RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture Extensions: A Survey
IEEE Access, 2023 RISC-V is an open-source and royalty-free instruction set architecture (ISA), which opens up a new era of processor innovation. RISC-V has the characteristics of modularization and extensibility, and explicitly supports domain-specific custom extensions.

The design of scalar AES Instruction Set Extensions for RISC-V
Transactions on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems, 2020 Secure, efficient execution of AES is an essential requirement on most computing platforms. Dedicated Instruction Set Extensions (ISEs) are often included for this purpose. RISC-V is a (relatively) new ISA that lacks such a standardized ISE.
