Abstract
Microprogramming is presented, here, as programming at a certain level, with this level's characteristics. In that way, we wish to react against the traditional presentation which only retains the micropramming's use for the control units'realization. In other words, we pretend that microprogramming is not a technique specifically hardware. Contrary, we attach to show its room in a general design process.
