1) Why "the number of multiplicand-multiples reduced from n to ABOUT 2n/3" ? How is this being done ?
2) What does it actually mean by "applying this principle about log(base = 3/2) of n times, the number can only be reduced to 2" ?
3) Why the overall delay is O(log n) ? Why does fast carry adder has O(log n) delay ?
4) Why 2-bit Booth recoding only reduce height of wallace tree by one or two level ? What about multiplier bit-pair encoding ?
5) Why does the author suggest to use larger counters instead of full adders ? To speed up the number of intermediate stages ?
6) Why is Wallace Tree circuit irregular in terms of layout and routing ?
7) How is a 4-2 adder helping to increase circuit regularity ?
