Zero instruction set computer (ZISC)

Zero instruction set computer (ZISC) is a computer architecture based on two fundamental ideas like pattern matching and absence of micro instructions. ZISC has its own advantages and is commercially used by IBM in ZISC35 and by Intel s NI1000. CM1K another ZISC has been developed recently.
