Unibench: A Tool for Automated and Collaborative Benchmarking

We have identified the need for a universal benchmarking tool that enforces consistency as well as proper documentation. Enforcing these aspects without restricting the tool´s applicability poses a major challenge. This paper introduces a tool for coordinating the running of experiments on remote machines. A simple web interface allows for source code to be submitted. Experiments are run and results are publicly disseminated via a web interface without user intervention. The system has already enabled sharing of resources internationally and good scientific inquiry.
