A Java API for Experimental analysis of algorithms

Traditionally, the emphasis among computer scientists has been on the more rigorous and theoretical modes of worstcase and average-case analysis of algorithms. However, theoretical analysis cannot tell the full story about realworld performance of algorithms. This has resulted in a growing interest in experimental analysis. This paper presents the development of a solution that aides in the experimental analysis of Java-based implementations. KEY WORDS Algorithm Analysis, Benchmarking, Software Tools, Java
