	Arithmetic logic unit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The arithmetic logic unit/arithmetic-logic unit (ALU) of a computer's CPU is a part of the execution unit, a core component of all CPUs.
		ALUs are capable of calculating the results of a wide variety of basic arithmetical computations.
		The inputs to the ALU are the data to be operated on (called operands) and a code from the control unit indicating which operation to perform.

	Multiplication ALU - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In digital design, a multiplier or multiplication ALU is a hardware circuit dedicated to multiplying two binary values.
		A variety of computer arithmetic techniques can be used to implement a digital multiplier.
		This process is similar to the method taught to primary schoolchildren for conducting long multiplication on base-10 integers, but has been modified here for application to a base-2 (binary) numeral system.

	Wikipedia: Arithmetic and logical unit
		An arithmetic and logical unit (ALU) is one of the core components of all central processing units.
		The most common available operations are the integer arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication, the bitwise logic operations of AND, NOT, OR, and XOR, and various shift operations.
		The ALU takes as inputs the data to be operated on and a code from the control unit indicating which operation to perform, and for output provides the result of the computation.

	Ram/Project2
		The result of the ALU is then stored back in the memory location pointed by address B by asserting the WE signal High along with the input clock signal.
		The output from the ALU is selected by a 4:1 multiplexer which selects one of the four outputs of the ALU namely MSB, LSB (both of multiplication operation), Adder/subtractor output and the logical output.
		In the memory a 2:1 multiplexer is used to select between the ALU output and the previous stored value as the new value to be written to the memory bit.

	History of computing hardware - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Napier noted that multiplication and division of numbers can be performed by addition and subtraction, respectively, of logarithms of those numbers.
		The engineers in the Apollo program to send a man to the moon made many of their calculations on slide rules, which were accurate to 3 or 4 significant figures.
		While producing the first logarithmic tables Napier needed to perform many multiplications and it was at this point that he designed Napier's bones.

		We start by first going from the 1-bit ALU that we had designed in the last class to a 32 bit ALU.
		Logical Shifts are typically implemented outside the ALU using something called a Barrel Shifter (for speed reasons).
		Multiplication can basically be looked upon as a repeated addition operation.

	ALU
		The line from the right is the control line from the control unit of the CPU to the ALU that the add operation is either an add or subtract.
		Multiplication circuits are typically built of adders, shifters.
		As we perform multiplication by hand, we "shift" the multiplicand to the left to create our diagonal array of summands.

	22C:40 Notes, Chapter 9
		Because of the slow speed of hardware multiplication on most computers, compiler writers have long been urged to avoid using multiply instructions whenever a short sequence of shift and add instructions could be used to accomplish the same thing.
		Multiplication by 11 takes three instructions, but there are also three instruction sequences to multiply by all larger integers up to more than 35.
		The most obvious way to handle signed multiplication and division is to remember the signs of all the operands, then take the absolute value, and finally compute the proper sign for the result and, if this is negative, complement the appropriate register.

	22C:60 Notes, Chapter 9
		Instead, most computers that have multiply hardware do multiplication using the same arithmetic-logic unit as they use for addition, cycling the data through the arithmetic-logic unit as many times as is required to compute the product.
		Multiplication by 11 takes three instructions, but there are also three instruction sequences to multiply by all larger integers up to 38 and for many above that.
		The most obvious way to handle signed multiplication and division is to remember the signs of all the operands and then take their absolute values beforehand, and then fix the signs afterwards.

		The implementation I (and Hennessy and Patterson) gave is too simple, in that an additional one bit register for the carry out of the ALU is needed.
		What is involved is that after the addition step (and before the shift), if there is a carry out it must be saved and shifted into the product register when the shift carried out.
		If the multiplicand is negative you have to use sign extension when you shift the product register; if the multiplier is negative you have to apply a correction at the end.

	Multiplication in VHDL and MIPS assembly
		The 32-bit ALU will need to have three operations: addition, subtraction, and no-op, which just passes the previous upper 32-bits of the product through the ALU unchanged.
		The right input of the ALU should be the multiplicand and the left input should be the upper 32-bits of the product register.
		The control unit should be implemented as a finite state machine with outputs that control the ALU and product register depending on the current state.

		The simplistic view (as shown in the Simplified View of CPU Architecture page) implies that the instruction decoder determines what instruction should be performed by the ALU and then sends on control signals to the ALU, as appropriate.
		It turns out that bit shifting allows vary efficient multiplication and division, provided we are multiplying or dividing by 2 or a multiple of 2.
		If this bit was a 0, then you divided exactly by a two or a multiple of two (if shifting more than one position).
