[comp.benchmarks] Basic Benchmark Info Wanted

rawdon@rex.cs.tulane.edu (Michael Rawdon) (03/14/91)

I'm interested in articles (preferably) or books which give basic descriptions
of benchmarks:  What they are, why they're used, how they're designed, hiw
they're used, and so forth.  If anyone can provide me with some sources,
I'd be most grateful.

Many thanx in advance!
