For software, we can have the microprocessor to work with different low power modes by setting the controller bit of the corresponding register.

软件上，通过设置相应寄存器的控制位，可以使单片机在不同的低功耗模式下工作。

The result is that the execution of a particular program accelerates as the microprocessor tunes itself to run the software as efficiently as possible something that would be a nightmare to do in hardware alone.

Another microprocessor in development, the Loongson, would use existing software and could eventually become a competitor to Intel and others.

This program is then fed into a second piece of software called a compiler, which translates it into a sequence of machine instructions for a specific kind of microprocessor, such as Intel's x86 family, which can then run the original program.
