    Patent number: 5161116
    Abstract: A robot system for evaluating the performance of a host computer system which has a plurality of host communication ports connectable to a corresponding plurality of user terminals. Prior to placing the host computer system into service with the user terminals, the robot system is used to emulate the user terminals and to emulate predefined computing tasks input to the host computer system for the user terminals. The master CPU in turn is connected to the plurality of smaller slave CPU's. The smaller slave CPU's are connected to the communication ports of the host computer system. Each of the slave CPU's emulate several user terminals by inputting various computing tasks to the host computer system.
