Chapter 529: IBM's Supercomputer
"You follow me......" Lu Yang said to his family. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In order to reassure others, Lu Yang was the first person to get off the plane except for the mecha team. Of course, this is also because he is very comfortable and understands the Type 18 spacesuit. Before the official finalization, Lu Yang asked people to test this spacesuit for a long time, if not, how could he use it with confidence?
The mecha team got off the plane quickly, and they all jumped off the platform more than ten meters high. After that, Lu Yang took his family and Su Yan's family to the lifting platform, and then got off the plane in turn.
Lu Yang They didn't wear a mecha and couldn't jump down from a height of more than ten meters, but when they were three meters above the ground, Lu Yang turned over and jumped down lightly. He himself is about 70 kilograms, and the Type 18 spacesuit plus oxygen supply and anti-low temperature equipment is about 100 kilograms, with a total weight of 170 kilograms. And the gravitational pull of the moon is one-sixth of that of the earth, that is to say, Lu Yang beats on the moon, and the impact force of falling is equivalent to the impact force of 30 kilograms on the earth.
This impact, let alone three or five meters, even if it is ten meters, Lu Yang himself can withstand it, not to mention that he is still wearing a spacesuit.
Lu Yang's action of getting off the plane was transmitted to the interior of Space One, and everyone saw him beckoning.
"What a beautiful move!"
"No problem, it looks safe!"
"Lu Yang's family has gone down, let's go down too!"
With the demonstration of Lu Yang's family, the passengers began to get off the plane in an orderly manner, while the mecha team paid close attention to the various lifting platforms, and if something went wrong, they would rush over to deal with it immediately.
"Dad, is this the Xuanyuan Sea base?" Xingxing asked, looking at a large area of buildings on the left.
The surface of the moon is close to a vacuum, and sound cannot be transmitted, and everyone can only talk through the communication system that comes with the spacesuit. And the communication system of the Type 18 spacesuit is very special, using a realistic chat system, the louder a person's voice, the more people around you can hear, and when you whisper, only the person next to you can hear. In this mode, there is no difference between everyone talking and chatting and on earth.
Of course, this is only one mode, and there is also a full-range chat mode that allows you to talk directly to everyone.
"Yes, this is our base!" Lu Yang said with pride.
In front of Space One, 60 engineering robots provide lighting for everyone, and the airport is like daylight. Although the Type 18 spacesuit has an intelligent temperature control system, which can control the temperature within a suitable range, passengers who get off the plane still feel cool.
"It's so desolate, it feels like the Great Northwest." Feng Ya sighed.
Feng Ya jumped lightly, and with the addition of the Type 18 spacesuit, she actually jumped 3 meters high.
"Mom, I'm flying!" Feng Ya shouted excitedly, fortunately, the spacesuit could automatically maintain her balance, otherwise she would definitely fall.
"Yaya, danger!" Su Yan hurriedly came over, but she obviously did not adapt to the gravity of the moon, and she stepped out two meters away, and her flying posture was like a light skill in a Chinese costume drama.
After Feng Ya landed, she jumped up again: "This is fun......"
Passengers have all disembarked one after another, and the originally empty airport seems a little crowded. Some people saw Feng Ya jumping up and down, and couldn't help but try it too, I have to say that it was too easy to jump high on the moon, and some even jumped 6 meters high!
Seeing the figures flying everywhere, the strangeness that everyone had because of their first arrival on the moon disappeared all at once, and the atmosphere at the scene became warm.
"Dad, I'm going to play too!" Star said.
"Okay, you just jump, Daddy will pick you up below!" Lu Yang said loudly.
The star no longer had any scruples when he heard it, and he jumped more than three meters in a slight jump, Lu Yang caught him with a smile, and then threw it into the air, he had great strength, and he was wearing an 18-type spacesuit, and easily threw the star to a height of more than ten meters, and Zhu Xiaotong, who was looking at it, changed his face.
"Husband, be careful!"
Lu Yang looked back and smiled: "It's okay, look at me!" ”
When the stars were about to set, Lu Yang jumped up lightly and caught him easily, looking like a juggler.
Far away on Earth, more than 2 billion people are staring at television. Since the takeoff of Space One, the live broadcast of the lunar trip has not been turned off. However, in order to protect personal privacy, you will not be allowed to interview without the consent of the passengers.
It's different on the moon, because everyone is wearing spacesuits and can't see clearly, so there is no limit to the shots. Spectators on Earth can clearly see the door of Space One open, and ten mechs jumping from it.
"What's going on?"
Viewers on Earth see the tourists who get off the plane jumping up and down one after another, and there is a feeling that the style of painting is changing too quickly.
