Abstract
In this paper, we outline the design and development of an area optimized Floating-Point Unit (FPU) in accordance with the IEEE 754-2008 standard. This FPU acts as a coprocessor for RISC-V ISA based VEGA processor. The FPU supports both in-order and out-of-order execution of 58 RISC-V floating-point instructions with partial pipelining.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.

Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
