Abstract
mcASM is a second generation Structured Microcode Assembler that is a, product of a joint effort between Advanced Micro Devices and Microtec Research. Years of bit-slice and microcode assembler experience by both companies has been combined with the latest in software technology to produce this advanced implementation of a relocatable microcode assembler. New features make mcASM faster and easier to use than conventional microcode assemblers so that the assembler package does more of the detail work. This allows the programmer to concentrate on the target system algorithm thereby achieving a more intelligent and more competeitve target system sooner.
