comp.arch.arithmetic

  Implementing arithmetic on computers/digital systems.

  A forum for the discussion of implementing arithmetic functions in 
  digital computers (and other digital systems).  There are many other 
  newsgroups which share a peripheral interest with this topic, but none 
  which deals precisely with the topic of implementing arithmetic (and 
  logical) functions on digital systems.
  
  comp.arch.arithmetic deals with the topic of computer arithmetic at
  several different levels, from the circuit level (how to build a faster
  multiplier, for example) to the algorithmic level.  Both hardware and
  software implementations of arithmetic are approprate.  Any problem
  involving arithmetic or logical calculations is fair game for discussion,
  whether it be ALU design, digital signal processing, cryptography,
  minimization of logic equations, or anything else.  This newsgroup is
  also for the discussion of various protocols and standards relating to
  computer arithmetic, such as IEEE Standard 754.  In short, any topic
  relevant to computer arithmetic/logic is acceptable in this newsgroup.
  
  comp.arch.arithmetic serves all of those with an interest in  computer 
  arithmetic, from undergraduates wondering what two's complement  numbers 
  are, to seasoned researchers discussing the latest developments of the 
  field.  No one should be made to feel unwelcome, simply due to a lack of 
  experience or knowledge of the topics covered.  An FAQ is also avalible 
  for this group.
  
  Generally, any post relating to computer arithmetic or logic is considered 
  acceptable.  Posts which are not relevant to the topic at hand, or posts 
  which are excessively hostile, are considered unacceptable.  Constructive 
  criticism of another's ideas/work are OK, flames are not.  As comp.arch.
  arithmetic is an UNMODERATED newsgroup, readers are expected to exercise
  their own good judgment when posting.  It is anticipated that the vast
  majority of posters will be professional in their behavior, so moderation
  is not necessary.
