VFP

VFP may stand for:

ARM architecture

ARM, originally Acorn RISC Machine, later Advanced RISC Machine, is a family of reduced instruction set computing (RISC) architectures for computer processors, configured for various environments. British company ARM Holdings develops the architecture and licenses it to other companies, who design their own products that implement one of those architectures—​​including systems-on-chips (SoC) that incorporate memory, interfaces, radios, etc. It also designs cores that implement this instruction set and licenses these designs to a number of companies that incorporate those core designs into their own products.

A RISC-based computer design approach means processors require fewer transistors than typical complex instruction set computing (CISC) x86 processors in most personal computers. This approach reduces costs, heat and power use. Such reductions are desirable traits for light, portable, battery-powered devices—​​including smartphones, laptops, tablet and notepad computers, and other embedded systems.

Veterans Freedom Party

The Veterans Freedom Party (originally Veterans Federation Party) is a party-list in the Philippines. It is the electoral wing of the Veterans Federation of the Philippines.
