Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/APRIL
It turns out that APRIL is not really a standalone CPU architecture, but a set of modifications to another, much more well known architecture, the SPARC. The combination of APRIL and SPARC is known as Sparcle, and is the basis for a multiprocessor called Alewife. I refactored the article to put more emphasis on the big system and less on the context-switching CPU modifications, and I now think it stands alone well enough; a http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=alewife+multiprocessor Google scholar search for the alewife multiprocessor found 1230 papers referring to it, http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=intitle%3Aalewife+multiprocessor 41 papers on this system with "Alewife" in their titles, and all four of the papers now mentioned in the article are well cited in Google scholar. But, with this new emphasis, the article should be renamed to Alewife (multiprocessor); I was |bold and did that part already
