abstract = "This article presents a multiple-precision binary
floating-point library, written in the ISO C language,
and based on the GNU MP library. Its particularity is
to extend to arbitrary-precision, ideas from the IEEE
754 standard, by providing correct rounding and
exceptions. We demonstrate how these strong semantics
are achieved---with no significant slowdown with
respect to other arbitrary-precision tools---and
discuss a few applications where such a library can be
useful.",
