“…Furthermore, signals entering the SPM first go through validation logic, and using one of the digits in the MU5 machine status register to validate the inputs, monitoring of a single process or part of a process can be carried out. The MU5 library [3] contains procedures for reserving and initializing the SPM, starting and stopping monitoring (by means of the machine status digit), and dealing with "store full" interrupts.…”

Following a brief outline of the background of the MUS project, the aims and ideas for MU5 are discussed. A description is then given of the instruction set, which includes a number of features conducive to the production of efficient compiled code from high-level language source programs. The design of the processor is then traced from the initial ideas for an associatively addressed "name store" to the final multistage pipeline structure involving a prediction mechanism for instruction prefetching and a function queue for array element accessing. An overall view of the complete IVIU5 complex is presented together with a brief indication of its performance.

While operating system command languages have improved in recent years, the advances have not yet been widely applied to other command interpreters. This paper describes an editor that has been given two features popular in operating system command languagesi/o redirection and programmable command files. The result is suited both to editing and to some repetitive reformatting tasks often solved by one-shot, ad hoc programs. Examples display the utility of the extensions, and implications for still other command interpreters are discussed.
