A logarithm is the power which a certain number is raised to get another number. Before calculators and various types of complex computers were invented it was difficult for scientists and ...

Mark Arnold is currently at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST) on leave of absence from the University of Wyoming. He is the author or co-author of more than a ...

LOGARITHMS, as anyone forced to use them at school will recall, can speed up the process of mathematical calculation dramatically. By representing numbers as logarithms (with the help of a slide-rule, ...

Logarithms and square root are non-elementary operations frequently used in digital signal processing. In this work, implementation and design of an IP-Core to compute square root and multibase ...

A logarithm is a mathematical operation that determines how many times a certain number, called the base, is multiplied by itself to reach another number. Because logarithms relate geometric ...

From a university spin-off company in the North of England comes a microprocessor that is claimed to be the first to operate directly on numbers that it holds in a logarithmic representation. The ...
