Abstract :
A simple recursion based on Homer´s rule for evaluating polynomials is used to form a systolic array architecture. This recursion is modified to lead to an architecture which takes advantage of simplified arithmetic. The advantage of this proposal is fast execution and relative ease of implementation in silicon.
