О, кто-то перевел статью из EETimes, хорошо. Я думал делать пост на эту тему, но потом передумал, так как раньше писал.
А вот можешь посмотреть в сжатой форме бизнес статью про MIPS vs ARM vs Intel - http://news.yahoo.com/s/ibd/20100831/bs_ibd_ibd/545575
В частности наглядное сравнение для бизнес людей - we enable having three of our multithreaded processor cores in about the same area as two of ARM's processor cores

IBD: MIPS is much smaller than ARM. How will you compete?
Vij: MIPS has both 32-bit and 64-bit (able to grab bigger chunks of data) processors. ARM does not have 64-bit. MIPS has single and multithreaded (capable of doing multiple tasks at one time) designs. ARM does not have multithreaded.
MIPS has quad-core designs. They (ARM) also can go up to four cores, but only relatively recently. MIPS has been doing multicore implementations for 12 years or so.
IBD: Still, ARM has deeper pockets and can fund research to advance its designs faster.
Vij: ARM has been bigger in sales than MIPS for a while. But MIPS is No. 1 in (licensing to makers of) processors for digital TVs, DVDs and Blu-ray DVD players, set-top boxes, and Wi-Fi access points and routers for home networks.
IBD: You will also be going up against Intel.
Vij: They won't compete directly with us. They will compete with the likes of Broadcom, Sony and Cavium Networks. They all make or use chips based on MIPS designs and cores.
Сдаётся мне, что в долгосрочном плане позиции MIPS должны укрепляться по отношению к ARM и Intel. Тому есть обьективные причины, заложенные в архитектуре. Плюс крепкая команда и множество реализованных ею ценных фишек, типа многоядерности, компактности и энергоэффективности.
