Benchmarking Ada tasking on tightly coupled multiprocessor architectures
PHILIPPE COLLARD, Andre Goforth, MATTHEW MARQUARDT · 7th Computers in Aerospace Conference · 1989
The development of benchmarks and performance measures for parallel Ada tasking is reported with emphasis on the macroscopic behavior of the benchmark across a set of load parameters. The application chosen for the study was the NASREM model for telerobot control, relevant to many NASA missions. The results of the study demonstrate the potential of parallel Ada in accomplishing the task of developing a control system for a system such as the Flight Telerobotic Servicer using the NASREM framework.
