Correctly-rounded evaluation of a function: why, how, and at what cost?

Abstract

The goal of this paper is to convince the reader that a future standard for floating-point arithmetic should require the availability of a correctly-rounded version of a well-chosen core set of elementary functions. We discuss the interest and feasibility of this requirement. We also give answers to common objections we have received over the last 10 years.
