Computer Arithmetic Algorithms
Seller: ReviBlio, Barcelona, B, Spain
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Condition: Excellent. This is a classic text about computer algorithms. This text explains the core principles of arithmetic operations in digital computers, making it suitable as a senior-level undergraduate or graduate-level course textbook for computer engineers. It provides detailed coverage of algorithms for basic fixed-point and floating-point arithmetic operations, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division hardware design. A significant feature is the inclusion of algorithms for complex elementary function generation, such as square root extraction, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions?operations often overlooked in general computer architecture books. It explores both conventional and unconventional fixed-radix number systems and offers extensive coverage of the IEEE 754 standard for binary floating-point arithmetic, detailing concepts like denormalized numbers, hidden bits, and representation errors. The book's value lies in presenting the algorithms within a technology-independent framework, allowing students and practicing engineers to select the most appropriate arithmetic algorithm for a given implementation technology or develop new algorithms based on the fundamental principles. It uses clear numerical examples to illustrate algorithm workings without relying heavily on gate-level diagrams, focusing on the underlying concepts. This makes it a valuable reference book for professionals working in the field of computer arithmetic and VLSI digital hardware design. Seller Inventory # ABE-1760356792870
