JPapaBench : A new benchmark was born.

A new real-time Java benchmark - JPapabench, was developed by a team lead by Michal Malohlava at Charles University in Prague.

The most exciting facts about this benchmark are:
  • jPapabench is based on the Paparazi project which provides an actual implementation of an unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) autopilot. Therefore, the benchmark is trully reflecting an autopilot software that is used in real life UAVs.
  • JPapabench is available in several versions: regular Java, Real-time Java, and Safety-Critical Java.
  • the project is open-source and available at http://code.google.com/p/jpapabench/.
Enjoy.
