In order to test the performance of our software, we collected about 3600 device chains from Registry of Standard Parts, and extracted the associate relationships among these chains. All these information are stored in our database.
Firstly, we tested the response time of different functions of our software. Table 1 shows the results of different query functions. The results are averaged from 10 independent runs. From the results, we can find that all the time is really short, less than 0.1 seconds.

We also tested the response time of recommendation. Table 2 listed the results in terms of different number of given biobricks. Since our software recommend biobrick based on at most 4 biobricks’ information. Thus, the maximum number of given biobricks is 4. These times are really short, less than 0.4 seconds. Users could get the recommendation almost instantly. This could greatly reduce the time used for designing.

Secondly, we tested the performance of recommendation. 10 device chains were randomly selected for this test. Table 3 shows the results, where the recommendation ratio is the ratio of the number of correctly recommended biobricks over the length of device chains, and the correctly recommended biobricks means these biobricks are in recommended lists. The average recommendation ratio is 75.4%. This ratio actually is really high, since only 24.6% of biobricks are not in the recommended lists.

We also use the new designed chains from BIT team to test the performance of our software. Table 4 shows the results. The averaged recommendation ratio is 66.9%. This ratio is smaller than the ratio tested above. The reason is that the new designed chains consist of some new biobricks that the database does not contain. These biobricks are hardly to recommend and effect the recommendation of next biobrick. However, this ratio still proves our software works well even when using new designed biobricks. We could believe that as more and more biobricks and device chains are added into our database, our software could recommend more and more efficiently and accurately.
