At ISSCC last February, NEC announced 32-bit microprocessors, the
V60 and V70.  One of my jobs over the coming months will be to 
evaluate the performance of the V60.  I want to put together a 
package of benchmarks for this purpose and would appreciate 
suggestions.  I will compile responses and post them to the network 
if there is interest.

	1. C code benchmarks are my primary interest.  References
	   to published studies (or copies of unpublished studies)
	   evaluating processors or C compilers will be appreciated.  
	   Benchmark source code is also needed.

	2. In an emulation mode, the V60 will execute 8086 code.
	   For this reason, assembly coded benchmarks for the
	   8086 are of interest.  Again, I am interested in both 
	   source code and any related performance studies.

	3. The V60 performs floating point arithmetic, so
	   I am interested in benchmarks to evaluate floating 
	   point arithmetic.  I am especially interested in C
	   language or assembly language benchmarks of this kind 
	   since a Fortran compiler is not immediately avalilable.

			If you want literature on 
			the V60, I would prefer that 
			you call
			            1-800-632-3531

			rather than send me mail.


			Thanks in advance for all responses.
