“…In case r is not a multiple of 8, optimal solutions are also obtained, composed mainly of radix-2 8 algorithm with at most one instance of radix-2 1 , 2 2 or 2 5 algorithms, depending on the remainder of r by 8 division. 8 A -T 0 0 4 0 3 40 3 40 A -AT 5 0 0 8 0 7 80 16 T 0 3 0 1 5 404 5 80 A -AT 3 0 0 16 0 15 160 32 AT 4 A -T: all the metric span A, A 5 T, A 4 T, A 3 T, A 2 T, AT, AT 2 , AT 3 , AT 4 , AT 5 , T. To A and T metrics correspond respectively the minimal values Mux min and Del min that serve as reference for the optimization process. 5 2 25 2 8 3 40 The new results are so interesting that we are encouraged to pursue further the optimization process using higher basic sub-radices (s>8) to reduce the total delay (Del T ) of the multiplier.…”
