Chapter 293: Mutual Hatred

Speaking of this, Meng Wentian deliberately and exaggeratedly said: "Wow——! Teacher Wang, you won't fall in love with me, right?"

Wang Ruxue's face turned pale, and she looked at Meng Wentian with a stunned look.

Meng Wentian was also stunned and asked, "Teacher Wang, is it possible for me to be right......?"

Wang Ruxue jumped up suddenly, slammed her pink fist on Meng Wentian's back, and said, "I told you to talk nonsense, you are saying that I am a madman in disguise, right? Hmph, you are a madman, you are a little crazy old man...... Apologize! You have to apologize to me! Hurry up ......"

Meng Wentian felt a little inexplicable, and felt that her reaction was really a bit excessive. Still, he said, "Okay, I apologize, even though I didn't mean to say you're crazy." …… Actually, even if you are really a member of this organization, there is no need to be so excited, right? Since this organization is formed by a group of computer geniuses, they can recruit you as a member, which means that you are a computer technology expert. You should be proud, why are you afraid? You are not going to overthrow the heads of state. ”

Wang Ruxue also quieted down and said, "I'm not a member of this organization, I'm not qualified." I just think that if these organizations have been established for a long time, then their research will definitely have some results, and there will be some things in it that we can learn from, what do you say?"

Meng Wentian nodded in approval: "That's true, if there is no convincing technology, who will follow it stupidly." Not to mention a bunch of computer geniuses. It's just that ordinary computer masters see that they are talking nonsense, and they have no money to make when they join in, so they have already parted ways. ”

Wang Ruxue seemed to sigh, she picked up the manuscript just now and said: "This paper was made by someone from the DF organization, it is very profound, really." You take a look first. ”

Meng Wentian glanced at Wang Ruxue and said, "Since you say that you are profound, can I understand it?"

Wang Ruxue said: "I don't expect you to understand, you can watch it for a few days first to see what you think." Maybe it will be useful for you to learn computer technology in the future? Anyway, it won't delay you for a few days. ”

Meng Wentian sighed, picked up the manuscript and flipped through the first page, reading the abstract of the paper quickly.

Because it was all in English, Meng Wentian's English level naturally could not reach the point where he could fully understand these professional papers, so he could only look at them with a guess, and after reading for a while, he felt that he couldn't stand it anymore, so he said: "Teacher Wang, this kind of technology is too complicated, artificially refining objects, even to the extent of tiny particles, doesn't it bring tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions of times more computing to computer processing?"

Wang Ruxue said happily: "Yes, your English level can understand so much in such a short time." …… But do you admit that it would be closer to reality if you used this technology for simulation?"

Meng Wentian nodded first and then shook his head: "Not necessarily, it depends on the processing speed of the computer and the programmer's ability to grasp the overall situation." For example, if I punch this table with my hand, the current computer simulation only needs to compare whether the force of my fist is less than or equal to the bearing force of the surface of the table, and if it is less than or equal to the bearing force, we will show that the surface of the table is intact when we simulate. If the force of my fist is greater than the force that the surface of the table can withstand, we will show that the surface of the table is broken, with holes and cracks, how simple it is.

According to this algorithm and principle, we have to calculate one point by one, in addition to the shape of the fist, but also for the point of force on the desktop, calculate the pressure at the moment of contact, calculate how much force each point of the desktop bears, and use the knowledge of mechanics to calculate and judge whether the desktop is non-damaging or let the desktop produce cracks, or let the desktop be damaged and pierced, how troublesome. The amount of computing on computers has increased by an unknown number of times, at least by orders of magnitude. ”

Wang Ruxue asked: "But you will not deny that in this case, the computer simulation is closer to reality." It is precisely because of the large increase in computational data that this paper proposes to introduce the concept of multidimensional arrays into computer hardware to solve the problem. Today's computers tend to be one-dimensional, or at most two-dimensional.

Just like a fist hitting the surface of a table, when the computer calculates, it hits the desktop according to the index knuckle, middle knuckle, ring knuckle, little knuckle knuckle, etc., although the order may not be so, but it must be calculated one by one, rather than hitting the desktop at the same time as in reality, and the computer should calculate these joints at the same time. But because the current computer does not have this ability at all, at most this impact point is calculated, the interrupt is suspended, and then another impact point is calculated, the interrupt is suspended, and then the next impact point is calculated, and the interrupt is ......"

