Title: Tim A. Williams: A Pioneer in Data Processing Innovations

Introduction

Tim A. Williams is an accomplished inventor based in Austin, TX, with a remarkable portfolio of 19 patents to his name. His innovative work primarily focuses on advancements in data processing technology, which has significantly contributed to the field.

Latest Patents

Among his latest patents is the "Data Processor Having Split Level Control Store." This invention features a unique data processor structure that effectively partitions program memory into a macrocode portion and a microcode portion. The system employs two distinct machines—a macromachine and a micromachine. The macromachine is equipped with an instruction sequence controller designed to detect macrocode branch instructions ahead of the micromachine. It extracts a macroaddress from these instructions and provides it to the program memory for the next sequential instruction address. The pipelining of the macromachine allows it to execute branch instructions in parallel with the micromachine's execution of prior instructions.

Another significant patent by Williams is the "Data Processor with Combined Adaptive LMS and General Multiplication." This innovative data processing system utilizes the same hardware structure to implement general-purpose multiplication or arithmetic operations associated with the least-mean-squares (LMS) algorithm. The design includes multiplier and adder circuits that are time-shared to perform a wide range of functions. Notably, the system implements a modified Booth's algorithm for rapid computation of the output product by executing a series of multiplications and accumulations, all while maintaining continuous processing activity through pipelining.
