Abstract

Apparatuses, methods, computer readable media, and systems are disclosed in which a floating point processing instruction is decoded to generate control signals to trigger a floating point processing operation. In response to the control signals, the floating point processing operation is performed, comprising: performing processing that yields more than two floating point values; and performing, for each of the more than two floating point values: a determination of a shift value for a significand of that floating point value by subtracting an exponent value for that floating point value from a predetermined constant anchor value determined based on a maximum calculable product exponent for a product of the more than two floating point operands, and a shift of the significand by the shift value determined for that floating point value.
