Validating microprocessor performance

Abstract:

Validating microprocessor instruction execution by receiving a floating-point exception selection, receiving a validation method selection, generating validation data according to the floating-point exception selection and the validation method selection by randomly generating a first tensor element value and randomly generating a second tensor element value according to the first tensor element value and the floating-point exception selection, and executing a floating-point computation according to the validation data.
