The VersaBench suite is intended to facilitate research in
flexible architectures. We provide each benchmark as a C
program, although you may rewrite the application in any another
language (e.g., Fortran, StreamIt, Verilog, Assembly). We will
post different implementations, for each benchmark, as they
become available.
We will also post VersaBench results for
different architectures as they become available.
The VersaBench suite consists of fifteen benchmarks, organized
into five categories: desktop integer,
desktop floating-point, server,
embedded-streaming, and embedded-bit-processing.
The VersaBench suite is distributed
as a gzipped-tar file. You may also download benchtools, a set of scripts designed
to automate the compilation and result gathering processes.
