Sign detection in the Symmetric Residue Number System

Abstract

This paper is concerned with the algebraic sign detection of a number in the Symmetric Residue Number System, A new approach has been suggested which completely avoid the time consuming process of the Symmetric Mixed Radix Conversion (SMRC). An algorithm based on the above approach implementable in parallel for sign detection is also presented. The heriware representation of the above algorithm is shown. The time and hardware complexity required for the process have also bean computed.
