Benchmarking Efforts

• BDTImark benchmark by Berkeley Design Technology Inc. (BDTI) is a benchmark of 11 assembly language kernels. The kernels are hand optimized and use only on-chip memory. They do test memory bandwidth.
• A complementary benchmarking effort tests the performance of the compiled C code. This benchmarking effort is by a consortium of more than 30 companies organized by Electronic Data News (EDN) called the EDN Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium. They have developed a variety of benchmarks for embedded processors (microcontrollers, DSPs, etc.) for different application spaces (automotive-industrial, consumer, office automation, networking and telecommunications).
