Abstract :
In order to develop a tool for generating debugging programs to simulate all kinds of microprocessors, it is important to determine a general way to describe them. A language, called the instruction set describing language (ISDL), is presented which can express any type of instruction set. After the user inputs the instruction set description table (ISDT), a DEBUG program of the required type is generated. The design and implementation of the generator on one IBM-PC are presented
