  • Patent number: 8880577
    Abstract: The present invention provides a modulo operation method. The modulo operation method, in a case where the square of a divisor N is greater than or equal to a dividend C, includes: determining the number of computation stages n satisfying 2n<N?2n+1; performing an initialization operation by initializing a constant a to the smallest integer greater than or equal to half of N; performing a first operation by subtracting, when C is greater than or equal to N·a (product of N and a), the value of C by the value of N·a; and performing a second operation by assigning the smallest integer greater than or equal to half of a to the value of a, wherein the value of C is output as the result of modulo operation after the first operation and the second operation are repeated n times. In the first operation, when C is less than N·a, the value of C is unchanged.
