From black technology to super engineering

Chapter 132 Don't Wait Fifty Years

"That's right, teacher."

Ye Ming knew that Old Tang might have misunderstood it—thinking that he wanted to engage in super calculations like the Light of Taihu Lake.

"My idea is, if conditions permit, we will build a parallel supercomputing machine with the strongest possible computing power." Seeing that Tang was still hesitant, Ye Ming gritted his teeth: "A top-end GPU parallel computing server is also fine."

Professor Tang regained his composure, and when he heard this guy ask for a lowering, he laughed: "Speak clearly, I want you to make a good plan - at least now you have to make it clear whether it is worth so much Money. I mean, than if we go and buy cloud computing space."

"Hmm... It's not safe to buy space." Ye Ming shook his head immediately: "I thought about it before, and I think it's better to store the code and data on my own hard drive for insurance."

"Then what?"

"Then, I want to accumulate some experience for the task allocation of opening up traditional servers and quantum servers in the future."

Ye Ming said some of his thoughts to Old Tang.

To be precise, it was the method he discussed with Ita.

Those who know the hardware of quantum computers best are, of course, Professor Pan and his group. But if anyone understands quantum computer software best... probably it's Ita.

Under Ye Ming's guidance, she deconstructed and thought about "herself" a lot. And finally came to the conclusion that her body should be a quantum computer.

Half a year ago, Ye Ming proposed to Professor Pan a plan to assemble multiple parallel quantum computing units, and they have now completed the production of 50,000 confinement wells—that is to say, the Jiuzhang No. The ability to compute two types of problems.

But this is definitely not the ultimate architecture of quantum computers, nor is it an architecture that can be promoted to commercial and civilian use.

To complete commercial and civilian use, it must reasonably allocate and transform computing tasks, and those high-concurrency tasks cannot be performed by the parallel circuits of the quantum computer itself.

While talking, Ye Ming drew a four-stage frame for Professor Tang on the manuscript paper.

The first is the quantum computing unit, followed by the parallel column of logic gates, then the traditional server, and finally the user terminal.

"For example, there are N simultaneous requests to traditional servers, and the servers will allocate computing tasks, call different numbers of quantum computing units according to the complexity of the tasks, and finally return the results to the terminal. In fact, the current cloud computing architecture It is similar, but the final calculation is not a CPU, GPU, but a quantum computing unit."

"Well, I won't talk about the speed of network response - is there a way for you to completely divide the classical problem into a quantum problem?" Professor Tang is not so easy to be fooled, and immediately pointed out the key to Ye Ming's problem: " Now the road that Lao Pan and the others are taking was proposed by you before. I think that road is very good. As long as the engineering continues to improve, not to mention the nanoscale, even the micron scale, it can also cause quantitative changes to lead to qualitative changes. In fact, now Lao Pan and the others have already started to try new parallel algorithms, and have made good progress in turbulent flow problems..."

Ye Ming nodded. He has been communicating with Academician Pan's team this week. Of course he knows the progress...

It’s just that he still underestimated the scientific community’s “thirst” for computing power.

What is turbulence?

It is a random motion with a vortex structure that the fluid exhibits when it moves at high speed.

Heisenberg - the main founder of quantum mechanics, the proposer of the uncertainty principle and matrix mechanics - once said that he must ask God two questions, one is general relativity and the other is turbulence.

It is also known as the last unsolved problem of classical physics.

You can see how difficult this thing is.

Fortunately, with the birth of computers, especially supercomputers, scientists began to use super computing power to simulate fluids—there is no clever way, but there are always stupid ways.

Therefore, after learning that Jiuzhang No. 3 had completed the sky-defying architecture design, a group of domestic people engaged in turbulence and meteorology flocked to it. Lao Pan is also a warm-hearted person, and he really came up with an idea. Although it is still far from a complete solution to the problem, at least there is a dawn.

"The train of thought can only be said to be immature now, and everything will have to wait until then." Ye Ming smiled and said: "Teacher, I don't think we need to wait for others for fifty years, right?"

Hearing this, Professor Tang was slightly taken aback.

After a while, he laughed: "Yeah! That's right! Well, but let me remind you that the company will pay for the material costs of the foundry soon, and the workshop will also cost money. The money that can be given to you is not enough. More than two million — if you can wait until the end of the year, five million is no problem."

"Besides, you have to talk to Mr. Chen about this matter. It's best to agree to help him take some students."

Ye Ming was startled: "I take it?"

"Otherwise?" Seeing Ye Ming's blank face, Professor Tang shook his head and said with a smile: "Now that you have finished your credits, you are short of a heavyweight thesis and achievement-if you can take it out, the school will give it to you in minutes. professor."

"Eh..." Ye Ming coughed: "Actually, I think this is pretty good."

Professor Tang nodded after being silent for a few seconds: "I also think this is very good. You can get rid of the shackles of professional titles, concentrate on your scientific research, and help the company make some money by the way, which is much better than wearing a hat. As long as you show your achievements Are you afraid that you will not have academic prestige and status?"

...

Saying goodbye to Old Tang, Ye Ming went to find Professor Chen again. Sure enough, Lao Chen didn't stop him, but asked him to bring his two AI graduate students with him when he was working on AI... At the same time, Lao Chen also kindly reminded him that he still had a game to play in May.

Hearing that there was going to be a game, Ye Ming also played tricks on Lao Chen, and asked Lao Chen to help him with the super calculation, so he didn't bother to bother.

In the end, he was scolded out of the office by Professor Chen Xiaofang.

On the way back to the research center, Ye Ming's whole footsteps were floating.

It's such a simple thing to play a game... For three days back and forth, it's like going to the capital to learn more and receive an award by the way.

Back in the office, before his butt was hot, the half-covered door was gently pushed open, and then a girl poked her head out.

"Senior Sister Gu."

The person who came was Gu Qin, a graduate student who joined Old Tang's group last year.

Since Old Tang and Old Chen started their business, the "old people" in the group have basically been dragged to "work"-these people basically graduated without any worries, and they didn't have any psychological burden when they "squeezed".

But for newcomers... firstly, there are courses to learn, and secondly, no results have been produced. Although Jizhi Technology's salary is not low, it is indeed not worth the candle to waste their studies.

Therefore, the main force of scientific research, or the main force of work in the group, is still these newcomers.

For example, this year Old Tang has to recruit four more.

Since she was the main force in the work, Gu Qin and Ye Ming became acquainted.

"Ye Ming, Mo Gu told you to go." Gu Qin pushed the door open a little, revealing the white coat she was wearing.

"Huh? Are you in trouble?" Ye Ming stood up after listening.

"Um."
