I invite all the scientists who feel qualified and interested in CORDIC field

to discuss and contribute the paper

40-th Anniversary of Volder Algorithm (CORDIC Technique)

and submit it together to ARITHM13 - Worldwide Symposium on Computer Arithmetic.

Exactly 40 years ago - in the 1956 - the first Volder's publication, describing

CORDIC algorithm "Binary computation algorithm for coordinate rotation and function generation " , Report IAR-I 14S

Aeroelectronic group, June, 1956 Convair was published.

Until now CORDIC technique is one of the most effective method of solving

many computational problems. Since 1956, when this method was firstly

suggested, about 1000 publications were issued in more than 20 countries,

including approximately 150 Phd theses. The list of some publications in

CORDIC field is in:

http://devil.ece.utexas.edu/cordic.html

All the investigations related to CORDIC method could be divided into the following

groups:

- theory of properly CORDIC (convergence:conditions and domain, error analysis,

fixed and floating point representation, using of

nonbinary number representation, unification of

algorithms, methods of acceleration,comparing with

other methodes)

- expandings of CORDIC possibilities ( new kinds of functions of one and two va-

riables, functions of functions, three and four-di-

mension coordinate transforms, solving linear sys-

tems equations, eigenvalue and singular value prob-

lems)

- implementation and application of CORDIC (standard and nonstandard CORDIC ar-

chitectures: on-line, pipeline, matrix, ROM-based,

VLSI and ULSI, based on CORDIC, coprocessors, cal-

culators, DSP processors, display processors,

robotic processors).

Please, send you proposals, related to this draft and choose the part of this

paper you want to describe.
