Chapter 251: Deliberation (6) Virtualization
247、
From the program to the raw materials, and then from the raw materials to the program, such repeated experiments and tests have consumed a lot of resources and time, and after a month, that little breakthrough still stays in place and cannot be verified.
Qi Na realized that if he continued at this pace, he was afraid that it would be difficult to gain by this time next year.
But the R&D expenses are spent like water, and it is impossible for the Qilin Wings to last until that time - Lisa is very aware of this problem, how can Qi Na not know the way?!
So what to do?
There must be a new R&D platform, just like they used a design platform like 3D projection + 3D printing last year, to advance the development of robotic arms and Suzaku I robots at the speed of light.
Qi Na's thinking is not a jump, and it is also a very breakthrough thinking, but it is easy to say and not easy to do.
Qi Na went from a chemistry layman to a chemistry expert through the evil one-intelligent brain is such a.
Through a lot of reading and communicating with real experts, he gradually became an industry insider with his own opinions and leading the industry in battery research.
Having an intelligent brain is his advantage, an incomparable advantage for ordinary people, and through it, Qi Na has become a cross-border all-rounder in a short period of time.
However, to make a model software that can replace chemical experiments, it is not possible to know a lot of chemistry knowledge and claim to be a chemical expert.
But Qi Na has an intelligent brain and, of course, an artificial intelligence AI - Peter's help.
All of this is possible.
Qi Na communicated his plans with several university professors who came to support, and they recommended some model software one after another.
After a brief understanding of the architecture of similar software, Qi Na was confident and determined to move forward on the road of making software for virtualized battery experimental models.
But those university professors advised him: it may take three and a half years to develop a software and gather half of the company's strength, especially such highly professional software.
Ke Qi Na asked them rhetorically: "Who said that I want to gather half the company's strength!" ”
Qi Na meant to code most of the code of this software by himself in a week, which surprised the professors and felt that Qi Na was a little crazy in arrogance. Or it's just ****, or the cowhide can't be stretched.
They remembered that the whole country had released satellites decades ago, and then thought that there had been no new product release for Kirin Wings, and they couldn't help but have mixed thoughts: maybe the previous products were fakes released by satellites.
One of the professors was convinced of his judgment and left the Qilin Wings, baffling the Qilin Wings staff who were responsible for receiving and taking care of them.
But colleagues who have worked with Qi Na expressed disdain for the professors' attitude: they can't do it, we can't do it, can't Qi Zong?
Having seen Qi Na's hands hitting the keyboard up and down like playing a piano, and the characters on the screen like mercury pouring down and waterfalls rolling down, no one would doubt Qi Na.
As an insider, Qi Na didn't know anything about these criticisms and admiration, he originally wanted to use the intelligent brain to simulate the model software in his head, but he just simulated the amount of computing in the software, even if his intelligent brain can be compared to a giant computer, but it is still not fully capable of such computing needs.
Even if you forcibly use your intelligent brain, I'm afraid that your body will be paralyzed in ten days and half a month.
It's kind of scary.
Qi Na's eyes were cast on Asakawa 300 kilometers away, where he also had a data center.
At present, the data center has gradually become normal, and there must be documents to enter and exit, and the gate guard is the local armed police force in Asakawa to protect the security of the entire data center.
In the huge single building complex, there is only central air conditioning and the sound of wind through the hall.
In the green wilderness, these huge buildings are slowly expanding around like monsters and have become a local landmark.
The new computer room was still under construction, and Janine became the most powerful person here, far surpassing the mayor.
Such a thin body has such a strength that impresses everyone.
Some people have already said on Weibo that they can see this large area of the building on Google's satellite map.
It has become one of the foundations of LifeOnline's stable service.
It is also Qi Na's quite proud handwriting.
At this moment, it has also become one of Qi Na's most urgent helpers.
Qi Na needed to use servers in the data center, linked together by his operating system, to generate a working cluster, through which he could conduct virtualized battery experiments and simulate the model software.
He immediately contacted Jian Ning, who has now become his spokesperson in the data center, although Jian Ning is not a computer science major, she is smart, hard-working, and has the opportunity to practice a lot, and now she has also become a professional in the field of data centers.
Jian Ning heard about Qi Na's request, and immediately made arrangements, and the 1,000 servers that had just been deployed but had not yet been actually online were assigned to Qi Na.
Qi Na started to deploy the server remotely, he did not use Linux, let alone Windows, but used his own robotOS, not only because he knew the system well, but also by the way to test the scalability of the operating system and the pressure on the network.
At the same time, Qi Na began to write virtual chemical experiment simulation model software, the software is not simply behind closed doors, involving a large amount of data operations, his mathematical reserves are a little stretched, so he visited Ningnan University of mathematics, and cooperated with these masters to set up a mathematics laboratory, specifically to be his mathematical assistant.
