Square a Multi-Digit Number on 8 Processors in a Parallel Computational Model by Andrii Tereshchenko

“…The paper presents such a modification of the implementation, which has a small number of addition and subtraction operations in linear combinations. An algorithm based on the proposed modification is presented, which shows how a 4-digit number with a heterogeneous structure can be split into a 2-digit number and a 4-digit number with a simpler structure due to repetition. …”
