Algorithms for polynomial computation over finite fields form a crucial domain in computational mathematics, with extensive applications ranging from cryptography and ...

This summer, battle lines were drawn over a simple math problem: 8 ÷ 2(2 + 2) = ? If you divide 8 by 2 first, you get 16, but if you multiply 2 by (2 + 2) first, you get 1. So, which answer is right?

The classical Multiply and Accumulate (MAC) architecture represents the best solution for the implementation of many general purpose algorithms. This structure is found in DSPs, and also in some ...
