MMIX is a term that refers to a hypothetical computer architecture designed by Donald Knuth as a successor to his earlier MMIX architecture. It serves as a teaching tool in Knuth's work, particularly in his book "The Art of Computer Programming." MMIX is designed to illustrate modern computing concepts and programming techniques while being a RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) architecture. The name "MMIX" is derived from "MM," which stands for "meta-Machine," and "IX," signifying the Roman numeral for nine, indicating its position as an evolution from the previous MM model.
