1694: C1694 Cat Limitations

C1694 Cat Limitations

1"We did a good job. I just came here for a walk." After saying that, Qin Guan walked into the research and development department.

In the modern office, everyone had a computer in front of them. They could hear the sound of keyboard tapping, but there were more. They were all deep in thought in front of the computer, so it was easy to type the code... But, modifying the code... Looking for a bug, this absolutely required skill and patience.

"What are we doing now?" Qin Guan asked.

"Our Red Flag operating system has developed to Version 3.0. It is running very steadily and has text processing software. It can satisfy the daily needs of the office and can also develop projects. Wait, right now, all kinds of software manufacturers are developing all kinds of software based on our system. For example, some companies in China have already started to develop gaming software."

What can computers be used for? They can learn or play games. Of course, Qin Guan did not like to play games. Being addicted to the world of games was definitely a waste of time. Qin Guan hoped that the users in the country could grow healthily.

"Can I go online?" Qin Guan asked Worker Ni.

Hearing what Qin Guan said, Worker Ni immediately gave him a thumbs up. "President Qin, you are really good at foresight. Now, we are developing the application of the Internet and preparing to install a software to browse the Internet in the system."

What? What was being developed now was a browser? Qin Guan suddenly felt that something was wrong. Wasn't the application of the Internet a long time ago?

"It's like this. In the past, it was always under the DoS interface." Lisa, who was beside him, knew what Qin Guan was confused about. She immediately explained to him, "Now, we already have the graphic interface. But... Because the development of the Internet is not fast, we have yet to develop a special browser under our graphic interface. From this year onwards, our browser will be developed as a key project. Jobs also gave many suggestions during the development."

Lisa did not bring Jobs over. Jobs was still busy with his business. Also, it seemed that Lisa had gotten bored of Jobs recently. Qin Guan had to keep a distance from her.

He only started to develop the browser under the graphic interface this year. Qin Guan thought for a while. He still said his request. "Then can we create a special chatting software, which is a dialog box? After typing, we can directly communicate with the other party. This way, it will be faster than the chatroom. It is more secretive, can add different friends, and can create a group. Do you want to chat? "

Chatroom software?

In the era of DoS, there was already a chatroom saying: Everyone logged in and began chatting under the black character interface. Now, under the graphic interface, naturally it could be done even more beautifully. A software specifically used for chatting and then also installed in their own system?

For this kind of thing, whoever took the first step first would occupy the highest point. Back then when QQ competed with the UC, the UC ultimately lost because it was a step too late.

Furthermore, their own side had the advantage. They were the developers of the operating system. If it was installed, then everyone would definitely use it.

"This, it can be used." Worker Ni nodded.

Seeing Worker Ni nod, Qin Guan dared to continue talking about what he was going to do next. "Then, can you add in the video call function inside? Our computer can already play digital films. This shouldn't be difficult, right?"

However, Worker Ni shook his head this time. "President Qin, are you joking? How is this possible?"

" How is it impossible? Are our computers not strong enough?" Qin Guan asked curiously. The CPU of the computers had already started to move toward the GHZ. Was this still not enough? In terms of the display cards, they did not seem to be weak. They could already use the computer to make pictures. The display cards were also sufficient.

"No, it's just that our network isn't good enough. If we want to transmit videos, our network won't be able to reach it."

"We can use other companies' products. For example, the company that Ren Gong set up is specialized in producing exchange equipment and also a necessity for the network. It should be possible to use their equipment, right?"

"President Qin, I think you have some misunderstandings about the network. Let me introduce you. Do you know the concept of bandwidth?" Ren Gong said.

Of course I know about bandwidth. It was commonly seen in optical fibers. The bandwidth was 10M, or even 100M. That speed was really fast!

Wait!

When he thought of this, Qin Guan understood. "Now, we are still using 56K cats?"

Of course, Qin Guan knew that it was impossible to quickly build an Internet and create a specialized network. The only way to make use of the current network was to make use of it. Of course, the most convenient way to make use of it now was to make use of the phone network!

Therefore, to use the phone network to connect to the computer equipment, a conversion device was needed. This device was called a cat. This was the image of the computer equipment. There were mice and cats.

In the future, they used broadband cats. At the very least, they only used a few M cats. But now, if they used ordinary cats, there would only be a few K cats.

If this technology was not improved, it would definitely not be able to popularize the network. Many people bought computers, but there was no Internet. It was just a single computer. In China, it was supposed to be in the New Era. It was only then that the internet started to become more and more popular. It was just a 56K cat.

Now, with Qin Guan's transmigration, his technology must have improved. Now, he should be a 56K cat, right?

"There are not that many. We are using 14. It's just a 4K cat. " Worker Ni said, "If we want to use the current phone network, we can only use this kind of data transmission speed."

Cats were a common term, and the official name was the regulator.

The information in the computer was made up of "0" and "1., 'It was a digital signal that could only be simulated on the telephone line. This way, if one wanted to transmit a signal between the lines of the phone, they would need a device to be responsible for the conversion of the number modules. This was the function of a cat.

It could be traced back to the beginning of the Cold War at the late 40s. At that time, Y Country Air Force needed to find a convenient way to send radar images to the command center. Therefore, they thought of using the phone system to achieve this goal.

With the development of technology, all kinds of agreements were unified. They could be transmitted back and forth between countries, but this rate could not be improved effectively.

If it was military, then they could build a specialized network to increase speed. However, civil use was not possible. They could only rely on telephone lines to carry it out.

With this kind of speed, what could they do?

There was no problem with the words. Even the photos were slow. They would have to wait for a long time. As for the videos, don't even think about it!
