On-line arithmetic modules were proposed as a way to explore parallelism in arithmetic operations at digit level. Using always serial operators that receive inputs and compute the outputs from most-significant to least-significant digits, online arithmetic makes it possible to overlap all arithmetic operations and have a pipelined structure. On-line division...
Networks of on-line modules for Digital Signal Processing (DSP) applications have been designed and analyzed in many papers. Various arguments have been made for on-line arithmetic over other bit-serial and parallel approaches. However, the majority, if not all of the on-line network implementations presented throughout the literature do not take...
