Beschreibung

Print on Demand. This book is the fruit of groundbreaking research on techniques for automating a tedious and error-prone task called microcode compaction. It focuses on a novel procedure called trace scheduling. The author provides an overview of earlier trace scheduling research and describes a new, more complex procedure. The book then presents the results of an implemented version of the new procedure tested on several microcode sequences. It compares the new procedure with local compaction and manual compaction, demonstrating its equal or greater efficacy. The book concludes with evaluations of the new procedure and suggestions for further research. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

Excerpt from A Preliminary Evaluation of Trace Scheduling for Global Microcode Compaction

Fisher has recently described a new procedure for global microcode compaction which he calls trace scheduling. We have implemented this procedure and tested it on several microcode sequences. We report in this correspondence on the relative effectiveness of local compaction, manual compaction, and trace scheduling on these sequences.
