after inserting a hint on fault-tolerant microarchitectures, i noticed the corresponding paragraph was removed only recently, with the following motivation:

'redundant computation is a form of sisd'. this may apply, e.g. if multiple processors are deployed for that purpose. it is not true in general. redundant computation can be well applied in one and the same microarchitecture.
'it contradicts the above paragraph'. i believe juliano refers to instructions being 'different' ones. they are different, the same instruction, but different instances. the same applies to sisd above.

any more objections? if not, i'd suggest to rather restore revision id 64861772.

Does Pipelinig systems really come under this category. As the term says "Single Data", In Pipelinig the functional units are effectively processing different data? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.57.57.112 (talk) 17:21, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Micron's Automata Processor may be an outstanding example of a MISD architecture. --94.36.200.39 (talk) 01:01, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

pipeline not example of MISD[edit]

Internally the pipeline is essentially sequential, so it can not be classified as MISD. Even the machinery to implement hyperthreading does not fall under the MISD classification. Besides this, the phrase using the term 'purists' is clearly out of context, unless there was a real debate to be presented. The only thing in this perspective seems to be the opinion of the writer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.58.253.2 (talk) 00:18, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Remove systolic arrays entirely[edit]

Why is this even in here. It clouds the entire discussion and makes it read like the author themselves that wrote the research paper are trying to get more noticed. There is already a Wikipedia page for systolic arrays. Just mention it is one type of MISD and refer to existing page instead of repeating it again. Keep information localized so that it can be proof read, verified, and discussed instead of spreading the topic among many different Wikipedia pages. This page would be clouded with so many discussions of MISD types it would be ridiculous to read. Wikipedia itself would be a bag of over information if this kind of approach was done. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:646:8100:9540:E1AD:ECE3:5446:640D (talk) 01:33, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: Moved, and dab page also moved. — Amakuru (talk) 14:59, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

MISD → Multiple instruction, single data – Propose to move the article title to the full name as it immediately becomes more descriptive and easily recognizable for users somewhat familiar with computer architecture, by recognizing the words "instruction" and "data". However, this may however conflict with WP:TITLEFORMAT. The same change has been proposed for SISD, SIMD, MISD, MIMD). Sauer202 (talk) 13:24, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support unlike MIMD Google shows lots of things for this acronym namely Mansfield Independent School District showing up 1st so I'd also move MISD (disambiguation) here. Crouch, Swale (talk) 10:27, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
