley ...

RNA interference (RNAi) is a eukaryotic gene-regulatory pathway that silences the expression of specific genes in response to homologous double-stranded (ds)RNA. The RNA-induced silencing complex ...

Recent studies are revealing more about how the protein complex called RISC--RNA-induced silencing complex--works. RISC is at the heart of the gene-silencing technique called RNA interference, which ...

The Android Common Kernel is about to remove support for the RISC-V architecture. Android Common Kernel is Google’s fork of the upstream Linux kernel but with Android-specific additions. RISC-V is an ...

Adoption of RISC-V processors is accelerating. This technology, like everything, comes with benefits and risks. The open standard means freedom for many developers, but success depends on the ...

In “An Efficient Power Estimation Methodology for Complex RISC Processor-based Platforms,” Santhosh Kumar Rethinagiri, Rabie Ben Atitallah, Jean-Luc Dekeyser, Smail Niar and Eric Senn propose propose ...

Easier multi-device coordination: RISC-V facilitates better coordination among multiple edge devices through its open ...

Human Argonaute 1 protein (cyan) bound to let-7 microRNA (magenta). Ago protein family plays a role in RNA silencing processes. Cartoon model with semi-transparent surface. Shutterstock | petarg ...

Ten years ago, I waded into the then-raging “Mac vs. PC” wars with a lengthy treatise on “RISC vs. CISC: the Post-RISC Era.” In the conclusion to that article, I declared the “RISC vs. CISC” debate ...

RISC-V vendors are beginning to aim much higher in the compute hierarchy, targeting data centers and supercomputers rather than just simple embedded applications on the edge. In the past, this would ...
