Including imput

Motor HP (if possible)
Material
Cutter Flutes
Type of cutter
Cutter diameter
Cutter Material

Output

Spindle Rate and Feed
Feed per tooth
You can find charts and even some basic calculators through Google.

At any rate, chipload is an input, not an output, and you need SFM as an input as well. As it stands, with the variables you have given, you can calculate neither a spindle speed nor a feed rate.
