TPCC-UVa: an open-source TPC-C implementation for parallel and distributed systems

This paper presents TPCC-UVa, an open-source implementation of the TPC-C benchmark intended to be used in parallel and distributed systems. TPCC-UVa is written entirely in C language and it uses the PostgreSQL database engine. This implementation includes all the functionalities described by the TPC-C standard specification for the measurement of both uni- and multiprocessor systems performance. The major characteristics of the TPC-C specification are discussed, together with a description of the TPCC-UVa implementation and architecture and real examples of performance measurements.
