This week a new risk is that we are having trouble with double word instructions (MP and DDOUBL). If we cannot get those working we could be in trouble. In order to minimize risk we worked on debugging the RTL by running it on our double word instruction tests. Other things we are doing to minimize the risk of our project not working is coding up our interface between the DSKY micro-controller and the AGC CPU, and writing the AGC assembly code. The AGC CPU is therefore in the testing and verification phase, and we will begin full integration with the DSKY hardware soon, as well as the AGC demo programs.
We have no new big changes to our schedule this week. We are on schedule in the terms of RTL and ahead of schedule in the terms of DSKY work.
