The "AIM" benchmarks are marketed by AIM Technologies, sorry I do not remeber
their address.  They are not public domain.  The license agreement requires
that the user will not even distribute the results of the bencmarks except
to AIM or another AIM licensee.  At my previous position the benchmarks were
used to profile a number of different VAXen running either BSD UNIX or Ultrix.
The claim is that the programs will run on practically any machine that has
a C compiler that complies with K&R.
