A hardware definition of microprogramming
Gerhard Chroust · ACM SIGMICRO newsletter/SIGMICRO newsletter/SIGMICRO, TCMICRO newsletter · 1974
This paper tries to give a simple, effective definition of 'microprogramming' by reducing this notion to the concept of a 'microcontrolled' machine. The class of microcontrolled machines can rigorously be defined using the terminology of switching algebra.
