Abstract :
The author presents specifications for the development of a RISC (reduced-instruction-set-computer)-type universal assembly language (UAL) and its environment. The development of such an environment will be used as a testbed for evaluation of assembly languages, as a basis for translation of an assembly program into another assembly language (automatic compiler generator), and as an educational portable software package
