This benchmark is intended for use in computer architecture research, systems research, performance evaluation and high-performance computing. The codes in the suite have been modified by the development team at Northwestern University in order to produce a uniform and consolidated benchmark suite. All rights reserved.

NEWLY ADDED: Data generator for clustering algorithms. (December 2010). It can be downloaded by clicking the link for NU-MineBench version 3.0. We have also used IBM Quest Data Generator to create syntethic data sets for association rule mining as well as classification applications. The data generator can be downloaded from IBM's website.

New applications based Approximate Frequent Pattern Mining Algorithms (October 2008)
