The subject of this paper is basically micro-programming as a design tool, the program of the meeting notwithstanding. This subject of microprogramming has received a great deal of attention in the last several years, primarily as a possible method of making the so-called general purpose computers more flexible. It has been propounded by some that microprogramming offers a technique whereby the user would be free to define, in some degree, the machine organization. However, microprogramming has other rather intriguing possibilities. Some of these have been realized recently at the ElectroData Division of the Burroughs Corporation.
