Abstract
Today's microprogramming of microprocessors includes the programming of the control unit as well as the structuring of the operation unit. This paper illustrates both tasks by presenting some concepts of architectures of microprogrammed and microprogrammable microprocessors. Special emphasis lies on the description of the influences of horizontal and vertical microprogramming and of space-sequential, time-sequential and pipelined processor organization on the design of digital computers. The paper should be understood as a tutorial, which is based on an except of a lecture on Principles of Computer Structures at the Technische Universität Berlin.
