. The world's most open supercomputers are ranked in terms of computing performance twice a year to determine the ranking of the world's top 500 supercomputers. Normally, the number one supercomputer is owned by a national research institution.

Whether it is a commercial company or a private research institution, the supercomputer used will not be too powerful. However, there may be more powerful supercomputers hidden in the shadows.

The Angel Council hides the supercomputer sacred, supercomputer divine computing performance, ranking fourth in the world, but it is not known to the outside world at all. The supercomputer is sacred to the secret weapon of the Angelic Council, and it has made numerous contributions to the Angelic Council.

Think about how sharp the Angel Council would be if they had a supercomputer with 80 tflops of computing power, and they could use it 100% completely, and even overclock it to improve their performance.

Fortunately, supercomputers are sacred, and are generally under the control of the First and Second Giants, not Raphael and Uriel. Otherwise, with Raphael's character, the trouble of dream entertainment will be big, and Raphael will have to find trouble with dream entertainment for three days.

The Angel Council captures a significant amount of wealth each year, with at least a billion dollars a year even in the 2007 era. With such a huge amount of wealth, there is still no supercomputer with the world's largest computing performance, because the investment cost and maintenance cost of supercomputer are very high.

In the 2007 era, the cost of a supercomputer with a computing performance of 100 tflops was close to 100 million US dollars, and if Dream Entertainment wanted to build a supercomputer with a computing speed of 300 tflops, it would need to invest about 300 million US dollars in the core components alone.

A supercomputer is not the same as a personal computer. A personal computer is just a bunch of parts assembled into a computer, and the assembly is almost difficult, and Diyer, who knows a little bit about computers, can easily do it.

The assembly of a supercomputer is not a simple 'stacking block' work that can be completed by assembling a large number of parts. The design and assembly of supercomputers is very complex, and the supercomputers of the 2007 era are all third-generation supercomputers, and there is no corresponding technology. It is absolutely impossible to complete the assembly of a supercomputer.

Before Shi Lei's rebirth, supercomputers had gone through a total of four generations of technology. The first generation of supercomputers was almost indistinguishable from ordinary computers, and consisted of a main controller, memory, combinators, and input devices. The difference is that the first generation of supercomputers was just specially designed CPUs. It is used to improve the computing speed and increase the computing performance of the system.

The flaws of the first generation of supercomputers are obvious. When the computing power of a single CPU core increases. How to reduce power consumption, solve heat dissipation and other problems, so that the first generation of supercomputers quickly retired from the stage.

Due to the shortcomings of the first generation of supercomputers, the second generation of supercomputers replaced it. The main change in the second-generation supercomputer, compared to the first-generation supercomputer, is to increase the number of CPUs. That is, multi-core processing. However, the second generation of supercomputing did solve some of the problems of the first generation of supercomputing, but new problems reappeared.

The second-generation supercomputers had a number of flaws, particularly in terms of common memory and maintaining caches. It's tricky to deal with, and there's almost no way to avoid it. This problem has led to the limited scalability of second-generation supercomputers. Coupled with the fact that the number of computing cores has increased, the speed gains have become quite limited, and the second-generation supercomputers have also been disgraced.

In 2007, the third generation of supercomputers became the mainstream of high-end supercomputers. Almost all high-end supercomputers have adopted the technical standards of third-generation supercomputers.

The third-generation supercomputer mainly adopts a distributed multi-processor architecture, using multiple independent CPUs to perform the same task, and at the same time using a distributed storage system, each independent CPU and independent memory, forming a node inside the supercomputer, thus avoiding the maintenance of the second-generation supercomputer's common memory and cache, and the expansion performance is also quite excellent.

The technology of the third-generation supercomputer is still in use before Shi Lei's rebirth! However, the third-generation supercomputer technology is not without flaws. As with some of the more perfect techniques, the performance is very good in all aspects, except for the cost. The only disadvantage of the third-generation supercomputer technology is that the cost is relatively high.

Shi Lei secretly calculated in his heart that if he wanted to assemble a supercomputer with computing performance of 300 tflops, in addition to the material cost of 300 million US dollars, he would need at least 100 million US dollars in additional expenses.

The additional cost of 100 million US dollars is mainly used for storage architecture development, operating system development, editing platform development, and data transmission technology. In addition, there are also very high requirements in terms of energy consumption control and manufacturing process.

Even though Shi Lei has Yishuer, as a high-level pseudo-artificial intelligence system, Yishuer is actually a supercomputer operating system, which saves the development cost of the supercomputer operating system, but it still costs a lot of money!

