  • Abstract
    Benchmark consumers expect benchmark suites to be complete, accurate, and consistent, and benchmark scores serve as relative measures of performance. however, it is important to understand how benchmarks stress the processors that they aim to test. this study explores the stress points of the EEMBC embedded benchmark suite using the benchmark characterization technique.
