Implementation of a Proposed System for Automated Microcode Generation.

Abstract

This thesis develops an automated microprogramming system. This system is designed around the goals of usefulness, usability, and security. The problem of mutually-dependent fields in a vertically formatted microinstruction is addressed, and a solution to this problem is presented. The proposed microprogramming system is organized around a series of menus which are presented to a microprogrammer so that she can build microroutines by working on each microinstruction at a high abstract level.
