Line 254: == Decoding of horizontal micro-orders == I know of no IBM processor with horizontal microcode in which the micro-orders are not decoded. Typically [[Read-only memory\|Read Only Storage]] (ROS) was expensive, and it was cost effective to have a minal amount of encoding of, e.g., register selections, ALU function. Of course, horizontal microcode has more extensive encoding. Note that the definition in practice does not match [[ Maurice Wilkes#Other computing developments\|that]] coined by [[ Maurice Wilkes\|Wilkes]]. [[User:Chatul\|Shmuel (Seymour J.)
