If you don't have a compiler that can produce code to take advantage of the underlying processor architecture and instruction set, then the fastest machines will be useless.

如果您没有可以生成代码来利用底层处理器架构和指令集的编译器，那么最快的机器也将是无用的。

Since the SPU instruction set is not directly related to an existing CPU architecture, a new back end was written for both GCC and binutils.

由于SPU指令集并不与现有的CPU架构直接相关，因此我们为GCC和binutils编写了一个新的后端程序。

The other main type of processor architecture, CISC (the x86 processor being a popular CISC instruction set), allows for memory access in nearly every instruction.

另外一种主要的处理器体系结构CISC (x86处理器就是一种流行的CISC指令集)几乎允许在每条指令中进行内存访问。

Joel Birnbaum was the head of HP Labs at the time and he knew that RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing)architecture was the future and not CISC (Complex Instruction Set Computing).
