US Patent 11074100 Arithmetic and logical operations in a multi-user network

Systems, apparatuses, and methods related to arithmetic and logical operations in a multi-user network are described. An agent may be provisioned with a pool of shared computing resources that includes circuitry to perform operations on data (e.g., one or more posit bit strings) in a multi-user network. The circuitry can perform operations on data to convert the data between one or more formats, such as floating-point and/or universal number (e.g., posit) formats, and can further perform arithmetic and/or logical operations on the converted data. The agent may receive a parameter corresponding to performance of an arithmetic operation and/or a logical operation using one or more posit bit strings and cause performance of the arithmetic operation and/or the logical operation using the one or more posit bit strings.
