Very long instruction word (VLIW)

Very long instruction word (VLIW) is an instruction set architecture designed to take full advantage of instruction level parallelism in form of pipelining, multiple processors, superscalar implementation and multiple independent operations. It has its advantages and disadvantages and is used widely
