Abstract
In less than a year since its Introduction the System performance Evaluation Cooperative (SPEC ((TM))) benchmarks have established themselves as an Important and widely distributed benchmark suite for engineering and scientific workstations, displacing the old standards Dhrystone, Linpack and Whetstone. This is because most workstation vendors support SPEC and have participated in developing both the benchmarks and a benchmarking methodology that overcome many of the failings of the old benchmark standards. SPEC's strong endorsement by EE TIMES newsmagazine helps insure that SPEC results are heavily publicized in the Industry.
