What About SPEC 1170?

SPEC 1170 does not have anything to do with SPEC, the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation. It’s a different spec.

SPEC 1170 is an older name for what is now called UNIX 98, which is an X/Open brand for compliance with a "Single UNIX Specification" – basically a standardized UNIX. More information about UNIX 98 can be obtained from: http://www.unix-systems.org/
