Atletico Madrid's AIPC is certainly not the AIPC that flooded TV shopping 5 years ago, and was later used by the two-dimensional UP master to develop into ghost animal video material.

In fact, even that deceitful AIPC is not completely useless.

For example, its designers are very innovative to first apply the technology found in mobile devices such as mobile processors, small screens, and even flash memory to traditional laptop designs, creating an ultra-light, ultra-small, ultra-power-saving and ultra-portable small form factor notebook.

And this innovative approach, but also a few years later by its "partner" Microsoft imitation, Microsoft later launched the SurfaceRT tablet, also uses ARM CPU and flash chip storage, specifically for the RT version of the WinRT system does not use the Wince core, but also runs on the ARM instruction set of the relationship makes the two have a lot of similarities.

And although the Surface is a tablet, it is also equipped with a detachable keyboard holster by default, and the use experience is very close to a small laptop like AIPC. After all, there is no keyboard and mouse operation, so I'm embarrassed to say it's Windows?

So, can it be said that AIPC is the innovator of netbooks and the uncle and grandfather of Luxfit RT?

The answer, of course, is no!

AIPC, known as a mini notebook, has a huge difference between its experience and that of a laptop in the usual sense, but the advertising campaign is frequently and repeatedly generalized, deliberately misleading the audience and consumers, which is why it has become a ghost animal video material.

Therefore, it is not a good product to do with heart, it is completely a profiteer posture who runs away after making a handful. This can be seen from the fact that the words Samsung, Microsoft, and the world's top 500 companies have been emphasized many times in the advertisement, but they have not mentioned their own manufacturers.

AIPC's pre-installed Wince system has the same user interface as XP, but because of the different processor instruction set, it is naturally immune to X86 viruses. However, correspondingly, the software of the CE platform also needs to be developed separately, and the number is pitiful.

As for the APEC anti-drop protection system advertised in AIPC, it is even more nonsense.

In fact, mobile phones that are very similar to AIPC are not afraid of falling, but as the body becomes thinner and thinner, and the screen gets bigger and bigger, the mobile phone's anti-drop ability falls down slowly, and what is broken is only the screen glass.

In other words, when Jobs launched a large-screen straight smartphone, in addition to South Korea's LG and other manufacturers followed and even released it first, the giants represented by Nokia were watching jokes on the side, thinking that the phone was too unsturdy to be popular, and the result was naturally a slap in the face......

LG was able to come up with a similar straight smartphone, LGPRADA, a few months before the release of Apple's iPhone 1, because they had a patent search department.

In order to protect their products, manufacturers often have to apply for patents for the technology they use. And because there is a "first-come, first-served" rule for patent granting, it is naturally impossible to hold back and wait until the product is completely finalized and then apply for it together. If someone preemptively registers some key patents, it is definitely worse than eating flies.

So Apple frantically bit Samsung and sued him for infringing on its own rounded rectangular patent, but it never provoked LG, and although LG also claimed that the iPhone 1 generation copied them, it did not really resort to law.

Large companies have a dedicated patent search department, which is responsible for regularly searching the publication of global patent applications within a specified range, which is basically the norm. The intelligence obtained through patent analysis is much more reliable than the so-called commercial espionage piecemeal.

These open patent portfolios can not only expose the R&D direction and future business plans of the opponents, but also allow those innovative and dynamic small start-up companies to enter the field of vision of the giants, and then naturally pay attention to them and choose to acquire or follow the trend at the right time.

This is also the reason why large companies often get a bunch of junk patents out, on the one hand, they can cover up and play a role in confusing the eye, and on the other hand, the relaxed patent examination mechanism also enables large companies to use junk patents to occupy the pit. In the future, if there is new progress and new money in this field, we will have a foothold in the composition of these junk patents, whether it is to continue research and development, or to be a patent troll, or to maliciously harass related companies, it is all offensive and defensible.

This set is also applicable in the academic world, academic papers and patents are intellectual products, both have intellectual property rights, and there are also first-come, first-served rules. International hot projects, such as stem cells, neuroscience, genomics and other fields of research teams such as Ganges Sands, everyone is racing against time to conduct research, competing for papers to occupy the academic commanding heights.

Unlike patents, academia is much more restrictive about junk papers.

For example, in the United States, except for a few inventions that are expressly inadmissible such as perpetual motion machines, basically anyone can apply for a patent with their own brain, even if the invention is ridiculous and unrealizable, anyway, for every additional patent, you have to pay an extra patent application fee.

The readers of academic papers are peers in the field, and their technical strength and vision are naturally not comparable to those of the civil servants of the Patent Examination Board. When encountering new ideas and new theories in the field of concern, if conditions permit, it is natural to do experiments according to the prescription, and only after careful verification can you choose to believe, and many academic frauds are debunked in this way, after all, what is fake is fake.

In January this year, Haruko Kobokata, a 30-year-old beautiful scientist from Japan, published two papers in the world's three authoritative scientific journals "Nature" at the same time, saying that she created STAP cells with stem cell function by processing ordinary somatic cells.

As soon as the news came out, all walks of life suddenly looked sideways, young female doctors, beautiful scientists, Nobel Prizes, somatic cell cloning, autologous organ transplantation, amputated limb regeneration and blindness, the imagination space in this is too big!

Professor Shinya Yamanaka of Kyoto University in Japan won the Nobel Prize in 2012 for the discovery of functionally similar iPS cells (induced pluripotent stem cells), so this new discovery immediately became a favorite of the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine.

However, before the Japanese could expect and be excited about their beautiful scientist about to win the Nobel Prize, the bad news came.

