South African Universities have some of the lowest admission rates, as only NSC Results, standardized test scores (National Benchmark Test) and demographic information play a role in determining admission. In 2023, around 900 000 students participated in the NSC final exams, with around 570 000 students passing.
SPEC was founded in 1988 and its membership comprises over 120 computer hardware and software vendors, educational institutions, research organizations, and government agencies internationally. SPEC benchmarks and tools are widely used to evaluate the performance of computer systems; the test results are published on the SPEC website.
The Whetstone benchmark is a synthetic benchmark for evaluating the performance of computers. [1] It was first written in ALGOL 60 in 1972 at the Technical Support Unit of the Department of Trade and Industry (later part of the Central Computer and Telecommunications Agency) in the United Kingdom.
The computer is an exaflop computer, but was not submitted to the TOP500 list; the first exaflop machine submitted to the TOP500 list was Frontier. Analysts suspected that the reason the NSCQ did not submit what would otherwise have been the world's first exascale supercomputer was to avoid inflaming political sentiments and fears within the ...
A graphical demo running as a benchmark of the OGRE engine. In computing, a benchmark is the act of running a computer program, a set of programs, or other operations, in order to assess the relative performance of an object, normally by running a number of standard tests and trials against it.
The benchmark used in Graph500 stresses the communication subsystem of the system, instead of counting double precision floating-point. [1] It is based on a breadth-first search in a large undirected graph (a model of Kronecker graph with average degree of 16). There are three computation kernels in the benchmark: the first kernel is to ...
With results in from 20.4%% of polling stations, the ANC's share of the vote in Wednesday's election stood at 43.4%, with the pro-business Democratic Alliance (DA) on 24.8%, data from the ...
CPU2006 is a set of benchmarks designed to test the CPU performance of a modern server computer system. It is split into two components, the first being CINT2006, the other being CFP2006 , for floating point testing. SPEC defines a base runtime for each of the 12 benchmark programs. For SPECint2006, that number ranges from 1000 to 3000 seconds.
