Abstract
We describe the design of a purely reversible computing architecture, Bob, and its instruction set, BobISA. The special features of the design include a simple, yet expressive, locally-invertible instruction set, and fully reversible control logic and address calculation. We have designed an architecture with an ISA that is expressive enough to serve as the target for a compiler from a high-level structured reversible programming language.
All-in-all, this paper demonstrates that the design of a complete reversible computing architecture is possible and can serve as the core of a programmable reversible computing system.
