SPEC seeks applications, algorithms & workloads for new Workstation Performance Benchmark

The Standard Performance Evaluation Corp (SPEC) is seeking help to develop a new workstation performance benchmark.

The Graphics and Workstation Performance Group (SPEC/GWPG) is seeking applications, algorithms and workloads that measures the performance of workstations running CAE (Computer Aided Engineering),  digital media and entertainment, finance, health sciences and energy. The tests should be scalable (i.e. support multi-core processors), preferably solve large problems, support multiple architectures and be freely available to the public.

For more information, see the workstation benchmark overview on the SPEC website.
