14 DAY TRIAL // Kishonti Informatics, the worldwide leader of mobile performance benchmarking has announced the Jbenchmark ARM CPU estimator that measures the performance of Java-enabled mobile devices.
According to the company, there are large variations in processor clock frequencies of different mobile phones. The JBenchmark ACE identifies all major ARM processor generations including the AMR7, AMR9 and newer ARM11 processor family included among other phones in the Nokia N93.
Since there are no native Java methods that provide information regarding an embedded processor, the JBenchmark uses innovative measurements, statistical methods as well as a database of devices to get a precise estimation of the processor class and clock frequency.
To make sure that the estimation is realistic, each result is classified and compared to all other results in the database.
The JBenchmark ACE is 90 percent accurate, estimating 90 percent of the processor clock frequencies correctly to within 10 percent margin of error. Any Java-enabled mobile device can be tested and added to the database.
"The JBenchmark ACE meets the growing demand from consumers and developers for more transparency in mobile architectures and helps to explain the wide differences in mobile application performance," said Stuart Robinson, director, Handset Component Technologies, Strategy Analytics. "According to our latest research, virtually all mobile phones incorporate at least one ARM processor, and almost 1.2 billion handsets in use are Java-enabled, meaning that ACE can compare the performance of nearly all mobile devices."
Currently, the JBenchmark ACE database contains over 250 tested devices. New results are automatically added into the database. The client application is free and available from the company's website.
