Abstract: This EAE patch was specifically designed for the KES/E and

uses Mode B instructions. Both 3 and 4 word versions of the multiply and

divide routines are included. The normalize routine has also been

rewritten. Total space available is 78 words (10 digit version). Multiply

time is reduced by a factor of 18.5 (4.5 times faster than the regular EAE

patch) with the results rounded off instead of being truncated. A I-bit

normalization is performed 2-3 times faster. Programmers with KE8-I or

KE12 hardward should request DECUS NO. FOCAL8-283.
