Floating Point Unit Generation and Evaluation for FPGAs
Most commercial and academic floating point libraries for FPGAs provide only a small fraction of all possible floating point units. In contrast, the floating point unit generat...

Accelerating Scientific Computations with Mixed Precision Algorithms
On modern architectures, the performance of 32-bit operations is often at least twice as fast as the performance of 64-bit operations. By using a combination of 32-bit and 64-bit ...
