Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have studied methods for making a floating-point arithmetic unit (FPU) array high-performance and highly-dependable by contriving data representation in it. We have proposed methods for constructing concurrently error-detectable FPUs by parity prediction or partial duplication or residue checking, and a method for performing quasi-quadruple precision arithmetic by coupling two double precision floating-point fused multiply-adders. We also proposed a synthesis method of an array of processing elements consisting of an FPU and memory from a program comprising multiple loop structure and matrix operations. In addition, we have developed a simulator of an FPU array.
