The history of the microcomputer-invention and evolution
TLDR
Two "microcomputers" 10 years ahead of "schedule" are developed by scaling down the requirements and using a few other "tricks" described in this paper.
Decisive Aspects in the Evolution of Microprocessors
  • H. Falk
  • Computer Science
    Proc. IEEE
  • 2004
TLDR
It is shown that designers increased the throughput of the microarchitecture at the instruction level basically by the subsequent introduction of temporal, issue and intra-instruction parallelism in such a way that exploiting parallelism along one dimension gave rise to the introduction of Parallelism along another dimension.
