The leaves are grey green and have a spine at the tip. One of the distinguishing features is that the point on the tip, which is typically dark tan, brown, or black, is darker than the leaf. Indentations of previous leaves show on the back of each leaf. The Huachuca variety grows in a rosette pattern as large as 2 feet in diameter. Because of its compact size, plus its low water use and low maintenance, Huachuca agave is considered a good landscaping plant for desert residential landscaping. It requires full sun. It is hardy to roughly 5 degrees Fahrenheit, though there are reports of specimens surviving temperatures at 20 degrees Fahrenheit. Parry s Agave is evergreen. Aged agave produce a twelve foot stalk with bright yellow blooms. They then die after blooming, as all leaf and root resources are put into the stalk, flowers, and seeds. It can be propagated by either offset or seed.

An application specific instruction set processor ASIP is a component used in system on a chip design. The instruction set of an ASIP is tailored to benefit a specific application. This specialization of the core provides a tradeoff between the flexibility of a general purpose Central processing unit CPU and the performance of an ASIC . Some ASIPs have a configurable instruction set. Usually, these cores are divided into two parts static logic which defines a minimum ISA instruction set architecture and configurable logic which can be used to design new instructions. The configurable logic can be programmed either in the field in a similar fashion to an FPGA or during the chip synthesis.
