  ARM architecture - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ARM variants are in widespread use in embedded and low-power applications due to their power saving design features.
Acorn had a long line of computers based on the 6502, so a chip that was similar to program could represent a significant advantage for the company.
ARM have implemented a technology that allows certain of their architectures to execute Java bytecode natively in hardware, in another execution mode alongside the existing ARM and Thumb modes and accessed in a similar fashion to ARM/Thumb interworking.

The Acorn RISC Machine (or ARM) is a RISC processor architecture that is widely used in a number of applications.
The ARM chip has become one of the most used CPU designs in the world, found in everything from hard drives, to mobile phones, to routers, to calculators.
Moreover, ARM have implemented a technology that allows certain of their architectures to execute Java bytecode natively in hardware, in another execution mode alongside the existing ARM and THUMB modes and accessed in a similar fashion to ARM/THUMB interworking.

In April 1984 Acorn won the Queen's Award for Technology for the BBC Micro and in September 1985 Olivetti took a controlling interest in Acorn.
In 1983 Acorn began to design the Acorn RISC Machine (ARM), the first low-cost, high volume RISC processor chip (later renamed the Advanced RISC Machine).
With 1992 revenues of 48.2 million pounds, Acorn Computers was the premier supplier of Information Technology products to UK education and had been the leading provider of 32-bit RISC based personal computers since 1987.

Acorn are a small (on the order of 250 employees) computer company based in Cambridge, England.
For several years now, Acorn's main products have been based around a RISC processor called the ARM (this used to stand for "Acorn RISC Machine", but since then the bit of Acorn that made the ARM has split off from the main company, and the "A" now stands for "Advanced").
The machine had possibly one of the best versions of BASIC out of all of the computers at the time and also had good expansion capabilities including networking (Econet), a disc interface, and a second processor.
