Abstract—Some processors designed for consumer applications, such as Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) and the CELL processor, promise outstanding floating-point performance for ...
The design and implementation of a double precision floating-point IEEE-754 standard adder is described which uses "flagged prefix addition" to merge rounding with the s...

The paper introduces fine-grain clockgating schemes for fused multiply-add-type floating-point units (FPU). The clockgating is based on instruction type, precision and operand v...
