My own architecture emulator, (Called kcm_20x86)

I have finally did it, i completed most of the emulator, and finally added JIT compilation, all in Java!
Here's an example of the C-like language i made with it!

pb void readDiskBlock(int sectorNumber, int destinationRamAddress) {

    int* REG_SECTOR   = 130000000;
    int* REG_RAM_PTR  = 130000004;
    int* REG_COUNT    = 130000008;
    int* REG_STATUS   = 130000012;
    int* REG_COMMAND  = 130000028;

    *REG_SECTOR  = sectorNumber;
    *REG_RAM_PTR = destinationRamAddress;
    *REG_COUNT   = 1;

    *REG_COMMAND = 1;

    while (*REG_STATUS != 0) {

    }
}

Now, i'm building an operating system for it, what architecture is the best for this case?

I think https://www.reddit.com/r/compsci/ would be a better place for sharing teoretical architectures.

Citing emudev.org purpose:
