How this entity was disambiguated

This entity first appeared as the object of triple T2447523 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

NED1 Entity disambiguation (via context triple) gpt-5-mini-2025-08-07

Target entity: PCI-SIG
Context triple: [PCI Express, developer, PCI-SIG]

A. PCI Express
PCI Express is a high-speed serial computer expansion bus standard used to connect components like graphics cards, SSDs, and network cards to a motherboard.
B. VESA Local Bus
VESA Local Bus was a high-speed expansion bus standard for IBM-compatible PCs in the early 1990s, designed primarily to improve graphics and overall system performance by providing a faster connection to the CPU than the older ISA bus.
C. SATA-IO
SATA-IO (Serial ATA International Organization) is an industry consortium that defines and maintains the Serial ATA (SATA) storage interface standards used in computers and consumer electronics.
D. USB Implementers Forum
The USB Implementers Forum is a non-profit industry consortium that develops, maintains, and promotes USB specifications and compliance programs for hardware and software manufacturers.
E. EISA
EISA (Extended Industry Standard Architecture) is a 32-bit computer bus standard developed in the late 1980s to provide improved performance and backward compatibility over the earlier ISA bus in personal computers and servers.
F. None of above. chosen
G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
