MIPS-year
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A MIPS-year is a measurement of computational steps for computers. MIPS means million instructions per second, and a MIPS-year is equal to the number of steps processed for one year at one million instructions per second.
Thus, a MIPS-year would be equal to:
1,000,000 • (365 days/year) • (86400 seconds/day), or approximately 31.5 trillion instructions.
