Version 2.0 (in C) has been published, together `with measurement rules, in SIGPLAN Notices, vol. 23, no. 8, Aug. 1988, `pp. 49-62. Version 2.1 corrects only a few minor deficiencies of version 2.0; `the execution time should be equal. ` `I encourage everyone to use Dhrystone version 2 since it gives more `realistic results than version 1. Is the source of Dhrystone 2.1 availbale somewhere? Or could it be posted? -- Piet van Oostrum, Dept of Computer Science, University of Utrecht Padualaan 14, P.O.
