C776 A Replacement for a Large Machine
This is exactly the time when the green and yellow don't answer.
When it developed to a large-scale integrated circuit, Han Country quickly fell behind and was forced to use foreign chips. After that, the domestic market started to prioritize buying, and completely lost the ability to research and develop.
In the later generations, all kinds of super computers in Han Country sounded to be advanced in terms of performance. They were the most advanced in the world, and among the top ten supercomputers in Han Country, there were quite a few.
However, supercomputers like Heavenly River No. 2 used the most powerful processor of Intel Company. With the ban on the exit of Y Country, advanced chips could not be obtained.
Until the birth of the new computer, the Super Divine Might - Light of Taihu Supercomputer. It was only after the installation of 40960 independent "Shen Wei 26010" nuclear processor developed by the Han Country, which used 64 autonomous Shen Wei command systems. The peak performance was 12. 5,000,000,000 times per second, continuous performance of 9. 3.3 billion times per second.
The computer system purchased foreign chips, which could be said to have started in the late 70s.
Qin Guan's access point was already considered too late.
Long Xin 1, Han Xin 1, these advanced microprocessors. They were all developed in the recent two years at the domestic computer institute. They also began to hope to develop supercomputers that carried these processors, but they were not commercialized yet. And the supercomputer in front of them was using the chip from IBM Company.
Putting these aside, the assembling process was really too poor. This welding technology, it would be a miracle if there was no malfunction!
Qin Guan could not intervene and watched everyone repair. All of a sudden, from noon to afternoon, from afternoon to night, all the way until three o'clock in the night, finally, the red-eyed Colonel Chen said, "Here, this resistance void welding is done!"
The trigger of this resistance was surrounded by pine incense. Usually, there was even a little welding tin that came into contact with it. But after a long time, the salt on the sea was corroded, and coupled with the shaking of the ship, the vibration of the engine finally completely broke it off. There was a malfunction. Although it was mainly powered by integrated circuits, there were still some separated components. If any component malfunctioned, it could cause a total malfunction.
"Bring the soldering iron!" Colonel Chen personally took action. He heated the electric soldering iron and welded the resistor inducing leg. Then, he returned to the top. As expected, the malfunction was eliminated.
"President Qin, you haven't gone to sleep yet?" Only then did Colonel Chen notice Qin Guan, who had been observing him from the side, and asked him.
Qin Guan looked at the exhausted technical staff and said, "No one feels tired. What else do I have to work for? But I feel that our system is not reliable!"
Who knew if there would be any problems when needed? The welding level of this kind of computer was not good. At the same time, it lacked a suitable self-examination system.
After all, the previous super computers were only used on land. This time, it was in the sea.
Colonel Chen also had a helpless expression. "Yes, there are some problems with this system. However, we don't have any substitute products for now."
In order to perform aerospace control, the performance of the computer needed to be especially advanced. The more powerful the computing ability, the better.
"What do you think of the computers produced by our Han Chip Technology Company? If necessary, we can give priority to our monitoring ship at any time."
Hearing Qin Guan's words, Colonel Chen continued to shake his head. "President Qin, the computers of the Han Chip Technology Company are indeed very advanced. But... It is still impossible to replace our large-scale computers. Its computing ability is simply not enough."
The work of a large-scale computer, what are the microfunctions for?
It can.
In the future, other than the supercomputer of a national project, those large and medium-sized machines and so on, had all declined. Due to the rapid development of super-large-scale integrated circuits, tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of crystal tubes could gradually be integrated into a chip. The rapidly developing computers in the 1980s and later were the "microcomputers" and superpowerful "microcomputers," which could be used to form servers or parallel processing. The other types of computers were cost-effective. Since they were unable to compete with the microphones, they naturally left the stage.
The processing ability of a computer in the future was much faster than the current most advanced large-scale computer.
Simply put, for the common I7 processor in the future, for example, the I7 980X Excluder: 3.3 3GHZ * 6 * 4 = 79. 92 GFLs, which was also known as i7,980X Expressor, had 799 per second. 200 million peak computing ability.
CPU's peak computing ability (how many floats are calculated per second) = CPU frequency xCPU core number xFloat unit number.
It could be seen that if an I7 host from the future generation was brought over, it would be enough to replace so many big guys in the computer room.
Therefore, in the future, those computer companies that still held large machines and did not adjust their strategies in time, such as CDC and Wang An, all closed down.
Of course, right now, their own PC processing ability was not enough, but they still had other ways.
"Maybe our single computer's computing ability is not enough. But... We can connect a lot of computers to the computer network for calculations." Qin Guan said, "For example, we can provide 50 Han Xin computers, which is enough to complete all the tasks for aerospace control. We just need to develop specialized software, and at the same time, use these computers to connect to the internet. There will also be a surplus. Once one of the computers malfunctions, it won't affect the other computers. The entire system can still operate. "
If one computer isn't enough, it can be connected to the internet! Once I connect to the internet, I will be able to satisfy all my needs.2
In the future, some people wanted to do complex calculations, but they could not borrow supercomputers. The idea they adopted was to use other computers on the internet to help them calculate. If one computer was not enough, what about a thousand or ten thousand?
Now, as long as fifty Han Xin computers were used, they could completely replace this unreliable large computer.
Hearing Qin Guan's words, Colonel Chen thought about it and said, "That's right. This time, when we go back, we can try. If we can succeed, President Qin, you will be our great contributor!"
It was all thanks to President Qin's reminder that they were looking for this malfunction today. Otherwise, they did not know when they would find it. At the same time, if they used separate computers to connect to the Internet, the reliability would be greatly improved.
"Let's go, President Qin. Let's go and rest." Colonel Chen said to Qin Guan and led him out of the main control hall.
After the ship was big, there were more rooms inside. It was like walking in a maze. If they were not familiar with it, they might lose it.
Now, Qin Guan followed Colonel Chen to the resting area. He could not help sticking his tongue out. It was a standard double room. It was the treatment of a five-star hotel!
Thinking about the small space on the destroyer beside, this place really enjoyed it.
