华盛顿大学正在开发的宏模块是逻辑构建块，可以插入特殊框架并通过标准化电缆互连，以形成任何所需复杂性的数字计算系统。这些模块的逻辑设计充满了许多问题，其中一些很容易屈服于标准设计技术，而另一些则不然。本文的目的是提出目前使用的设计方法处理后一种类型的问题。具体地说，与其给出加法器、移位器、寄存器等的细节，讨论局限于模块内的逻辑的那些方面，其简化了将模块组装成工作系统的工作。异步控制，数据验证和字长扩展的一般领域进行了讨论和设计方法。这些方法，然后说明在宏模块化的数据传输操作的设计中，本文的结论是一些一般性的意见，现在使用的电路。
The macromodules being developed at Washington University are logical building blocks which can be inserted into a special frame and inter-connected by standardized cables to form digital computing systems of any desired complexity. The logical design of these modules is fraught with many problems, some of which yield easily to standard design techniques and others which do not. The purpose of this paper is to present the design approaches in present use for the handling of problems of the latter type. Specifically, rather than present the details of adders, shifters, registers, etc., discussion is confined to those aspects of the logic within the modules which simplifies the job of assembling the modules into a working system. The general areas of asynchronous control, data validation, and word-length extension are discussed and design approaches presented. These approaches are then illustrated in the design of the macromodular data transfer operation, and the paper concludes with a few general comments on the circuitry now in use.
