Being new to the arithmatic side of things, I have always wanted to read a detailed document on the evolution of floating point ALU architectures, starting with what Seymour Cray did when he was at Control Data. This field is facinating to me because it combines high speed circuit design with innovative algorithms. The same could be said about high performance graphics accellerators.
