One instruction set computers (OISC) are more than a joke, I suppose, but I didn't dig far into theoretical computer science and can't say, what's important about them.

They're for highly parallel programable SIMD number crunching. The OISC would allow for easily fabricating a whole heaping bunch of ALUs.
