Abstract
A fast parallel arithmetic using a Cellular Automaton (CA) environment is presented. The Redundant Binary (RB) number representation, first studied for optical computing, is used in order to perform a carry-free parallel addition or algebraic sum of arbitrary large numbers in constant time.
