Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Computer arithmetic has significantly enhanced the power of digital computers, while the rapid development of digital computing has presented new technology challenges to computer arithmetic, which has seen advances in its theory, analysis, modeling, regularity, and processing. With the tracks and reflection to traditional and emerging computational paradigms, the methodologies for the exploration, representation, and management of our data implied knowledges have been promoted. The influences extend to academia, industry, and defense applications, including quality improvement and risk minimization. This Special Issue invites submissions of research articles describing recent discoveries on all aspects related to computer arithmetic, including but is not restricted to the following topics:
- New arithmetic paradigms (algorithms, architectures, and implementations);
- Innovative number systems and their applications;
- Special function implementations;
- Test and validation, for arithmetic architectures and implementations;
- Floating-point units and algorithms, and their application in emerging domains;
- Low-power arithmetic units and processors;
- Arithmetic for FPGAs and reconfigurable logic;
- Computer arithmetic for approximate computing, or to enhance accuracy or reliability;
- Computer arithmetic for security and cryptography;
- Special arithmetic applications in the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, neural networks, machine/deep learning, big data analytics, signal processing, computer graphics, multimedia, computer vision, distributed and parallel computing, finance, etc.;
- Non-conventional computer arithmetic, and computer arithmetic for emerging technologies.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Informatics is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
