RISC = Reduced Instruction Set Computing
CISC = Complex Instruction Set Computing.
RISC has less instructions but apparently faster execution and less complex microcode, CISC has more instructions increasing the complexity of the microcode possibly slowing the speed.

RISC is designed with the philosophy that simplicity means fast, disregard the esoteric and combinatory cases.
CISC is designed in mind that if a procedure being designed into the CPU it would be faster compare to if it was written as software code.
