Arithmetic and Logic in Computer Systems provides a useful guide to a
fundamental subject of computer science and engineering.


Algorithms for performing operations like addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and division in digital computer systems are presented, with
the goal of explaining the concepts behind the algorithms, rather than
addressing any direct applications. Alternative methods are examined, and
explanations are supplied of the fundamental materials and reasoning behind
theories and examples.


No other current books deal with this subject, and the author is a leading
authority in the field of computer arithmetic. The text introduces the
Conventional Radix Number System and the Signed-Digit Number System, as well
as Residue Number System and Logarithmic Number System.


This book serves as an essential, up-to-date guide for students of electrical
engineering and computer and mathematical sciences, as well as practicing
engineers and computer scientists involved in the design, application, and
development of computer arithmetic units.
