Abstract
Techniques facilitating binary floating-point multiply and scale operation for compute-intensive numerical applications and apparatuses are provided. An embodiment relates to a system that can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise a receiver component that receives an instruction to perform a multiply and scale operation of the first floating point operand value, the second floating point operand value, and the integer operand value, wherein the multiplication component obtains the floating-point product in response to the instruction to perform the multiply and scale operation. The multiplication can be performed as a single instruction.
