is a high performance computer system being developed
at the Naval Research Laboratory for radar, sonar, and

processing tasks efficiently, the SPE comprises
multiple functional units that execute different
processes in parallel. Due to the inherent parallelism
in signal processing tasks, horizontal microprograms
are used to control the functional units [references 5
and 6]. This report overviews the SPE, describes the
Signal Processing Arithmetic Unit (SPAU) in detail,
discusses ANIMIL --- the microprogramming language for
representing SPAU microprograms, and illustrates the
use of the ANIMIL translator with a simple
microprogram. Companion documents describe the SPAU
simulator program (reference 3) and the formal syntax
and semantics of the ANIMIL language (reference 4).",

implies that the spacing between consecutive numbers in

Only around simple rational numbers (e.g. 1/1, 2/3) is
the spacing of the order $ 2 {-16}. $ However the

certainly introduce a rounding error of the order $ 2
