A given ISA may be implemented with different microarchitectures.[1] Implementations might vary due to different goals of a given design or due to shifts in technology.[2] Computer architecture is the combination of microarchitecture and instruction set design. Relation to instruction set architecture The ISA is roughly the same as the programming model of a processor as seen by an assembly language programmer or compiler writer. The ISA includes the execution model, processor registers, address and data formats among other things. The Intel Core microarchitecture microarchitecture includes the constituent parts of the processor and how these interconnect and interoperate to implement the ISA. The microarchitecture of a machine is usually represented as (more or less detailed) diagrams that describe the interconnections of the various microarchitectural elements of the machine, which may be everything from single gates and registers, to complete arithmetic logic units (ALU)s and even larger elements.

Today is Wednesday, May 16th and we are at Intel in Moscow, Russia to conduct the oral history with Boris Babayan. Also present in the room are Lubov Gladkikh his assistant and Yuri Merling [ph?] the videographer. Thank you both for agreeing to do this oral history for the archive at the Computer History Museum today. Let’s start about talking about your childhood and would you give us your full name, where you were born, and tell us a little bit about your parents, if there are any siblings and what your childhood was like. Boris Babayan: I was born in 1933 in Baku, Azerbaijan, now it’s an independent state. My father was a technician, he was an electrical engineer, and my mother worked in the kindergarten. I finished 10 year secondary school in Baku and then moved in Moscow, where I entered the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. It seems to me that in Russia I definitely was the first student in computer science. Bochannek: Now, what made you want to go to Moscow to that institute? Were you interested in technical things? Babayan: Because I was interested in the technical education and some people told me that the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology is a very good institute, like MIT in the United States; it was established just after World War II, specially for education in the high tech.

  • Forth in Russia
    Forth in Russia Sergey Baranov St. Petersburg Institute for Informatics and Automation of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SPIIRAS) [email protected] This paper provides an extended version of a presentation made by the author at the International Conference “Development of Computing and Software in the States of the Former Soviet Union and Russia” SoRuCom-2011, held at the Yaroslav the Wise Novgorod State University (Velikiy Novgorod, Russia) on 12-16 September 2011 [27]. The purpose is to highlight the major milestones of Forth expansion in Russia since its early days, the current status of the Russia Forth community, and derive certain lessons learnt with an outlook into the future. Forth became known in the USSR since the end of 1970-ies. After its appearance in the US – the first official publication dates to 1974 – this language and associated technique of programming quickly won acknowledgement as a fast and efficient means for creating meaningful applications for microprocessor machinery, where efficiency of memory footprint and small program size were often vital. The Forth Interest Group [2] was soon founded, which is active still now, with the purpose to standardize this language and make it popular among software developers. At that time a rapid growth of microprocessors was in place, a widespread Soviet one was K580IK80 – a sound copy of Intel 8080. At the Computer Center of the Leningrad State University (now the St. Petersburg State University) a team was established with an assignment to develop software for a new Soviet microcomputer with this processor under a contract with customers from industry.
