Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to explore the relation between the sequencing functions of microprogrammable computers and the implementation of the control constructs of flowchartable logic with modular microcode. So far, there has been little or no discussion of this topic in the literature [8]. Sequencing functions for various microprogrammable processors are described in Section 2; the implementation of the Mills' control constructs using various sets ofsequencing functions is discussed in Section 3; and a discussion of the sequencing requirements for the microcoded implementation of various functions parsing algorithms is given in Section 4.
