Key phases of this project are:
-* Assessment of the missing RISC-V instructions (RISC-V RV64GC is only 96 instructions whereas POWER ISA SFFS is 214) which are present in Power ISA 3.0
+* Assessment of the missing RISC-V instructions (RISC-V RV64GC is only 96 instructions whereas POWER ISA SFFS is 214) which are present in Power ISA 3.0 and required to enable comparable performance from RISC-V with Simple-V/SVP64
* Implementation of the missing RISC-V instructions and instruction forms that makes is comparable with POWER ISA in the Scalar ISA space.
* Research and assessment of ARM7 and i486 (both on opencores.org)as to their feasibility for applying Simple-V Prefixing in future development projects

+By far the largest element of the budget is attributed to labour costs of the team involved from RED Semiconductor and LibreSOC - the project is entirely software-based and no additional hardware requirements are anticipated. A small budget of €5k is allocated to travel for key project review meetings, as the team is geographically dispersed.
# Does the project have other funding sources, both past and present?
