This paper is a comprehensive study of mathematics education in the Chosun Dynasty. The basis of this work relies on actual historical records from the period. As shown in the records, mathematics education during the Chosun Dynasty remained at the level of basic arithmetics. The arithmeticians of the Chosun Dynasty did not have an understanding of more complex mathematical thought. But the simple arithmetics of the Chosun Dynasty facilitated the building up of a unique merchant 'middle class.' So this paper examines the development of mathematics in the Chosun Dynasty through middle class. Although the Chosun Dynasty arithmetics occupy a significant part of mathematics history, this paper details why their thought did not evaluate more advanced mathematical theories.

Carry-save-adder(CSA) is one of the most effective operation cells in implementing an arithmetic hardware with high performace and small circuit area. An fundamental drawback of the existing CAS applications is that the applications are limited to the local parts of arithmetic circuit that are directly converted to additions. To resolve the limitation, we propose a set of new CSA transformation techniques: optimizing arithmetics with multiplexors, optimizing arithmetics in multiple designs, and optimizing arithmetics with multiplications. We then design a new CSA transformation algorithm which integrates the proposed techniques, so that we are able to utilize CSAs more globally. An extensive experimentation for practical designs are provided to show the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm over the conventional CSA techniques.

In this paper, we presented a method of constructing a multiplier and an inverse element generator over finite field GF(3**m). We proposed the multiplication method using a descending order arithmetics of mod F(X) to perform the multiplication and mod F(X) arithmetics at the same time. The proposed multiplier is composed of following parts. 1) multiplication part, 2) data assortment generation part and 5) multiplication processing part. Also the inverse element generator is constructed with following parts. 1) multiplier, 2) group of output registers Rs, 3) multiplication and cube selection gate Gl, 4) Ri term sequential selection part. 5) cube processing part and 6) descending order mod F(X) generation part. Especially, the proposed multiplier and inverse element generator give regularity, expansibility and modularity of circuit design.

The use of fuzzy number over interval of confidence instead of possibilitic consideration for solving fuzzy equation is proposed. This approach of solving fuzzy equation by interval arithmetic and ${\alpha}$-cuts has a considerable advantage. Through theoretical analysis, an illustrative example and computational results, we show that the proposed approach is more general and straight-forword.

In this article we survey the sequences and the series in Mooksajipsanbup(默思集算法) which is the seventeenth century mathematics book of Chosun dynasty. First, we classify them into three categories: arithmetics, geometric, and general sequences (series). And then we explore the old methods to find the values of terms and the sum of terms.

The resonance width may be directly determined by solving an eigenvalue equation for width operator which is derived in this work based on the method of complex scaling transformation. The width operator approach is advantageous to the conventional rotating coordinate method in twofold; 1) calculation can be done in real arithmetics and, 2) so-called θ-trajectory is not required for determining the resonance widths. Application to one- and two-dimensional model problems can be easily implemented.

In this paper, we Implement a new arithmetic computation for MPEG audio data to overcome the limitations of real number processing in the fixed-point arithmetics, such as: overheads in processing time and power consumption. We aims at efficiently dealing with real numbers by extending the fixed-point arithmetic manipulation for floating-point numbers in MPEG audio data, and implementing the DSP libraries to support the manipulation and computation of real numbers with the fixed-point resources.

In this paper, we present a new extended Jacobi method for computing eigenvalues and eigenvectors of Hermitian matrices which does not use any complex arithmetics. This method can be readily applied to skew-Hermitian and real skew-symmetric matrices as well. An example illustrating its computational efficiency is given.

Even though there are lots of learning theory and learning Instruments today, it is still difficult to teach the children individually taking their learning ability into consideration. In this case lower level children may be discouraged and cannot catch up the next course. The purpose of this paper is to design and develop webb-based courseware on arithmetics for the disabled children and apply the program to the class field. This program is very useful for the left-behind children because it enables the repetitive and visible learning.

HPM(History and Pedagogy of Mathematics) become an important issue to us now. Study on old Korean mathematics books were made recently. We study mathematics books in Kyujanggak in this article. Horng Wann-Sheng 洪萬生, an math. historian and a member of editorial board of Historia Mathematica, visited Kyujanggak, the royal library of Joseon Dynasty. After his visit, he published a paper, "The first visit to mathematics books in Kyujanggak 奎章閣收藏算書初訪"(2008 Kyujanggak 32, p. 283-293). In his paper, he also raised several research problems on the history of Korean mathematics. In this paper, we analyze his paper "The first visit to mathematics books in Kyujanggak" and give some answers to those raised problems on Korean mathematics. Also we correct some misunderstanding of Horng on some facts. Especially, we make it clear that the author of SinJungSanSul(New Arithmetics 新訂算術) was not Lee Sang-Seol(李相卨), whom Horng considered as the author, but Lee Gyo-Seung(李敎承) through the correct translation of its preface and an article about its copyright lawsuit. And we added some pathways how Chinese mathematics books were imported by Joseon. We introduce the case of Hong Dae-Yong(洪大容) in detail.
