Platform Evaluator is an easy-to-use tool for determining the right hardware platform for your real-time application. It allows you to vary the system loads, select the measurement criteria, and determine an accurate measurement of the real-time capabilities of any reference platform. Performance measurements and related configuration information is tracked and saved for comparison purposes. System Integrators, OEMs, and Developers can easily perform hardware selection for RTX-based applications. Users who often need to test one or more computers to evaluate the real-time performance that can be delivered for an RTX application will benefit from the easy to use controls. Platform Evaluator, while making the test cases easy to perform, also summarizes the test results and logs them to a simple text file. Real-time response can vary dramatically between what may appear to be similar hardware platforms.
Platform Evaluator is a standard tool for comparing hardware and software configurations in a simple and accurate manner which:
-
Measures and displays timing statistics
-
Evaluates Win32 API performance
-
Offers basic loads for evaluating the suitability of device drivers
-
Graphically and numerically displays performance results
-
Collects hardware and Windows® system configuration information
