<p>During the recent years, computer performance has increased dramatically. To measure </p><p>the performance of computers, benchmarks are ideal tools. Benchmarks exist in many </p><p>areas and point to different applications. For instance, in a normal PC, benchmarks can be </p><p>used to test the performance of the whole system which includes the CPU, graphic card, </p><p>memory system, etc. For multiprocessor systems, there also exist open source benchmark </p><p>programs. In our project, we gathered information about some open benchmark programs </p><p>and investigated their applicability for evaluating embedded multiprocessor systems </p><p>intended for radar signal processing. During our investigation, parallel cluster systems </p><p>and embedded multiprocessor systems were studied. Two benchmark programs, HPL and </p><p>NAS Parallel Benchmark were identified as particularly relevant for the application field. </p><p>The benchmark testing was done on a parallel cluster system which has an architecture </p><p>that is similar to the architecture of embedded multiprocessor systems, used for radar </p><p>signal processing.</p>
