Title
Application of microprogramming to medium scale computer design
Abstract
The concept of microprogrammable architectures can provide the system designer with a powerful development tool. This paper describes the development process of a medium scale computer system, using a specific microprogrammable processor. The hardware architecture used in this system is referred to as the MPP (microprogrammable processor) while the resulting computer system is referred to as the MP-60. The MPP hardware was designed to accomplish two primary goals; to shorten the lead time for computer system development by establishing a set of hardware building blocks, and to provide a mechanism for computer system emulation.
