Abstract
As late as 1967, a prominent researcher reported to his organization that he believed a successful higher-level microprogramming language seemed unlikely. At the same time, other members of the same organization were describing what they termed "A Microprogram Compiler". Meanwhile, other hardware and software designers, equally oblivious of each other, were generating useful and powerful higher-level languages to assist them in their work. As the reader will see, the stage had been set for the development of a higher-level, machine-independent language to be used for the task of writing microprograms.Keywords
