Computer arithmetic; proceedings.9780769528540 Computer arithmetic; proceedings. IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. Symposium on Computer Arithmetic (18th: 2007: Montpellier, France) Computer Society Press 2007 269 pages $197.00 Hardcover QA76.9 These proceedings of the June 2007 symposium include 28 papers on recent advances in the theory and implementation of number systems and basic arithmetic operations to hardware implementation of complete arithmetic units and their language support. General topics include the decimal floating point This article has multiple issues: * It is in need of attention from an expert on the subject. may be able to help recruit one. * It needs to be expanded. (including solving constants on the intermediate results of decimal floating point operations), floating point implementation (including a P6 floating point unit and a new architecture for multiple-precision floating point multiply-add fused unit design), floating point issues and operations, crypto See cryptography. algorithms (including asymmetric squaring formulae and spectral modular exponentiation Modular exponentiation is a type of exponentiation performed over a modulus. It is particularly useful in computer science, especially in the field of cryptology. Doing a "modular exponentiation" means calculating the remainder when dividing by a positive integer m (called ), elementary functions (including a return to hardware), and modular operations. Special topics include an accurate multiple-precision Gauss-Legendre quadrature quadrature, in astronomy, arrangement of two celestial bodies at right angles to each other as viewed from a reference point. If the reference point is the earth and the sun is one of the bodies, a planet is in quadrature when its elongation is 90°. . ([c]20072005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR) |
