A Regular Layout for Parallel Adders

TLDR
It is shown that addition of n-bit binary numbers can be performed on a chip with a regular layout in time proportional to log n and with area proportional to n.
Abstract
With VLSI architecture, the chip area and design regularity represent a better measure of cost than the conventional gate count. We show that addition of n-bit binary numbers can be performed on a chip with a regular layout in time proportional to log n and with area proportional to n.

A fast radix-4 division algorithm and its architecture

TL;DR: The architecture presented for the proposed algorithm is faster than previously proposed radix-4 dividers, which require at least four digits of the partial remainder to be observed to determine quotient digits.

A VLSI modulo m multiplier

TL;DR: The modular multiplier has been evaluated asymptotically, according to the VLSI complexity theory, and it turned out to be an optimal design.

On the Design of Fast IEEE Floating-point Adders (Extended Abstract)

TL;DR: The IEEE floating-point adder (FP-adder) as mentioned in this paper achieves a low latency by combining various optimization techniques such as a non-standard separation into two paths, a simple rounding algorithm, unifying rounding cases for addition and subtraction, sign-magnitude computation of a difference based on one's complement subtraction and compound adders.

Optimized synthesis of sum-of-products

TL;DR: In this latest approach to datapath synthesis from RTL, datapaths are extracted into largest possible sum-of-product (SOP) blocks, thus making extensive use of carry-save intermediate results and reducing the number of expensive carry-propagations to a minimum.
