Abstract

This paper proposes a system that translates the machine independent intermediate micro-programming language(IML) into microcode, using the register allocation algorithm, the microinstruction format and the field information for the target machine emulation on a microprogrammable host machine. The IML, which is for PDP-8 emulation on a microprogrammable hypothsetical 16 bit host machine, is microcoded by the proposed system, and the validity of the algorithm in the proposed system is verified by executing a test program of the target machine on the emulator.
