This should probably be tagged as a stub since it doesn't contain the actual algorithm nor much of a discussion past the big O complexity. I'd do it, but I don't know the algorithm. Lavid 19:46, 25 February 2007 (UTC) lavid[reply]

Actually, I do not think anyone has ever written down the full algorithm. The paper only proves that such an algorithm exists. I do not think we can provide an explanation of the technique here without writing an essay as complex as Coppersmith and Winograd's paper. Publishing a short introduction here and a link to the paper is probably the best we can do. 192.167.206.227 14:55, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is this the same as the Winograd algorithm for matrix multiplication? I'm reading about Winograd algorithm in one book right now, and it has quite concise explanation of how the algorithm works. I could give this explanation here, but for some reason I'm not quite sure if it is the same thing. The book is available on Internet (here's the link), however it might not be of much use to you since it's in Serbian :P -- Obradović Goran (talk 00:19, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
