We measure the performance and price/performance of transaction processing systems. We offer both a simple and more complex solution facilitating multiple transaction types, more complex database, and overall execution structures. We will define a set of functional requirements that can be run on any transaction processing system, regardless of hardware or operating system.

Our methodology allows any client or vendor, using "proprietary" or "open" systems,  to ensure and guarantee to end-users that they will not be compromised. This is a dramatic departure from most other systems where the client or vendor is limited to comparing machines  that run on just one operating system or benchmarks that execute the same set of software  instructions. Our solution is not just a measure of a few basic computer or database  transactions, but also a measure of how many complete business operations can be processed  per minute. This new system will give users a more extensive, more complex yardstick for  measuring their system performance.
