-Over the course of 7 years, the [[category:places:microsystems_technology_laboratories|Microsystems Research Center]] of MIT undertook a series of advanced research inquiries in early Very Large Scale Integrated-circuit (VLSI) technology. Publicized as 428 unique papers documenting their research in three distinct phases, fifteen MIT faculty worked tirelessly to achieve this relatively obscure body of work which culminated in the design and fabrication of [[category:hardware|two unique chips]]. A detailed summary can be found by reading the final report [[category:vlsi_memos:a_coherent_vlsi_design_environment|"A Coherent VLSI Design Environment"]].+Over the course of 7 years, the [[category:places:microsystems_technology_laboratories|Microsystems Research Center]] of MIT undertook a series of advanced research inquiries in early Very Large Scale Integrated-circuit (VLSI) technology.

 Currently only a small number of these papers have been excavated from the MIT Archives with the studious help of the staff there. There presently remains the challenge of correctly converting RCA titles into their correct form. Currently only a small number of these papers have been excavated from the MIT Archives with the studious help of the staff there.
