BIDM.Asset.Abstract Computing square-roots have a substantially high result latency on the Cray MPP. We have implemented an efficient software routine on Cray MPP to compute the square-roots of a double-precision real vector. This program written in CAM assembler language runs about seven times faster than the currently available library routine. The worst case deviation of the computed values using v_sqrt from those computed using the standard library routine is about one least significant bit. META
