An integrated microprocessor support software system
Christine L. Braun · ACM SIGMINI Newsletter · 1976
As the commercial use of microprocessors increases, the need for various support software tools arises. These tools include assemblers to aid in the creation of programs, and digital simulators to aid in their checkout. Raytheon's Automatic Micro Processor Support (RAMPS) system is an integrated set of support software programs designed to take advantage of the microprogrammable aspect of the target processor.
