The five directories Hanoi, Mand, TestDes, aster, and espresso contain the java source files for the application benchmarks, and the micro directory contains the java source for the java microbenchmarks. The application directories also contain a file named "URL" which has the URL from which we originally downloaded the source.
The Mand directory also contains the class files that we used for our measurements; the class files were actually compiled from a slightly modified version of the Mand.java file in the directory. The modifications automated the application so that it performed three operations and exited, without requiring user input; these modifications were lost due to a disk crash.
The TestDes directory contains the java source for the des benchmark, as well as source for the C version (written locally). Interestingly, this benchmark will work fine on some versions of the java interpreter (e.g., the version we used on the alpha for the paper), but reports errors on others (e.g., on Solaris). This appears to be due to the arithmetic shift operations.
