For example, it is useful to have one field that controls the ALU and a set of three fields that determine the two sources for the ALU operation as well as the destination of the ALU result. In addition to readability, the microprogram format should make it difficult or impossible to ...
M3 is intended for research into unconventional special purpose stored program elements of computer systems (for example, a distributed computer Bus Interface Unit). The principal requirements for such a machine are flexibility and modularity. M3 consists of an application independent Kernel Machine to ...
The example of a video image processing apparatus as shown in FIG. 1 is provided for achieving high-speed data processing, and the same comprises an input/output portion 1 (hereinafter to be called an IOC), a memory portion 2 (hereinafter to be called a VIM) consisting of an input image...
way branch into an address table with 2xentry addresses spaced every 2yaddresses, where x is the number of bits in the address offset overlay and y is the number of bit positions that the overlay was effectively shifted. For example, an x overlay bit width of 3 and a y bit shift value...
If the operand is an immediate operand, a microprogram is used to output data stored in the field IMM of the internal instruction register 2 to the local bus 8. In carrying out, for example, the following same adding process, different microprograms should be prepared for respective combinati...
