       -- Results: 
          -- linear regression prediction of relative cpu performance
          -- Recorded 34% average deviation from actual values

       Real-Valued Attributes.  In Proceedings of the CSCSI (Canadian

       -- Results:
          -- instance-based prediction of relative cpu performance
          -- similar results; no transformations required
    - Predicted attribute: cpu relative performance (numeric)

4. Relevant Information:
   -- The estimated relative performance values were estimated by the authors
      using a linear regression method.  See their article (pp 308-313) for
      more details on how the relative performance values were set.

5. Number of Instances: 209 

6. Number of Attributes: 10 (6 predictive attributes, 2 non-predictive, 
                             1 goal field, and the linear regression's guess)
