 +On February 12, 2015, a commemorative plaque was installed at EECS department at UC BerkeleyThe agenda for the event can be found [[Agenda|here]]

 +Here is the text engraved on the plaque:

 +===IEEE MILESTONE IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING AND COMPUTING=== 
 + 
 +===First RISC (Reduced Instruction-Set Computing) Microprocessor=== 
 + 
 +===1980-1982=== 
 + 
 +UC Berkeleystudents designed and built the first VLSI reduced instruction-set computer in 1981. The simplified instructions of RISC-I reduced the hardware for instruction decode and control, which enabled a flat 32-bit address space, a large set of registers, and pipelined execution. A good match to C programs and the Unix operating system, RISC-I influenced instruction sets widely used today, including those for game consoles, smart phones and tablets.
