Computer Benchmarks (Advances in Parallel Computing) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

The performance of a computer is a complicated issue and a function of many interrelated quantities. These quantities include: the application, the language, the implementation, the compiler, the architecture and the hardware characteristics. The usual method to evaluate the performance is to compose a benchmark of programs. This book presents an overview on benchmarking. Over 20 experts contributed papers on five topics concerning benchmarking advanced scientific computer systems: taxonomy and performance metrics, well-known standard and application benchmarks, compiler benchmarks for parallel computers, and benchmarks for database systems.
