ARMv8 {Ans: extension of ARMv7 with 64-bit address. ARM took the opportunity to redesign the instruction set to make it look much more like MIPS than like earlier ARM versions}operating system {Ans: (computer science) software that controls the execution of computer programs and may provide various services}subword parallelism (data level parallelism) {Ans: Given that the parallelism occurs within a wide word They are known as well as vector or SIMD, for single instruction, multiple data (see COD Section 6.6 (Introduction to graphics processing units)). The rising popularity of multimedia applications led to arithmetic instructions that support narrower operations that can easily compute in parallel.}LSL {Ans: logical shift left}Combinational element {Ans: An operational element, such as an AND gate or an ALU.}B.VS {Ans: branch on overflow set V=1}
