Today a company called Bounded Floating Point announced a “breakthrough patent in processor design, which allows representation of real numbers accurate to the last digit for the first time in ...

I am working on floating point representation. I have to write a program that will take a decimal, convert to binary, normalize it, and print out the floating point representation. I want to write ...

Floating-point arithmetic is a cornerstone of modern computational science, providing an efficient means to approximate real numbers within a finite precision framework. Its ubiquity across scientific ...

Routines for the PIC16/17 families are provided in a modified IEEE 754 32-bit format together with versions in 24-bit reduced format. Although fixed point arithmetic can usually be employed in many ...

Most AI chips and hardware accelerators that power machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) applications include floating-point units (FPUs). Algorithms used in neural networks today are often ...

Although something that’s taken for granted these days, the ability to perform floating-point operations in hardware was, for the longest time, something reserved for people with big wallets. This ...
