A proposed radix- and word-length-independent standard for floating-point arithmetic
The Microprocessor Standards Committee of the IEEE Computer Society sponsors two groups drafting proposed standard for floating-point arithmetic. The first, Task P754, reported Draft 10.0 of a Proposed Standard for Binary Floating-point Arithmetic out ...
Binary Integer Decimal-Based Floating-Point Multiplication
This paper presents a multiplier that operates on binary integer decimal (BID) encoded decimal floating-point (DFP) numbers. It uses a single binary multiplier with carry-save feedback for both significand multiplication and rounding, and it is ...
