So far, we have been looking at Computer Architecture from a very high level…and hopefully, you are starting to look at your laptops and cell phones in terms that you were not before this class… We also discussed that every computer design is optimized with performance in mind so the question now is…just how good (or bad) is MY laptop compared against some performance benchmarks…
See the website below:
https://www.passmark.com/products/pt.htm
This site has free benchmarking software that you can download and run against your computer…download the software and let it run against your system…run both the Standard AND the Advanced Test…
NOTE: THE ABOVE LINK IS FOR WINDOWS TESTING…PLEASE SEE THE FOLLOWING WEBSITES FOR SOME PERFORMANCE TESTING SOFTWARE FOR THE MAC…IF YOU ARE A MAC USER AND ALREADY HAVE A PERFORMANCE MEASURE SOFTWARE, YOU MAY USE IT…
https://browser.geekbench.com/mac-benchmarks
https://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/mac/test-mac-speed-3654776/
So how did your system do?…what was your overall score and percentile?…what are the scores telling you?…were you surprised by the results?…do the benchmarks provided sync up with how you feel your system is performing?…provide some screen shots of the results…what takeaways do you have from this test?…any follow-ups?…how can you improve the performance of your laptop?…do you use any other performance testing software?…if so, which ones?…how do the results compare?…provide screen shots of the other performance monitoring software…
Keep your results handy…we will refer to them throughout the semester…
As I mentioned, I am more concerned with QUALITY than I am with QUANTITY…but just as a guideline, you should submit at least ONE FULL PAGES OF WRITTEN CONTENT…meaning that screen shots (and this assignment has many), title page, source listing, etc. do NOT count as part of the one page…
Plagiarism is not allowed and I will give you an automatic zero if I discover that any part of your work was plagiarized either from the internet or another student's paper.
