. CISC processors have a large instruction set built into it. This large instruction set allows programmers of assembly language to use fewer instructions as the instruction set built-in would deal with the additional needed steps.

What does a RISC do?
RISC processors have a small number of essential instructions built-in. Each of these instructions can be completed in a single clock cycle. This reduced set means assembly programmers have to use more lines of code to achieve more complex results.

What is a GPU?
A Graphical Processing Unit is designed and made for processing graphical output from a computer. It can be integrated into a motherboard or it can be a dedicated graphics card that is plugged into the motherboard.

What is the difference between a CPU and GPU?
A CPU processes tasks in a serial order whereas a GPU has lots of smaller cores that are very efficient at processing large amounts of visual data in smaller chunks simultaneously

What is a Multicore System?
Multicore Systems are CPU chips that have multiple cores inside a single physical chip. These multicore systems allow multitasking more easily as processing workload can be shared across devices.
