Datapath synthesis for standard-cell design goes through extraction of arithmetic operations from RTL code, high-level arithmetic optimizations and netlist generation. Numerous ar...
Late 2008, at SCAN 2008 in El Paso, TX, an effort to standardize interval computations was started by a working group of the IEEE Microprocessor Standards Committee, titled the In...
In this work we propose new decimal floating-point CORDIC algorithms for transcendental function evaluation. We show how these algorithms are mapped to a state of the art Decimal...
Hardware implementation of all the basic radix-10 arithmetic operations is evolving as a new trend in the design and implementation of general purpose digital processors. Redundan...
—The real Logarithmic Number System (LNS) allows fast and inexpensive multiplication and division but more expensive addition and subtraction as precision increases. Recent advan...
We introduce a novel left-to-right leading digit first dual recoding of an operand for the purpose of designing the squaring operation on that operand. Our dual recoding yields an...
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...
