    ABSTRACT:: Microprocessor design practice is briefly surveyed. Examples
               are given for high-level and low-level tradeoffs in specific
               designs with emphasis on integrated memory functions. Some
               relations between architectural complexity and design are
               discussed, and a simple model is presented for implementing a
               RISC-like architecture. A direction for microprocessor
               architecture is proposed to allow flexibility for designing
               with varying processing technologies, cost goals, and
               performance goals.
