Extractions: example Include the add-displacement to the ISA of S1 and modify S1 microprogram, the simulator is called "S1mx" Instruction addd r1, disp(r2) The displacement addressing is used to access a local variable in the stack frame (the activation record). r2 is used to hold the frame pointer. "disp" is the offset, which is the number of local variable, from the stack pointer. Let ir:disp be the bit 2..0 of the S-format (3 bit displacement) Meaning 1 (when the frame pointer itself must be dereferenced) R[ir:r1] = R[ir:r1] + M[ ir:disp + M[ R[ir:r2] ] ] Meaning 2 (when the frame pointer is in r2) R[ir:r1] = R[ir:r1] + M[ ir:disp + R[ir:r2] ] We will assume the second meaning (as it is faster) T = ADD( ir:disp, R[ir:r2]) R[ir:r1] = T To implement this instruction, the datapath must be modified to enable ALU to get an operand from the databus (to get ir:disp). We insert a multiplexor at one input of the ALU. Originally, the ALU has two input operands called RA, RB. Now the RB is "muxed" with the databus. The RA can be R[ir:r1] or R[ir:r2]. Note: this is not very clean, that RA can be either R[ir:r1] or R[ir:r2]. However it will suffice to illustrate the concept.

Extractions: [Abstract] [ Overview New Technologies Bibliography Microprogramming Abstract: The microprogram is the essential part of the computer which allows the interaction between hardware and software. In many processors, the microprogram executes machine code instructions directly on the hardware, providing a final level of interpretation between machine language instructions and the basic memory and arithmetic operations performed by the hardware. However, some new architectures do not implement a microprogram. Instead, operations in the digital logic level are run directly by software. In this project, I will examine microprogramming in terms of its role as the intersection of hardware and software, and in doing so, compare and contrast microinstruction-rich and microinstruction-deficient architectures, and examine various new approaches to hardware/software interaction.

Project Overview of the MOVE project at Delft University of Technology. This project is targeted toward the development of a transport-triggered architecture (TTA). A TTA processor is utilized by specifying data-transports as opposed to operations. The result is a CPU with a very slight control unit (indeed, if any) and a very complex compiler, which would generate code that coordinates hardware events. Out of the reduced-hardware, microprogram-deficient architectures I examined, this was the most minimal (?) of them.

Simple Microprogramming Automats

http://www.electronicsletters.com/papers/2002/0008/paper.asp

Extractions: References This paper is an attempt of introduction into the microprogramming automat matters, such as solutions of specific systems in case, when the block structure analysis is insufficient for the designer. It shows a simple example of the automatic machine done through programmable structure. The following part outlines a simple microprogramming automat realized on identical components base. Key words : Automat theory, microprogramming automatic machine, programmable structures. The available wide range of microcomputers or computer systems, quite often even specifically designed for industrial purposes, makes any discussion on microprogramming disputable. However, detailed consideration may result in viewing the microprogramming automat as the optimum solution. The essential criteria input are as follows Development intensity and duration out coming to development cost Volume of expected series and implementation price Dynamic properties of the implemented system Design flexibility and possible behavior after development end.

Extractions: References This paper describes basic principles of microprogramming automates. Fundamental parts are oriented to more complex hierarchical systems of microprogramming automates with combination of addressing and associative communications. Key words : Automata theory, hierarchical systems, associative communication, programmable devices. The available wide range of microcomputers or computer systems, quite often even specifically designed for industrial purposes, makes any discussion on microprogramming disputable. For the hierarchical structures with high demands on system dynamics special micro program automats could represent a suitable option. This paper is just for the theoretical introduction of the science and particular applications are matter of future development. The elementary criteria entering there are first of all the following: Development intensity and duration out coming to development cost Volume of expected series and implementation price Dynamic properties of the implemented system Design flexibility and possible behavior after development end.

Extractions: Previous Contents Next Chapter 1: Microprogramming We will start this module with a quick look back at some earlier implementation techniques. This is partly to set the scene, and partly to explain the background of some later developments (that were initially controversial). The control parts of computers prior to the mid 60s were constructed, essentially of electronic components structured into logic gates. It was quickly discovered that building computer, especially the control logic was complex and error-prone, and hence techniques were developed to further structure systems and reduce errors. Nevertheless, it was still difficult and complex, and errors were hard to fix. In 1957 Maurice Wilkes proposed an alternative called Microprogramming- at the time, it was highly impractical. (Incidentally, Wilkes was - and is - a highly significant Computer Scientist who was responsible for EDSAC, which tends to compete with the Manchester Mark 1 for the title of first 'real' computer.) However, in 1964 IBM launched its 360 range - highly significant machines in the 60s, whose influence on machine architicture design is still visible today, particularly in Intel 80x86 and Motorola 680x0 processors, whose instruction sets are essentially evolutions of the 360 original. IBM still produces mainframes today that use the same architecture. Only the top of the range machine was not microprogrammed, because it was not possible to provide the required performance (traditional methods, for all their faults, were fast).

Simplified performance of a particular program: Poor performance of single-bus CPU implementation: Serialization of register transfers. Multiple clocks per instruction. Very little parallelism. Poor resource utilization. Poor relative to what? One instruction per clock execution. (First achieved by RISC architectures.) Multiple instruction per clock execution - superscalar execution. How achieved? Multiple buses!!! This organization allows an actual addition to be done in one clock. How are the other sub-cycles affected? Simultaneous PC increment and MAR load. Direct, indirect, indexed, immediate addressing. MDR transfers. Instruction Unit. At beginning of each cycle, CPU stalls waiting on instruction fetch. Next fetch (maybe) can be overlapped with current execute. Buffers a few instruction - caches small loops. Branch prediction.
