An ISA style in which only load and store instructions access memory and arithmetic works only on registers. Used by RISC-V and Arm, it gives instructions a uniform shape that is easy to pipeline.
Field: ISA & Assembly
In a load-store architecture, a memory value is first loaded into a register, arithmetic such as add or compare is done between registers, and results are written back to memory with a store if needed.
