New Voltage Differencing Differential Input Buffered Amplifier (VD-DIBA) based lossless grounded and floating inductance simulation circuits have been proposed. The proposed grounded simulated inductance circuit employs a single VD-DIBA, one floating resistance and one grounded capacitor. The floating simulated inductance (FI) circuits employ two VD-DIBAs with two passive components (one floati...

It is proposed to add to the C++ standard optional floating-point typedefs having specified widths. The optional typedefs include float16_t, float32_t, float64_t, float128_t, their corresponding least and fast types, and the corresponding maximumwidth type. These are to conform with the corresponding specifications of binary16, binary32, binary64, and binary128 in IEEE_ floating-point format. T...

We address the single source shortest path planning problem (SSSP) in the case of floating point edge weights. We show how any integer based Dijkstra solution that relies on a monotone integer priority queue to create a full ordering over path lengths in order to solve integer SSSP can be used as an oracle to solve floating point SSSP with positive edge weights (floating point P-SSSP). Floating...

background: floating knee, referred to as ipsilateral fractures of the femur and tibia, is usually associated with several complications and mortality. this study was designed to present our experience with treatment of this injury throughout; age, sex, mechanism of injury, associated injuries, method and results of treatment, and complications of floating knee are discussed. materials and meth...

This paper investigates the induced stresses in circular single deck roofs floating on seismically excited storage tanks. Equations of motion are derived using variational principle. Response of deck floating roofs is evaluated for two different classes of ground motions; near-source and long-period far-field records. Besides time histories and frequency contents for a specific tank, peak value...

Floating-point computations are usually performed with fixed precision: the machine used may have “single” or “double” precision floating-point hardware, or on small machines fixed-precision floating-point operations may be implemented by software or firmware. Most high-level languages support only a small number of floating-point precisions, and those which support an arbitrary number usually ...

Due to technological advances, it has become possible to implement floating-point cores on FPGAs in an effort to provide hardware acceleration for the myriad applications that require high performance floating-point arithmetic. However, in order to achieve a high clock rate, these floating-point cores must be deeply pipelined. Due to this deep pipelining and the complexity of floating-point ari...
