OldenAndJOldenBenchmarksThese are a set of benchmarks originally developed for a parallelising compiler project (see http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~mcc/olden.html. They mainly use list and tree data structures and are written in C so are 'pointer intensive'. Although the download links work on this page, none of the ones to the papers do. However, there is a brief description of the programs at http://www.irisa.fr/caps/people/truong/M2COct99/Benchmarks/Olden/Welcome.html They are used in the Mitosis Speculative Compilation paper where it is claimed that they are not parallelisable by state of the art compilers (being pointer intensive programs). They have been converted to Java, and the source of these can be found at http://www-ali.cs.umass.edu/DaCapo/benchmarks.html. They might be of interest for some forms of evaluation. Chris has successfully run all the Jolden programs under production JikesRVM on Jamaica with 1 processor. |
