Abstract
A method is provided that includes performing, by a processor in response to a floating point multiply instruction, multiplication of floating point numbers, wherein determination of values of implied bits of leading bit encoded mantissas of the floating point numbers is performed in parallel with multiplication of the encoded mantissas, and storing, by the processor, a result of the floating point multiply instruction in a storage location indicated by the floating point multiply instruction.
