SPEC Adds Workload Development Kit to SPECapc for Siemens NX 2024 Benchmark for Custom, Secure Performance Evaluation

The Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC) has introduced a Workload Development Kit (WDK) for its Siemens NX 2024 benchmark. This tool allows users to test proprietary models and custom workflows while maintaining data security.
Why it matters
Standardized benchmarking is critical for hardware and software vendors to evaluate performance in professional engineering environments.
Enables vendors and consumers to test custom workloads and run proprietary models for greater flexibility and security
Siemens NX is award-winning, processor-intensive software that helps designers and manufacturers deliver better products faster through a powerful combination of CAD and CAM solutions. The SPECapc for Siemens NX 2024 benchmark executes graphics tests that include rotation, pan, zoom and clipping for each model. Viewport tests within the benchmark measure performance for field of view and feature regeneration operations. Professionals, students, and artists, as well as hardware developers and vendors, use the benchmark to discover how different hardware configurations affect the performance of their applications. The addition of the SPECapc for Siemens NX 2024 WDK gives these users a framework to evaluate internal models and specialized workflows, providing greater flexibility and security for proprietary information.
