- --= ABSTRACT ===============================================--
- -- A set of tasking benchmarks were developed in
- -- conjunction with the paper "An Assessment of the
- -- Overhead Associated with Tasking Facilities
- -- and Task Paradigms in Ada" which appeared in the
- -- January,February 1987 Ada Letters. These benchmarks
- -- were developed to measure the efficiency of the
- -- implementation of the Ada tasking model, and
- -- evaluate the additional cost of introducing
- -- intermediaries for the various tasking paradigms.
