OPC Project Group
Member Publishing
1. Members of the OPC project group receive six free configurations
to report for each viewset in a calendar quarter.
2. The number of free submittals is not accruable or transferrable
from quarter to quarter.
3. The number of submittals from one viewset cannot be applied
to another viewset. If, for example, a member publishes numbers
for three systems for the CDRS viewset and seven for the DX viewset,
the member would pay for one system.
4. A change in pricing does not constitute a new configuration.
5. The charge is $50 per configuration for each viewset above
six in a calendar quarter.
6. A configuration will be published on-line for one year, unless
the submitter notifies the publisher that it should be removed.
After one year, the configuration will be removed automatically,
unless the submitter notifies the publisher that it should remain
on-line. There are no additional fees for extending on-line
publication beyond one year.
7. The OPC project group may remove configurations as a result
of revisions in viewsets or Viewperf. In this case, the vendor
will be given notice by the project group and may, at no charge,
resubmit the identical configuration for the revised viewset or
Viewperf.
8. A new configuration is defined as any that requires a change
in the hardware or software section of the submittal form.
Non-Member Publishing
Non-members of the OPC project group may submit Viewperf performance
results at a cost of $200 per configuration for each viewset.
Any change in hardware or software constitutes a new configuration.
Rules 6, 7 and 8 for members also apply to non-members submitting
performance results for publication.
PLB Project Group
Member Publishing
1. Members of the PLB project group receive six free configurations
to report per calendar quarter at no charge. Each submission
must include all tests in each averaged group (PLBwire93, PLBsurf93)
or none of them.
2. The number of free submittals is not accruable or transferrable
from quarter to quarter.
3. OPC rule number 3 does not apply to the PLB project group.
Membership in this group provides six free configurations per
calendar quarter. Members cannot publish, for example, six systems
for PLBwire93 and six different systems for PLBsurf93 under the
allowance for six free configurations.
4. A change in pricing does not constitute a new configuration.
5. The charge is $50 for each configuration above six in a calendar
quarter.
6. A configuration will be published on-line for one year, unless
the submitter notifies the publisher that it should be removed.
After one year, the configuration will be removed automatically,
unless the submitter notifies the publisher that it should remain
on-line. There are no additional fees for extending on-line
publication beyond one year.
7. Configurations may be removed by the PLB project group as a
result of revisions in standard benchmark files or BIF Spec changes.
In this case, the vendor will be given notice by the project
group and may, at no charge, resubmit the identical configuration
for the revised benchmark file or BIF Spec.
8. A new configuration is defined as any that requires a change
in the hardware or software section of the submittal form.
Non-Member Publishing
Because of the extensive work that must be done to port the Picture-Level
Benchmark to specific APIs, the PLB project group requires membership
in order to report PLB results.
XPC Project Group
Member Publishing
The OPC project group's rules also apply to the XPC group. Currently,
XPC project group members receive six free configurations to report
per calendar quarter.
Non-Member Publishing
Non-members of the XPC project group may submit Xmark93 performance
results at a cost of $200 for each configuration. Any change
in hardware or software constitutes a new configuration. Rules
6, 7 and 8 of the OPC guidelines for members also apply to XPC
non-members submitting performance results for publication.
