Abstract

Over the last two decades there has been considerable interest in the implementation of digital computer elements using hardware based on the residue number system. This paper considers implementing such systems with arrays of look-up tables placed in high density read-only memories. The type of system discussed is restricted to one in which the only operations are addition, subtraction, multiplication, and scaling by a predetermined constant. Special attention is given to the scaling algorithm, and two different scaling algorithms are developed.
