ARC is a firmware specification that was developed in the early 90s by a consortium including companies like Microsoft, SCO, and MIPS Technologies. It was loosely used by several MIPS, PowerPC, and DEC Alpha machines, as well as a particularly unusual SGI x86 machine. Most machines that implement ARC are loosely conformant at best, and more often, they directly violate the spec in some way.

ARC based systems expect a boot payload in ECOFF format, an extended version of COFF.