Paul Newperler, an American biology authority, said that he had redone Kobokata's experiment in the laboratory, but the conclusions were not reproduced, so he submitted a paper to the journal Nature to express doubts.

In April, the RIKEN Research Institute, where Kobokata works, found that Kobokata had committed fraud, demanded that he be dismissed from the paper, and recovered his research funds. Even so, the Japanese media, who felt ashamed, pursued the entire project team so violently that her mentor, boss, and co-author Yoshiki Sasai eventually hanged herself.

Although the students cheated, the boss was abused and questioned because of this, and the final death was obviously beyond the boundary, but I have to admit that 19 people in Japan have won the Nobel Prize in the natural science category, which is not unrelated to this more serious and crazy attitude.

As a commercial research institution, the Bee Research Institute also has its own comprehensive academic paper and patent search system, and a variety of information channels allow Atletico and his subordinates to keep track of the world's scientific and technological trends.

AIPC for soccer training is the result of this system.

In fact, this name is only tentative, after all, both AIPC and PC are too famous, the former is notorious and reduced to a joke, and the latter is a registered trademark of IBM, which is not a good object to provoke.

In 2005, IBM sold the unprofitable ThinkCentre desktop and ThinkPad notebook business to Lonovo, but the trademark ownership of "IBMPC" was still retained, but it was out of print.

Speaking of which, as consumer electronics, PCs and mobile phones are price-sensitive products, and the cost of production determines whether they make money or not. So they are also the pioneers of industrial transfer in the IT field, and now most of the world's PC and mobile phone production capacity is in Asian countries, and has entered at least three transfers, first Japan and South Korea, then Taiwan and land, and now this is Vietnam, Thailand and India, just to pursue lower wage costs.

However, Apple, Dell, HP and other companies have chosen to cooperate with Asian foundries to reduce costs, while IBM, which is a big business, has directly chosen to sell its PC business, and this year's X86 server business has also been sold, and even its own proud PO and SPARC have engaged in open licensing. Of course, the reason for this is that the power scenery is no longer there, and the blue gene supercomputer based on this used to be based on various scenery, and now 88% of the supercomputing market is intel-in private de, and even the three major game consoles have abandoned it one after another.

The name of the Atletico version of AIPC is actually a direct combination of AI artificial intelligence and PC personal computer, indicating that this is a computer that focuses on artificial intelligence applications.

Unlike PT and Bee Server, which uses the Bee Heart processor, AIPC uses a truly original architecture processor, which he named the IPU, which is an abbreviation for IntellectiveProces Private NGUnit Intelligence Processor.

Different from the current software and hardware technologies under the banner of "smart intelligence", the IPU really incorporates artificial intelligence into the main design goal from the principle level, and is a processor specially designed for the field of artificial intelligence.

It can be seen from its similar name to the CPU central processor and GPU graphics processor that Atletico Madrid has the ambition to make it the heart of the computer. However, this semiconductor chip that imitates the human brain has not yet been mass-produced, which is why Atletico Madrid is not in a hurry to launch AIPC and Crazy Football Training Edition, which is really impossible for concubines to do!

The human brain is one of the most complex systems in the world, and although everyone has it, we still don't know enough about it.

It is generally believed that the human brain has tens of billions of nerve cells, which in turn connect with each other through 1,000 to 10,000 synapses to exchange information, which makes the human brain have very powerful computing power. Some say it's an electronic computer that is equivalent to billions of operations per second, while others say it's 100 million billions per second.

The speed of billions of times per second was naturally astronomical when supercomputers were first invented, but now it is just the standard of ordinary desktops, and even high-configuration mobile phones can be achieved, such as the floating point arithmetic power of Bee 5 fan NI/5+ has reached more than 5 billion times per second, and some users have designed their own 5D is piled up with a terrifying number of 10 billion times per second.

Of course, the 10 billion floating point of mobile phones is basically meaningless, first, the full-power running battery will strike, and second, there is no special application.

The mobile phone is faster, and the supercomputer is naturally faster. The world's No. 1 milk road 2 has a peak computing speed of more than 300 million times per second.

However, this speed is the effect of 16,000 computing nodes at full firepower, and the computing nodes are turned on on demand in daily use.

After all, if all are turned on, the power consumption can soar to more than 17 megawatts, that is, 17,000 kilowatts, so that the Yangcheng Supercomputing Center needs to cooperate with the water company to use municipal tap water to cool it.

In contrast, the human brain, which is also known as "hundreds of billions of processes per second", has a peak power consumption of no more than 25 watts, and can be cooled and cooled by blood circulation.

The basis of electronic computers is semiconductors, which are substances with a resistance value between conductors and insulators. Because of the higher resistance, when the power is on, a significant portion of the electrical energy will be used to overcome the resistance, and eventually become heat and be dispersed to the outside of the circuit.

Unless semiconductors are eliminated and the light brain era is entered, computer heating cannot be avoided.

There are other options to alleviate this problem, such as the establishment of data centers at high latitudes, by the sea, and the use of cool breezes and seawater cooling systems.

Like the brain, designing a new computer is also a solution.

Modern computers are all von Neumann structures, which are composed of five parts: input and output devices, combinators, controllers, and memory. Memory is increasingly becoming a weak point of the system.

Each time the combinator operates to read and write data from memory, the memory bandwidth becomes a system bottleneck and more energy consumption.

The solution is a memory computer with its own memory like a brain cell.

Instead of using memory devices such as memristors, memory sensors, and memory containers in the research stage, Atletico Madrid's IPU uses a silicon chip made by a brainwave printer, which has 128 cores and its own high-speed memory, which can greatly enhance the ability of fuzzy judgment with special algorithms. The only problem is that the structure is too complex to mass-produce. For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
