The computer industry is on the verge of an upheaval, due to drastically new hardware and modern computational concepts. Read-only memories which operate near 0.1 microseconds are available, while large-scale integration (LSI) offers the promise of inexpensive, batch fabricated processing of logic and storage elements. The problem which confronts the computer designer is how to use these elements in an efficient manner to take full advantage of their speed and flexibility. Many approaches have been proposed, but none have shown a clear solution to the problem. The concept presented in this paper is the result of extensive development activities.
