- The best source of binaries would be asking the vendors themselves.
-
- Unfortunately, while many of the SPEC benchmarks have been derived from
- publically available application programs, the changes to convert them to a
- portable SPEC benchmark, the workloads used for the benchmarks and the tools
- created to run the benchmarks are all covered by SPEC license. To use these, a
- SPEC license must be obtained for each suite.
-
- The cost of the CINT92 and CFP92 are $425 and $575 respectively. I would suggest
- calling SPEC at (703) 698-9600 x318. You should also inquire about academic
- discounts.
