Many algorithms have been developed for implementing division in hardware. These
algorithms differ in many aspects, including quotient convergence rate, fundamental …

SRT [Sweeney, Robertson and Tocher (1958)] dividers are common in modern floating point
units. Higher division performance is achieved by retiring more quotient bits in each cycle …

Digital signal processing (DSP) is used in a wide range of applications such as speech,
telephone, mobile radio, video, radar and sonar. The sample rate requirements of these …

The electronics world is very well described in two distinct but dependent interdisciplinary
areas, namely hardware and software. Arithmetic operations are very vital building blocks of …

In recent years computer applications have increased in their computational complexity. The
industry-wide usage of performance benchmarks, such as SPECmarks, forces processor …

Digit-recurrence algorithms are widely used in actual microprocessors to compute floating-
point division and square root. These iterative algorithms present a good trade-off in terms of …

A division algorithm in which the quotient-digit selection is performed by rounding the shifted
residual in carry-save form is presented. To allow the use of this simple function, the divisor …

There are a number of techniques known for speeding up modular multiplication, which is
the main arithmetic operation in RSA cryptography. This note shows how to gain speed by …

We present a unified mixed radix CORDIC algorithm with carry-save arithmetic with a
constant scale factor. The pipelined architecture of the processor is determined by a unique …

An algorithm for square root with prescaling and selection by rounding is developed and
combined with a similar scheme for division. Since division is usually more frequent than …
