Abstract
This survey provides a summary description of some of the major Ada benchmarks currently available and an evaluation of their applicability to the Real-Time Embedded Systems Testbed Project at the SEI. The benchmarks discussed are the University of Michigan benchmarks, the ACM Performance Issues Working Group (PIWG) benchmarks, and the prototype Ada Compiler Evaluation Capability (ACEC) of the Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA).
