The Logarithmic Number System (LNS) is an alternative to IEEE-754 standard floating-point arithmetic. LNS multiply, divide and square root are easier than IEEE-754 and naturally ...
Despite the progress of the last decades in electronic design automation, arithmetic circuits have always received way less attention than other classes of digital circuits. Logic...
Inaccurate or ambiguous expressions in queries lead to poor results in information retrieval. We assume that iterative user feedback can improve the quality of queries. To this end...

This work evaluates a few search strategies for Arabic monolingual and cross-lingual retrieval, using the TREC Arabic corpus as the test-bed. The release by NIST in 2001 of an Ara...
Floating-point Sparse Matrix-Vector Multiplication (SpMXV) is a key computational kernel in scientific and engineering applications. The poor data locality of sparse matrices sig...
