    摘要: Embodiments of an apparatus are disclosed for performing arithmetic operations on provided operands. The apparatus may include a fetch unit, and an arithmetic logic unit (ALU). The fetch unit may be configured to retrieve two operands responsive to receiving an instruction, wherein the operands include binary-coded decimal values. The ALU may be configured to scale a value of each of the operands, and then compress the scaled values of the operands. The compressed values of the operands may include fewer data bits than the corresponding scaled values. The ALU may be further configured to estimate a portion of a result of the operation dependent upon the compressed values of the operands.

    摘要: Embodiments of a processor are disclosed for performing arithmetic operations on a machine independent number format. The processor may include a floating point unit, and a number unit. The number format may include a sign/exponent block, a length block, and multiple mantissa digits. The number unit may be configured to perform an operation on two operands by converting the digit format of each mantissa digit of each operand, to perform the operation using the converted mantissa digits, and then to convert each mantissa digit of the result of the operation back into the original digit format.
