This paper surveys the current state of design and implementation of high level microprogramming languages. First, a number of important design issues are formulated. Next, four microprogramming languages are considered in detail, to see how each of them has approached these issues. Brief remarks are made about six other languages. Finally, some concluding remarks are made.
