Abstract :
The paper characterizes the behavior of the latest Pro/ENGINEER V19 benchmark, Bench98TM, on an IA-32 workstation platform based on the recently introduced Pentium(R) II XeonTM processor and 82440GX AGPset. The paper investigates the sensitivity of the benchmark to the size and/or speed of various platform components and analyzes the floating point, branching, caching, and memory behavior of the benchmark, comparing the results to the measurements obtained using SPEC95
