This might sound strange, but does anyone have PDP-8 assembly code for some smallish benchmark programs? I can write these myself, but I thought I might check to see if they already exist.... I'm looking for things like the old Byte benchmarks (circa 1981) or the benchmarks used in the first RISC articles (e.g. Patterson/Sequin, Computer Magazine, Sept. 1982). Things like sieve, sort (quicksort, heapsort, etc.), string move, string search, ackerman, simple puzzle solvers, matrix operations, software floating point, etc. I'll be running these on a simulator, so I'll just initialize the memory, run the code, and look at the results in memory (that is to say, I can do with just subroutines for most of the simple stuff). Thanks, --Bruce Holmer holmer@eecs.nwu.edu
