Exploiting the Performance of 32 bit Floating Point Arithmetic in Obtaining 64 bit
Recent versions of microprocessors exhibit performance characteristics for 32 bit floating point arithmetic (single precision) that is substantially higher than 64 bit floating point arithmetic (double precision). Examples include the Intel’s Pentium IV and M processors, AMD’s Opteron architectures and the IBM’s Cell processor. When working in single precision, floating point operations can be ...
متن کاملIEEE Standard 754 Floating-Point
There are several ways to represent real numbers on computers. Fixed point places a radix point somewhere in the middle of the digits, and is equivalent to using integers that represent portions of some unit. For example, one might represent 1/100ths of a unit; if you have four decimal digits, you could represent 10.82, or 00.01. Another approach is to use rationals, and represent every number ...

متن کامل64-bit versus 32-bit Virtual Machines for Java
The Java language is popular because of its platform independence, making it useful in a lot of technologies ranging from embedded devices to high-performance systems. The platform-independent property of Java, which is visible at the Java bytecode level, is only made possible thanks to the availability of a Virtual Machine (VM), which needs to be designed specifically for each underlying hardw...
