Some results about on-line computation of functions
Jean Duprat, Y. Herreros, Jean‐Michel Muller · 2003
Complexity results that allow the exact determination or bounding of the online delay of most common arithmetic and elementary functions are presented. These results show that many classical online operators presented in the literature are optimal in delay (but not necessarily in period). The authors propose a way to conserve, for large numbers of manipulations, the main advantage of online arithmetic (the capability of digit-level pipelining) by presenting sparse online arithmetic.>
