Abstract

In this paper we report on a new computer with several novel features. These features are applications of the concept of tagged architecture, and although some of them are not unique to the Rice Research Computer (R-2), they focus our attention on this radical design form, its advantages and disadvantages. Since the work is still in progress, we limit this report to a discussion of the architecture and a few of its ramifications.
