Claypool and Riedl study audioconference processor load [2]. We focus on the effects of silence deletion. We find silence deletion improves audioconference CPU load more than most alternatives, including 10 times faster processors and multicasting.
Dongarra compares the performance of different computer systems in solving dense systems of linear equations [3]. He compares the performance of approximately 100 computers, from a CRAY Y-MP to scientific workstations such as Apollos and Suns to IBM PC's.
Our work resents an alternative method for measuring CPU performance. We expand upon our model measurements of the effects of compression on CPU performance.
