A survey of Exact arithmetic implementations

TL;DR: A survey of practical systems for exact arithmetic can be found in this article, where the authors describe some of the methods used in their implementation, and suggest reasons for the performance differences displayed by the competing systems at this years CCA Exact Arithmetic Competition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arbitrary precision real arithmetic: design and algorithms

TL;DR: For each algorithm, the resulting sequence is a valid representation of the exact real result of therational, algebraic or transcendental function according to the sequences representing these arguments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficient exact computation of iterated maps

TL;DR: It is found that bottom-up propagation of error terms is likely to be preferable in involved computations, and this will allow for exact real computations that run within some constant factor of the time for the corresponding floating point computation when the computation is stable.

The constructive reals as a Java library

TL;DR: This paper described an implementation of the computable (or constructive) real numbers as a pure Java library, and demonstrated that some second-order functions on the reals can be implemented with sufficient performance to be useful.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Effective continued fractions

TL;DR: This work forms the basis of a proof that there is an effective representation of the computable reals as continued fractions and demonstrates that the basic arithmetic operations are computable using this representation.

The iRRAM: Exact Arithmetic in C++

TL;DR: The iRRAM as mentioned in this paper is a very efficient C++ package for error-free real arithmetic based on the concept of Real-RAM, which can be used for arithmetic over trigonometric functions and linear algebra even with sparse matrices.
Journal ArticleDOI

A New Representation for Exact Real Numbers

TL;DR: It is shown that there is a canonical choice of four sign matrices which are generated by rotation of S1 by π/4, and the ordinary signed digit representation of real numbers in a given base induces a canonicalchoice of digit matrices.

Computability and complexity in analysis : 4th International Workshop, CCA 2000, Swansea, UK, September 17-19, 2000 : selected papers

TL;DR: Computability and complexity in analysis of real numbers are discussed in this paper, where the authors present a survey of real number implementations over p-Adic Fields and define a generic root operation for exact real arithmetic.
