GAINESVILLE, VA., 4 June 2025 (Globe Newswire) – Standard Performance Evaluation Corp. (spec), The trusted leader in computer benchmarks today announced that spec International group group (ISG) successfully advocated that the United States clarify the export policy to allow companies on the Office of Industry and Security (BIS) ttity list to participate in creating standards. Spec is the return of affiliated companies that are excluded from cooperation due to policy reasons, so that the strength of industry, the academic world and the research of all over the world collaborate to collaborate on future standards for the energy efficiency of the computer.
A few years ago, to guarantee the safe application of 5G technology, the US government determined that US agencies are not allowed to collaborate with companies on the bis entity list. This prohibition was never intended to limit the development of global standards. Due to the exaggerated strict definition of the term “standard” in the original exemption clause of BIS, the Spec Sert Suite was classified as a limited technology, which appeared Spec (an international standards organization with 12 Chinese member companies) to continue to develop standards with its members on the entity list.
Harmonized standards are most suitable for consistent design and legal requirements, resulting in a considerable cost reduction for manufacturers to meet extra benchmark requirements worldwide.
Spec -President David Reiner said: “Limiting companies on the entity list of participation in energy -efficiency benchmarks risks The sharing of the worldwide standards process, which denies the primary purpose of standardization. Through years of hard work, we are pleased in the American policy for not successful policy of the American policy for the success in the American policy for the success in the American policy for the successes in the American policy to successfully in the American policy for the US policy. to remove recovery. “
Spec has successfully changed changes to the American rules
In 2020, the BIS of the US Department of Trade changed its rules to enable American companies to work in standards organizations to ensure that American proposals fully take into account international standards that underlie product development and interoperability. Although this was an important milestone, the change did not allow spec companies that belonged to the former members, nor invite other entities to the entity list to participate. In response, Spec undertook a series of actions to argue for the revision of relevant American laws and to promote international technological exchanges and innovation. As part of these efforts, Spec created the International Standards Group (ISG)Specifically designed to meet the updated BIS requirements and to provide a clear separation between the international standards of SPE standards and other spec projects.
As a result of the successful efforts of specput, Bis improved for the regulations at the end of 2022. In the context of the final regulations, organizations on the BIS entity list are no longer limited from licenses, obtaining updates or participating in the development of the specs Suite within the specification. These standards for standards development activities with regard to the implementation, announcement or maintenance of the ISO/IEC 21836: 2020 as standard are eligible for the bis-updated standards-related activity exemption. As a result, Bis -Beursotenottened entities can now obtain Spec Sert -Licensions, updates and membership status in the Spec Specg Server Efficiency specification server.
The return of excluded members is crucial because the spec will enable effective global standardized benchmarks and to apply them to the government’s energy efficiency. The successful acceptance of Spec Sert suites through government regulations such as China National Institute of Standardization, EU LOT9 Ecodesign, the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, and the US EPA Energy Star is crucial for the efforts of Spec to promote the development of sustainable technology around the world. Computer servers that are certified, for example, are on average around 38% more energy efficient than standard servers. This means that if all computer servers sold in the United States were certified, end users would save more than $ 4 billion a year.
The next generation tool for energy efficiency is currently being developed by the spec ISG Server Committee, including representatives of Ampere, AMD, Dell, HPE, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Nvidia and the University of Würzburg. The Sert 3 Suite Uses the innovative modular architecture of the Specpower Committee, which means that streamlined integration of the latest versions of the Benchmark Harness and the PTDaemon interface is possible, which are also used by other spec -benchmarks. This modular design reduces the time needed to develop future workloads, adding new architectures and supporting new power analyzers and temperature sensors.
Klaus-Dieter Lange, chairman of Spec ISG, said: “We are delighted that Spec can successfully work with the US Department of Trade to find a solution to this critical problem. We welcome the innovative companies of the world to participate in the development of the next generation Spec Sert Suite, who will enable governments and companies to achieve sustainable development and carbon emissties.”
