Arithmetic and Logic in Computer Systems

von Mi Lu
Arithmetic and Logic in Computer Systems provides a useful guide toa fundamental subject of computer science and engineering. Algorithms for performing operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in digital computer systems arepresented, with the goal of explaining the concepts behind thealgorithms, rather than addressing any direct applications. Alternative methods are examined, and explanations are supplied ofthe fundamental materials and reasoning behind theories andexamples.
No other current books deal with this subject, and the author is aleading authority in the field of computer arithmetic. The textintroduces the Conventional Radix Number System and theSigned-Digit Number System, as well as Residue Number System andLogarithmic Number System. This book serves as an essential, up-to-date guide for students of electrical engineering andcomputer and mathematical sciences, as well as practicing engineersand computer scientists involved in the design, application, anddevelopment of computer arithmetic units.
