Oh, but of course it was a Brit. If it's not a Brit, it's someone from China.
As Professor of Computer Science at the University of California, Berkeley, Patterson led the Berkeley RISC project and now is an active member of the RISC-V Foundation, which offers a free and open ISA with the aim of enabling a new era of processor innovation through open standard collaboration.
You should spend five minutes Googling David Paterson, because you have no clue what you're talking about. Patterson's first RISC ISA project was called RISC-I. As in One. That was in the 80's. RISC-V is the fifth iteration of his work in that domain.