Wang Ruxue gestured with the index finger of her right hand to the fist of her left hand, and continued: "Today's computers rely on these interruptions to simulate reality as much as possible, and it is impossible to be truly the same as reality. For example, when we simulate a person's movement, we also take this kind of rotation or scanning method, first simulating hair floating, then simulating eye blinking, then simulating nose inhalation, then simulating mouth pursing, then simulating chest undulation, and then simulating arm swinging...... , but these actions all happen at the same time. ”

Meng Wentian said with a smile: "As long as the processing speed is fast, the human eye can't find it at all, it looks like it's at the same time, so why bother." Besides, even if your computer processor can use multi-dimensional arrays to calculate at the same time, it is limited, the human body has thousands of points in motion and dozens of organs in motion at the same time......

Wang Ruxue said: "That's better than you taking turns to calculate one after another or from left to right, from top to bottom." ”

Meng Wentian said: "Today's communication technology is time-divided, a small mobile base station, that is, a pair of two trillion transmission lines, can carry the voice data generated by 30 people making calls at the same time. Everyone who made the call took turns to occupy a time slot of two megabyte transmission lines, but none of our callers felt that the conversation was interrupted, saying that the call quality of the phone was not good. Because 8,000 calls are sent to each person every second, if two words are said in one second, each word is split into 4,000 copies and sent to the other party, and the human ears will not feel that the call has been interrupted at all, let alone judge that it has been interrupted 8,000 times per second, and there is no need for a circuit for each pair of callers. ”

Speaking of this, Meng Wentian smiled himself and said, "Hehe, okay, okay, don't mess around with you, I'm just playing with you, in fact, I understand your thoughts." If the functionality discussed in this paper can be realized, even if it is just two or three points at the same time, it will definitely be a technological advance, and the realism of the simulation will be exponentially improved. ”

Wang Ruxue was even more relieved to see that he understood, and said: "What I came here today is that I hope you will study this paper more and see if you can use it in the CG competition of "Xuanyuan Sword Venerable". If successful, won't your CG video look more realistic?"

Meng Wentian was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "That's really the truth. Other people's CG videos can only take turns to process the action, or take the way of scanning, but if I can take the way of concurrent processing, so that multiple actions occur at the same time, it can indeed reflect the actions of the characters more realistically, especially when the two people are fighting, it can show the actions of both of them in one screen like a real movie, it would be cool. ”

As he spoke, Meng Wentian picked up the manuscript and read it seriously, and said, "Hehe, I have to take a good look at this." ”

Wang Ruxue's face was also full of joy, sitting next to him and watching him read the paper.

Just after reading two lines, Meng Wentian couldn't help but say: "This paper is in the same field as the one I saw before, "Thoughts on the Application of Multidimensional Arrays in Integrated Circuits", that is to say, it is more in-depth. ”

Wang Ruxue sneered: "You can take a look again to see if the two of them have the same content." That paper is like a firefly and the sun and the moon, and what that paper says doesn't even cover the surface of this paper. ”

Meng Wentian was stunned for a moment, picked up the manuscript and flipped through it at random, and when he saw the charts, formulas, and schematic diagrams inside, he was startled and said, "Is this a thesis? Hundreds of thousands of words, this should be a monograph." I was dizzy to read the paper "Thoughts on the Application of Multi-dimensional Arrays in Integrated Circuits", and I couldn't understand many things, and there must be more things I didn't understand about this monograph. ”

Wang Ruxue didn't speak, just sneered.

Meng Wentian didn't understand why she sneered at first, thinking that she was pretending to be cool again, and wanted to use this to ridicule.

However, as he continued to read, a cold sweat broke out: where is there more of this monograph that he can't understand, it's just that he can't understand it, it's not simply, but he really can't understand it. The monograph is entirely in English, and it is in obscure professional English.

Meng Wentian, a high school student, has a limited grasp of English vocabulary, and it is good to be able to talk to foreigners in English. What's even worse is that this monograph completely defines a new computer world, which is completely different from the computing architecture he has learned now: it is based on the multidimensional hardware of the processor, and the processor focuses on concurrent processing when processing data.

Anyone who has studied computer science knows that the data processing of a single processor in today's computers is generally serially processed, completing one operation for the next. When the program ape writes the program, it also goes all the way to the program, and when it encounters the need for concurrent processing, it often takes an interruption to stop the currently running program and come back after processing another thing. Or take a conditional statement, and if one condition is met, the processor performs another operation.
