Little-endian (LE)
Byte ordering scheme in which bytes of increasing significance in a data word are stored at increasing 
addresses in memory. 
See also 
Little-endian memory
Memory in which:
a byte or halfword at a word-aligned address is the least significant byte or halfword within the word at 
that address, 
a byte at a halfword-aligned address is the least significant byte within the halfword at that address.

Load/store architecture
A processor architecture where data-processing operations only operate on register contents, not 
directly on memory contents.
Memory Protection Unit 
(MPU)
Hardware that controls access permissions to blocks of memory. An MPU does not perform any 
address translation.
Prefetching
In pipelined processors, the process of fetching instructions from memory to fill up the pipeline before 
the preceding instructions have finished executing. Prefetching an instruction does not mean that the 
instruction has to be executed.
Preserved
Preserved by writing the same value back that has been previously read from the same field on the 
same processor.
Read
Reads are defined as memory operations that have the semantics of a load. Reads include the Thumb 
instructions LDM, LDR, LDRSH, LDRH, LDRSB, LDRB, and POP.
Region
A partition of memory space.
Reserved
A field in a control register or instruction format is reserved if the field is to be defined by the 
implementation, or produces Unpredictable results if the contents of the field are not zero. These fields 
are reserved for use in future extensions of the architecture or are implementation-specific. All 
reserved bits not used by the implementation must be written as 0 and read as 0.
Thread-safe
In a multi-tasking environment, thread-safe functions use safeguard mechanisms when accessing 
shared resources, to ensure correct operation without the risk of shared access conflicts.
Thumb instruction
One or two halfwords that specify an operation for a processor to perform. Thumb instructions must be 
halfword-aligned.
