摘要
In this paper we present CESTAC, a method to control round-off errors in floating-point scientific computation, based on stochastic arithmetic. The real time use of this method suffers from bottleneck software calculation. This paper gives a hardware alternative that would significantly accelerate the computation. The proposed hardware architecture has two parts a standard floating-point unit (FPU) and a unit dedicated to the control of round-off errors.