"It's so high, it has to be more than 3 meters......"
"What is 3 meters, you look at the one on the left, I see that the jump is 5 meters high!"
"This is tall, more than 6 meters by visual inspection, and the landing is still so stable, looking at the body size is still a fat man, a good cow!"
"Wow, that kid flew more than ten meters high, it's amazing......"
"The gravity of the moon is only one-sixth of that of the earth, and a person who lands on the moon can fly the eaves and walk the wall!"
"If you can go to the moon, the cheapest ticket will be 18 million."
"Alas, everything on Penglai Island is very good, but it is expensive, everything is expensive, and the air ticket is especially expensive......"
"Come on Lu Yang, realize space immigration as soon as possible, so that ordinary people can also have the opportunity to enter space!"
After playing for a while, Lu Yang led everyone up the hill in front of the base, because the sunrise was about to start.
Watching the sunrise from the moon is one of the items of this trip.
……
At IBM's headquarters in Amunk, New York, hundreds of people are testing a supercomputer.
"Dr. Cosese, is the Swift supercomputer performing as expected?" IBM Chairman Francis asked, next to Dr. Mark Cosis, the head of the Swift supercomputer.
The Swift supercomputer is a joint development of IBM and Intel, Microsoft, Facebook and other high-tech companies, and the project started two years ago, with the aim of building an exascale supercomputer in the United States and providing strong support for subsequent technical research.
The partners of the project are all well-known large companies in the world, and there is also the figure of the United States government behind the project, after concentrating funds and technical teams, in just over two years, the Swift supercomputer project has made a major breakthrough. In the process, Intel developed new Xeon chips.
"Mr. Francis, according to our tests, the peak computing speed of the Swift supercomputer exceeded 12 billion times per second, and the sustained calculation speed was 10.1 billion times per second, which fully met our expectations. Now, the Swift supercomputer is already the most powerful supercomputer on the planet, and even the mythical supercomputer of Huaxia is not as good as ours! Mark Corseis said excitedly.
The scene was cheering!
"Great, we finally have an exascale supercomputer too!" Francis said excitedly.
"However, the energy consumption of the Swift is much larger than that of the Mythical Supercomputer...... "I have visited the Mythical Supercomputer, and their layout and calculation method are very different from ordinary supercomputers, and the volume and energy consumption of the entire supercomputer are much smaller than that of traditional supercomputers." In this regard, there is still a big gap between Swift and Mythical Supercomputing! ”
"You're saying that in terms of hardware and software, our Swifts can't compare to the mythical supercomputer?" Francis was upset.
"That's true." Mark shrugged, "Although the peak computing speed of mythical supercomputing is not as fast as ours, in many ways, their technology is revolutionary ......"
"Either way, this is the first result of our collaboration, and it is also the result that will shock the world!" Although Francis didn't like Mark's words, he knew that the reality was like this, and he no longer dwelled on it, "All countries are studying exascale supercomputing, but we are still one step ahead after all." The United States is still the most technologically advanced country, and IBM is still the best company in the world! ”
Soon, the news that IBM had developed an exascale supercomputer spread all over the world, and this achievement was praised by the Western media as "breaking China's monopoly in the field of supercomputers". Before the Swift supercomputer, there was only one exascale supercomputer in the world, and that was the mythical supercomputer. In fact, the mythical supercomputer has been born for more than three years.
Before the mythical supercomputing, the world's supercomputers had not exceeded one billion times, and a year later, Huaxia's Shenwei Taihu Light supercomputer exceeded one billion times, which shows the gap. After the mythical supercomputer was put into use, Huaxia has achieved an explosion of technology in many fields, which shows the huge role of supercomputers in the field of scientific research.
Since 2015, for several years in a row, the mythical supercomputer has firmly occupied the top position of the global supercomputer list, and other supercomputers and it are not at the same level at all. Stimulated by China, other countries have begun to research exascale supercomputers, and in this regard, the people of the United States are the fastest. With deep technical accumulation and high-quality computer talents, after the cooperation of several major technology companies, in just over two years, they have achieved leapfrog development and developed the Swift supercomputer.
"The United States regains its computer supremacy!"
"IBM, Intel and other companies have justified the name of the United States!"
"The Chinese mythological supercomputer lost the first throne, and the second exascale supercomputer was born in the United States!"
……
"Mr. Ye, there has been a breakthrough in the research of supercomputers in the United States......," Ye Wenbing's secretary saw the news and specially reminded him.
Ye Wenbing turned on the computer and browsed the relevant news.
"Mi Guoyan really has no knowledge, it's just a supercomputer ...... exascale times" (to be continued.) )
