  • Patent number: 8892619
    Abstract: A floating-point fused multiply-add (FMA) unit embodied in an integrated circuit includes a multiplier circuit cascaded with an adder circuit to produce a result A*C+B. To decrease latency, the FMA includes accumulation bypass circuits forwarding an unrounded result of the adder to inputs of the close path and the far path circuits of the adder, and forwarding an exponent result in carry save format to an input of the exponent difference circuit. Also included in the FMA is a multiply-add bypass circuit forwarding the unrounded result to the inputs of the multiplier circuit. The adder circuit includes an exponent difference circuit implemented in parallel with the multiplier circuit; a close path circuit implemented after the exponent difference circuit; and a far path circuit implemented after the exponent difference circuit.

  • Patent number: 7957723
    Abstract: Sharing information feed data via a network involves forming a token describing the information feed data. The token is received at a first data processing arrangement via the network. The token is processed at the first data processing arrangement to determine the information feed data. Access to the information feed data is provided at the first data processing arrangement based on processing of the token.

  • Publication number: 20070078857
    Abstract: A method and a mobile terminal executing the method for browsing available information feeds on a limited display area via sequential views. Items of a certain feed are first listed by utilizing representative identifiers. The user of the terminal device may through swift, 1-click type actions then inspect the descriptions of preferred items one at a time before selecting the item to be fully accessed.
