===Motivation===
Traditional benchmarks that existed before NPB, such as the [[Livermore loops]], the [[LINPACK|LINPACK Benchmark]] and the [http://www.netlib.org/benchmark/nas NAS Kernel Benchmark Program], were usually specialized for vector computers. They generally suffered from inadequacies including parallelism-impeding tuning restrictions and insufficient problem sizes, which rendered them inappropriate for highly parallel systems. Equally unsuitable were full-scale application benchmarks due to high porting cost and unavailability of automatic software parallelization tools.<ref name="rnr94007">{{Citation
