This summer, battle lines were drawn over a simple math problem: 8 ÷ 2(2 + 2) = ? If you divide 8 by 2 first, you get 16, but if you multiply 2 by (2 + 2) first, you get 1. So, which answer is right?

Abstract: Multiplication is at the core of many data processing tasks and saving power at the multiplication level can significantly impact the lifetime of a wireless sensor network. This paper ...

Matrix multiplication is expensive O(n^3) operations! But what if we could verify the result without doing the full computation? I implemented Freivalds' algorithm in C to probabilistically verify ...

Researchers at MIT's Computer Science & Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) have open-sourced Multiply-ADDitioN-lESS (MADDNESS), an algorithm that speeds up machine learning using approximate matrix ...

What do encrypted messages, recognizing speech commands and running simulations to predict the weather have in common? They all rely on matrix multiplication for accurate calculations. DeepMind, an ...

This project provides a low-level implementation of the Matrix Multiplication algorithm in MIPS Assembly Language. The program is designed to run on MIPS simulators (such as MARS or SPIM) and ...

A new way to teach elementary school students multiplication is causing some controversy — but it may be easier than the method you probably learned in school. You probably learned multiplication ...

The common-core math standards require that students learn the standard algorithm for multi-digit adding and subtracting—you know, the process in which you line the numbers up vertically to add or ...

Four thousand years ago, the Babylonians invented multiplication. Last month, mathematicians perfected it. On March 18, two researchers described the fastest method ever discovered for multiplying two ...
