In the following we describe the two basic methods of benchmarking provided with ViennaProfiler:

• Either by running a black-box application from command line
• or by injecting profiling statements directly in source-code.

Benchmarking at source code level is provided by the Profiler-class:

• myDBImpl...provides the connection to the database
• myTimerImpl...provides time measurement functionality
• "host"...has to be the host name of an existing host from the HOST-table
