On-line CORDIC algorithms

TL;DR: A number of new algorithms to make an online CORDIC implementation are introduced and it is estimated that an implementation of the proposed algorithm is six to seven times as fast as the traditional CORDic approach for Given's rotation, and seven to eight times asfast for SVD computation.
