Abstract
Germane to the realisation of fixed-function, real-time computational systems is the operation of multiplication. Reflecting its importance in the context of this text, this chapter addresses the historical and theoretical background to serial-data multiplication. A short (and by no means comprehensive) overview of bit-parallel multiplication is included for contextual reasons. More detailed treatment of the subject may be found in [81, 151, 159, 171, 172].
