Abstract
In computer arithmetic two fundamental design principles are of great importance: number representation and the implementation of algebraic operations [25, 26, 27, 28, 29]. We will first discuss possible number representations, (e.g., fixed-point or floating-point), then basic operations like adder and multiplier, and finally efficient implementation of more difficult operations such as square roots, and the computation of trigonometric functions using the CORDIC algorithm or MAC calls.
