The document compares key features of the ARM7, ARM9, and ARM11 processor architectures. The ARM11 has the most advanced architecture with an 8-stage pipeline, support for Java byte code decoding and SIMD instructions, static branch prediction, an independent load-store unit, and out-of-order completion. It also has the highest MIPS/MHz rating and smallest process size compared to the ARM7 and ARM9.
