Binary coded decimal correction apparatus for use in an arithmetic unit of a data processing unit

TLDR
In this paper, a binary arithmetic logic unit can be corrected to provide a binary coded decimal result by use of correction logic which is responsive to the result produced by the BALU, the type of operation being performed, and whether the binary ALU produced a carry as a result of its arithmetic operation on such operands.
Abstract
Binary coded decimal operands may be operated on by use of a binary arithmetic logic unit and the result corrected to provide a binary coded decimal result by use of correction logic which is responsive to the result produced by the binary arithmetic logic unit, the type of operation being performed and whether the binary arithmetic logic unit produced a carry as a result of its arithmetic operation on such operands.

Fast BCD/binary adder

TL;DR: In this paper, a fast BCD/Binary Adder is proposed for selectively performing either binary or BCD arithmetic operations using an approach in which, for BCD addition, an appropriate correction value is always caused to be added to one of the input operands and an appropriate corrected value conditionally subtracted from the result where required to give a proper BCD result.
