  The evolution of RISC technology at IBM
Please note: This previously published IBM Journal of Research and Development paper was reprinted for this special retrospective issue.
We describe how these goals were embodied in the 801 architecture and how they have since evolved on the basis of experience and new technologies.
The effect of this evolution is illustrated with the results of several benchmark tests of CPU performance.

The 801 was a RISC CPU architechture designed at IBM in the 1970's, and used in various roles in IBM until the 1980's.
The 801 started as a pure research project led by John Cocke at the Thomas J. Watson Research Center[?] in building 801.
It was used in a variety of IBM devices including channel controllers for their 370 mainframes, various networking devices, and eventually the 9370 mainframe core itself.

 POWER to the people
IBM's four families of processors -- the Power Architecture™, the PowerPC family of processors, the Star chips, and even the line of chips that power IBM mainframes -- all have a common ancestor: the IBM 801.
IBM introduced the POWER5+™ processors, which are built with a 90-nanometer process similar to that used with the Cell Broadband Engine, in 2005.
Most of IBM Journal of Research and Development Volume 34, Issue 1 is devoted to the original POWER architecture, often referred to in those days also as "the RS/6000 processor" because it powered RS/6000 machines.

 Great moments in microprocessor history
Initially a research effort led by John Cocke (the father of RISC), many say that the IBM 801 was named after the address of the building where the chip was designed -- but we suspect that the IBM systems already numbered 601 and 701 had at least something to do with it also.
Even though IBM engineers at the time wanted to use the Motorola 68000 in the PC, the company already had the rights to produce the 8086 line (by trading rights to Intel for its bubble memory) and it could use modified 8085-type components (and 68000-style components were much more scarce).
IBM's Cheetah project, which developed into the PC-RT's ROMP, was a bit of a flop, but Project America was in prototype by 1985 and would, in 1990, become RISC System/6000.

IBM's four families of processors—the POWER architecture, the PowerPC family of processors, the Star chips, and even the line of chips that power IBM mainframes—all have a common ancestor: the IBM 801.
IBM Microelectronics also offers Evaluation kits for PowerPC cores, which come with schematics, source code, design details, and a comprehensive selection of tools to enable development of PowerPC-based applications.

 IBM 801 - Definition, explanation
The 801\ was a RISC microprocessor architecture designed by IBM in the 1970s, and used in various roles in IBM until the 1980s.
They were looking for ways to improve performance of their existing machines, studying traces of programs running on System/370 mainframes and looking at the compiler code.
In the early 1980s the lessons learned on the 801 were put back into the new America Project, which led to the IBM POWER architecture.

 A perspective on the 801/Reduced Instruction Set Computer
This project, termed the 801 project, questioned the trend toward complexity in computer architecture.
This made it possible to implement a machine without resorting to microcode, which improved performance.
This paper described the background and evolution of these ideas in the context of the 801 experimental minicomputer project.
