Description
"This paper concerns computer architectures in which registers are virtual, that is, where registers need not correspond exactly to a real fast storage array, and, in particular, where there are many more registers addressable than fast storage elements implemented. There are many architectures where registers are to a greater or lesser extent virtual. One scheme, where the in-use registers are managed as a set associative cache, is explored in some depth - it is seen that such a scheme is not as unreasonable as it might first appear." -- Abstract on title page.
