The arithmetic unit is one of the important components of CPU design. For computation of complex arithmetic functions on hardware, the CORDIC algorithm is an attractive fixed-point algorithm that uses ...

Based on recent technological developments, high-performance floating-point signal processing can, for the very first time, be easily achieved using FPGAs. To date, virtually all FPGA-based signal ...

Floating-point arithmetic is a cornerstone of modern computational science, providing an efficient means to approximate real numbers within a finite precision framework. Its ubiquity across scientific ...

Altera Corporation changed the game as it relates to floating-point DSP performance in an FPGA. Altera is the first programmable logic company to integrate hardened IEEE 754-compliant, floating-point ...

At the recent Nvidia GTC conference, the company unveiled what it described as the first single-rack system of servers capable of one exaflop — one billion billion, or a quintillion, floating-point ...

This paper discusses a simple and effective method for the summation of long sequences of floating point numbers. The method comprises two phases: an accumulation phase where the mantissas of the ...

Goal achieved: The Jupiter Booster supercomputer at Forschungszentrum Jülich has now reached its planned computing power of 1 trillion FP64 floating-point operations per second. This makes it and ...