It's like gnawing bones, and improving the virtual chemical experiment simulation model software little by little.
Although it has been more than half a month since he talked about it in a week, he finally came out of the prototype.
The senior professors in the battery lab were incredulous when they saw hundreds of thousands of lines of code floating in front of them.
At the same time, Qina deployed the software to a cluster of servers that were already ready to go.
Although it is not as good as the giant servers such as Galaxy and Tiangong, it is obviously not something that ordinary companies have to use thousands of servers at a time, even if they have money, they may not be able to complete these tasks from hardware to software in a short period of time.
After Qi Na revised the software several times, he finally started the first experimental operation.
The scale of this operation was extremely shocking, and Jian Ning was informed, and she knew the importance of this calculation, so she personally sat in the monitoring room of the data center.
I saw that the load gauge on the display was climbing rapidly, almost all the values were soaring red, and the reminders and alarm text messages associated with the operation and maintenance personnel were constantly sent to their mobile phones and rang non-stop.
Jian Ning calmly reminded them of various possible emergency measures, of course, including the integration of more servers, in order to prevent accidents, Qi Na specially made a backup of 500 more servers, and at the same time tested the circuit, at this time, he first decisively invested in cooling measures, through the cold air circulation system for the 1,000 servers to cool down, and then 50, 50 spare servers were merged into the server cluster of the robotOS system.
Finally, when the two hundred servers were merged, the indicators began to fall, and the monitoring data was still strong, but it was no longer red, and Jian Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
In less than three minutes, she received a call from Qi Na, first thanking Jian Ning for her assistance, and then carefully inquiring about various indicators and the status of the backup server.
From his polite tone, Jian Ning sensed how much Qi Na attached importance to this test.
I am afraid that only the things that he cherishes so much will humble him.
Jian Ning and Qi Na didn't say much, and both hung up the phone.
Qi Na is really grateful to Jian Ning, because it is very good that he estimates that there are 800 servers to play a role in this online test, so he didn't care about the 500 servers that Jian Ning made before.
But inadvertently, the entire server cluster has broken through to the limit, if it weren't for Jian Ning's previous arrangement, I'm afraid today's test, the entire cluster would be down.
There were 400 calculation errors, Qi Na didn't feel that he had many failures, and after a little reflection, he checked the data traffic of the server being calculated, and came to the conclusion that the calculation data of the software was too large, and the changes in the operation were too complicated.
The data did not come out until the third day, and this time it was a test, and the conclusion was the same as that of their previous manual experiments, which greatly encouraged all the colleagues, and once again shocked the senior professors, who were wondering if computers could virtualize everything in the future.
Qi Na worked overnight to optimize the software, and then began the first formal experimental calculations.
With the transformation of experimental tools, the process of the whole laboratory has been greatly accelerated, every experiment carried out before is time-consuming, even full of uncertainty, coupled with the explosion that occurred before, some people even have a very serious sense of unease, and now all the operations are all data-based, and these data are calculated through software. Everything seems to be super easy all of a sudden.
After the first experiment was over, and after the results were obtained, the experimental team led by Qi Na held a meeting to discuss all night, and started the second experiment overnight.
As the number of experiments grew, everyone began to look forward to the day when victory would come, and it seemed that all of this was within reach.
With the assistance of Jian Ning, the number of servers increased from 1,000, 1,200, 2,000, and 4,000 to the last 5,000, and the speed of server cluster computing became faster and faster, and the high-speed return of experimental data forced everyone to start to speed up the pace.
Lisa was surprised when she learned that there were 5,000 servers in the Asakawa data center for the Battery Lab project.
Qi Na's work diary wrote that the servers in the data center would be used, but they did not describe it in detail, and Jian Ning's work report was only based on Qi Na's requirements.
Bypassing these vague descriptions, the figure of 5,000 units is really astonishing.
What is the concept of 5,000 units, the national Tianhe-2 supercomputer only uses more than 30,000 CPUs, and the performance and configuration of 5,000 servers are close to, and even the performance of some aspects has surpassed the former Tianhe-1 supercomputer, the first in the world.
Lisa couldn't resist her impulse, stepped on the balance bike and went to find Kina.
The unicorn nest is too big, even if there are bicycles and electric vehicles in the park for employees to ride, but if you want to go at any time or at any time, you still have to count this kind of electric balance bike with one wheel, leaning forward is moving forward, and turning left is leaning left.
On the flat land of the unicorn nest, Lisa galloped by.
It was the end of the day, and the workers and R&D personnel followed the signs on the ground, so that half of the passage was empty. Convenient for other people.
And because Lisa's authority is extremely high, all the green lights in the park are open for her, and everyone stays on both sides of the road to see her beautiful figure, even though it is November, but she is still wearing a long skirt and a flowing white veil, which is really fairy-like.
