Design of a 10 MIPS Lisp machine used for symbolic algebra is presented. Besides incorporating the hardware mechanisms which greatly speed up primitive Lisp operations, the machine is equipped with parallel hashing hardware for content addressed associative tabulation and a very fast multiplier for speeding up both arithmetic operations and fast hash address generation.
