P-1788 members:
Since this motion has been tendered by Nate Hayes and seconded
by Vladik Kreinovich, the three-week discussion period will begin.
The discussion will continue until the end of Wednesday, October 7,
at which time we will either discuss an amended motion or vote on
the motion.
William: Can you please record this action in the minutes?
Juergen: Can you please place the motion and its status on the
P-1788 web site, consistent with how you have handled
past motions?
I have appended a copy of Nate's introductory email, and have attached
the motion (in PDF).
Best regards,
Baker

I submit the document "Exception Handling for Interval Arithmetic" as a formal motion (motion 8) to be voted upon. The document presents a general framework for exception handling. It uniformly accomodates all arithmetic and nonarithmetic exceptions that are relevant for interval arithmetic and its applications. It eliminates the need for separate global sticky flags, and integrates non-intervals (NaI), without introducing any overhead for users who don't make use of exceptions. The document is attached as a PDF (4 pages) to facilitate its reading. Thank you to Arnold Neumaier for his joint contributions in writing it. Sincerely, Nate Hayes
