Specula

1 GoKawiil brief on this topic

Student builds out-of-order RISC-V CPU core named Specula

A fourth-semester engineering student built Specula, an out-of-order RV32I processor written in Bluespec SystemVerilog, as a self-directed side project. The student says the project began after discovering their Ryzen 9 laptop chip used out-of-order execution, prompting them to attempt replicating similar complexity from scratch while still learning the Bluespec language.
