I usually (and simplistically) divide CPU designs (implementations) into
two main categories:

- Pipelined
- Non-pipelined

Of course, there is a sliding scale at play, but let's not get into that
debate.

My question is: What is the best name for non-pipelined designs?
I'm thinking about CPU:s that transition through several states (one
clock cycle after another) when executing a single instruction (e.g.
FETCH + DECODE + EXECUTE), and where instruction and data typically
share the same memory interface.
