Apple Posted Special Applications of 64-bit Arithmetic: Acceleration on the Apple G5

All you want to know about 64-bit arithmetic and then some, probably, Special Applications of 64-bit Arithmetic: Acceleration on the Apple G5 by S. Noble and J. Papadopoulos is now posted on Apple's SciTech Web page. This paper is intended to answer a collected set of past inquiries in regard to 64-bit arithmetic, and to demonstrate how large arrays of 64-bit entities can be handled. In particular, computational number theory realizes tremendous advantages in the 64-bit world. The emphasis of this particular tome is algebra as opposed to 64-bit memory issues. [Bill Fox]
