Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In recent years, high speed and high precision computing is increasingly needed.
Hardware support for IEEE754 compliant quadruple precision arithmetic is expensive.
A computation time to perform double-double precision arithmetic which perform quadruple precision arithmetic by using two double precision floating point number
is 10 times larger than double precision arithmetic.
In this report, we propose a technique to enable high precision computing by
using multiple FP units and wide datapath for SIMD extensions.
We define an extended precision FP format which consist of a sign bit, 11-bit exponent, and 104-bit significand.
An extended FP number is stored in a 128-bit register.
An extended FP adder is designed by adding small hardware to two existing double precision FP adder,
and can calculate one extended precision ADD or two double-precision ADD.
We use a 128-bit datapath for SIMD extensions, then
we can easily treat a extended precision FP number without providing any new datapath.
