Traditional benchmarks that were publicly available before PARSEC were generally limited in their scope of included application domains or typically only available in an unparallelized, serial version. Parallel programs were only prevalent in the ___domain of [[High-Performance Computing]] and on a much smaller scale in business environments.<ref name=parsec_splash_comparison>{{Cite doibook | last1 = Bienia | first1 = C. | last2 = Kumar | first2 = S. | last3 = Kai Li | doi = 10.1109/IISWC.2008.4636090 | chapter = PARSEC vs. SPLASH-2: A quantitative comparison of two multithreaded benchmark suites on Chip-Multiprocessors | title = 2008 IEEE International Symposium on Workload Characterization | pages = 47 | year = 2008 | isbn = 978-1-4244-2777-2 | pmid = | pmc = }}</ref> [[multi-core processor|Chip-multiprocessors]] however were expected to be heavily used in all areas of computing such as with parallelized consumer applications.
