Abstract
Computer System Performance and Evaluation deal with the investigation of computer components (both hardware and
software) with a view of establishing the level of their performances. This research works on performance evaluation studies on Intel single-core and dual-core processes to know which processor has better execution time and throughput. The architecture of Intel single-core and Intel duo-core processors were studied. On-chip multi-threading, dual-core processors deliver better performance-to-cost ratios relative to their single-core predecessors. However, they present challenges in developing high-performance multi-threaded code. SPEC CPU2006 benchmarks suite was used to measure the performance of the processors. The overall execution time and throughput measurement of Intel single and dual-core processors were reported and compared. The research results showed that the execution time of CQ56 Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor is about 3.42% faster than Intel Celeron Single Core Processor, while the throughput of Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor was found to be 1.03 times higher than Intel Celeron Single Core Processor
