DGCAS as a microprogram development tool

Abstract

User microprogramming has entered a new phase nowadays. This is due first to the availability of "microcircuits" with the help of which one can build, easily, microprogrammable digital systems and secondly to the availability of "microprogram software support systems" with the help of which one can develop the microprograms he needs. A home made Generalized Cross Assembly System, named "DGCAS", which can be used as a component in a microprogram software support system, is described in this paper.
