SPEC A non-profit corporation registered in California formed to "establish, maintain and endorse a standardized set of relevant {benchmarks} that can be applied to the newest generation of high-performance computers" (from SPEC's bylaws). The founders believe that the user community will benefit greatly from an objective series of applications-oriented tests, which can serve as common reference points and be considered during the evaluation process. SPEC develops suites of {benchmark}s intended to measure computer performance. These are available to the public for a fee covering development and administration costs. The current (14 Nov 94) SPEC benchmark suites are: {CINT92} (CPU intensive integer benchmarks); {CFP92} (CPU intensive floating-point benchmarks); SDM (UNIX Software Development Workloads); SFS (System level file server (NFS) workload). {Results (ftp://ftp.cdf.toronto.edu/pub/spectable)}. SPEC also publishes a quarterly report of SPEC news and results, The SPEC Newsletter. Some issues are {here (http://performance.netlib.org/performance/html/spec.html)}. There is a {FAQ} about SPEC {here (http://performance.netlib.org/performance/html/specfaq.html)}. (1994-11-14) | |
