Morphology
microprocessing = processing (transparent) = micro + process + ing
This sense follows the literal idea of small-scale processing, so the meaning is easy to infer from micro- + processing.
Etymology
Microprocessing uses the parts micro- 'small' and processing 'to work on', like when scientists use a microscope to handle or change very small materials. So, microprocessing can also mean working with or changing things at a very small, almost microscopic, scale.
