Benchmarks

This page provides pointers to benchmarks and datasets that you can readily use in simulations within Archer.

Benchmark: SPEC2000

Simulator: SESC (architecture: MIPS)

• Original package: http://masc.soe.ucsc.edu/sescSPEC.tgz
• Archer archive: http://www.grid-appliance.org/files/archer/archive/benchmarks/sescSPEC_072508.tgz (Archival date: 7/25/2008)

Binaries for running SPEC2000 on SESC are available, but in order to run them you will need a license to have access to the input files. Visit the SPEC web site for more information on how to obtain a license. You can download and install the binaries as follows.

cd ~
mkdir benchmarks
mkdir sescbin
cd benchmarks/sescbin
sudo wget http://masc.soe.ucsc.edu/sescSPEC.tgz
tar -xzf sescSPEC.tgz 

Benchmark: SPLASH2

Simulator: SESC (architecture: MIPS)

• Original package: http://www-flash.stanford.edu/apps/SPLASH/splash2.tar.gz
• Archer archive: http://www.grid-appliance.org/files/archer/archive/benchmarks/splash2_072508.tar.gz (Archival date: 7/25/2008)

The SPLASH-2 binaries for SESC are packaged in the same file sescSPEC.tgz as the SPEC binaries for SESC. Follow the instructions shown above for SPEC on SESC. You will also need to download the SPLASH-2 package to retrieve input files that are used for SPLASH-2 runs:

cd ~/benchmarks
mkdir SPLASH2
cd SPLASH2
wget http://www-flash.stanford.edu/apps/SPLASH/splash2.tar.gz
tar -xzf splash2.tar.gz
mv splash2/codes/kernels splash2
mv splash2/codes/apps splash2
