Brief description
401.bzip2
Julian Seward’s bzip2 version 1.0.3, modified to do most work in memory, rather than doing I/O
433.milc
A gauge field generating program for lattice gauge theory programs with dynamical quarks
434.zeusmp
ZEUS-MP is a computational fluid dynamics code developed at the Laboratory for Computational
Astrophysics (NCSA, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) for the simulation of astrophysical phenomena
437.leslie3d
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) using large-eddy simulations with linear-eddy model in 3D; uses the MacCormack predictor-corrector time integration scheme
445.gobmk
Plays the game of go, a simply described but deeply complex game
453.povray
Image rendering; the test case is antialiased image of a landscape with some abstract objects with textures using a Perlin noise function
456.hmmer
Protein sequence analysis using profile hidden Markov models (profile HMMs)
458.sjeng
A highly-ranked chess program that also plays several chess variants
464.h264ref
A reference implementation of H.264/AVC encodes a videostream using 2 parameter sets; the H.264/AVC standard is expected to replace MPEG2
481.wrf
Weather modeling from scales of meters to thousands of kilometers; the test case is from a 30 km area over 2 days
