Draft:Coordinated Fixed-Point Domain Modular Arithmetic: Introduction into Cozy Math (Co-FPD-MA)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Coordinated Fixed-Point Domain Modular Arithmetic (Co-FPD-MA)

[edit]

Coordinated Fixed-Point Domain Modular Arithmetic (Co-FPD-MA) is a computational framework developed by researcher Christopher Hill in 2025. It builds upon traditional Modular arithmetic by incorporating fixed-point quantization, segmented modular logic, and coordinated arithmetic scheduling. The system includes two subvariants: Modular Segmentation Arithmetic (MSA) and Modular Segmented Multi-Precision Arithmetic (MSMPA). Together, they form a hardware-friendly deterministic arithmetic system nicknamed Cozy Math.

Overview

[edit]

Co-FPD-MA offers a bounded, deterministic alternative to floating-point math for real-time computing. The system is optimized for applications in GPU computing, cryptography, artificial intelligence, augmented reality (AR), and kernel module design. It is particularly well-suited for devices requiring precision with limited floating-point units.

Mathematical Definitions

Where:

  • is the fixed-point quantum
  • is the modulus
  • is a dependency coordination function

Modular Segmentation Arithmetic (MSA)

[edit]

MSA represents an integer in segmented form:

Where: , and is the segment base.

Modular Segmented Multi-Precision Arithmetic (MSMPA)

[edit]

This enables multi-word arithmetic with carry and parallel coordination.

Sample C Implementation

[edit]
uint32_t co_fpd_ma(uint32_t a, uint32_t b, uint32_t Q, uint32_t M) {
    uint32_t sum = a + b;
    uint32_t quantized = (sum / Q) * Q;
    return quantized % M;
}

Assembly Pseudocode (x86-64)

[edit]
; Inputs: a in rax, b in rbx, Q in rcx, M in rdx
add     rax, rbx          ; a + b
div     rcx               ; divide by Q
mul     rcx               ; re-quantize
div     rdx               ; mod M

Applications

Historical Context

[edit]

Co-FPD-MA was introduced in early 2025 by Christopher Hill and released under a customized MIT License with an optional moral clause, encouraging voluntary profit-sharing to support continued research.