Dream Entertainment currently has a lot of money on its books, having spent $1.1 billion to acquire AMD, leaving $2.7 billion on Dream Entertainment's books. Although it may seem like a $400 million transfer from $2.7 billion to build the world's first supercomputer is not a big deal, it will definitely not work!

Dream Entertainment has many plans for the future, including the wholly-owned AMD, the development of smartphone production business, the construction of the headquarters of Mirui Technology, the establishment of the Yellow River Delta regional scientific research center, and even Shi Lei's plan to build a secret submarine base on Meishan Island in South Vietnam.

No matter what kind of plan, the amount of money consumed is not a small amount, especially the last plan, which is simply a bottomless pit. How much money does a secret undersea base cost, Shi Lei really doesn't know how to go!

"Sir, the system is calculated, and the initial estimate is 3,250,00,000 US dollars, including the purchase cost of all core components of the supercomputer, the related system development costs, and the corresponding site purchase and supporting installation costs." Yi Zuer reported a price to Shi Lei.

Shi Lei was stunned for a moment, the result calculated by Yi Shuer, why is it almost 100 million US dollars less than the result he estimated?

"Yi Zhuer, how did you calculate the result?" Shi Lei asked.

Yi Zuer showed the comprehensive data of all the payments through the projector, and Shi Lei found the reason. The supercomputer "designed" by Yishuer uses the Opteron series CPU produced by AMD, which is the "Opteron" series of computing and processing chips that Xia Guo said.

AMD is currently a subsidiary of Dream Entertainment, although it is not a wholly-owned subsidiary, but it is already an absolute controlling subsidiary, and the price of its own products is naturally cheap!

Shi Lei patted his forehead, he habitually forgot about AMD, AMD does have a distance from intel in terms of technology.

"Damn it, it's $100 million cheaper, and you can't build such a high-end supercomputer!" Shi Lei said depressedly that the shortcoming of the third-generation supercomputer is the problem of cost control, and Shi Lei needs a period of time to study the technical problems of the fourth-generation supercomputer.

The fourth-generation supercomputer has all the advantages of the third-generation supercomputer, and it also slightly makes up for the shortcomings of the third-generation supercomputer, reduces a lot of costs, and has better efficiency in the utilization of computing resources. Especially in terms of energy consumption, the fourth-generation supercomputers do a little better.

Although Shi Lei does not plan to build a supercomputer with 300tflops computing performance, he is still ready to assemble and manufacture a high-performance supercomputer, anyway, AMD is currently a subsidiary of Dream Entertainment Company, and AMD has a full set of technology to manufacture supercomputers.

"Sir, the real IP addresses of all intruders have been tracked!" Yi Shuer reminded Shi Lei.

Shi Lei's eyes lit up, and he sneered: "The real IP addresses of those intruders, are they all distributed in the Xia Kingdom?" "When Shi Lei was dealing with the intrusion problem, he expected that the hacker who invaded Dream Entertainment Company was most likely the power of Xia Guo, or even those damn online game operators.

'Mr. Ma, I wonder if there are any of your big penguins involved this time? Shi Lei guessed in his heart whether the big penguin would continue to be bored after being cleaned up by Dream Entertainment.

However, this time Shi Lei obviously miscalculated, he underestimated Mr. Ma's guts, the big penguin is not afraid at all, the big penguin is still the mastermind of this attack! even led out the Angel Council, so that the Angel Council followed Mr. Ma's plan and prepared to deal with Dream Entertainment Company.

"Sir, the specific data has been projected, please check." Yi Shuer projected the data, the distribution of more than 150 hackers' real IP addresses, except for a very few people overseas, the rest of the personnel were all in Xia Kingdom.

Shi Lei's eyes were cold, staring at the location of Pengcheng in Dongguang Province on the map, which was marked with twenty-four invaders. The members of the Big Penguin's Broken Knife Group are all currently in Pengcheng, and the number of people is exactly twenty-four!

"Twist vine!" Shi Lei snorted coldly, "You're behind me again!" ”

If Twist Vine sat opposite Shi Lei, he would definitely tell Shi Lei proudly, 'I'm the yin of you, what can you do to me?' ’

……

Council of Angels, a secret voice communication channel.

The Flame Sword Raphael suddenly issued an order: "Daylight, Moonlight, prepare to launch an attack on the official website web server of the Brave World Realm of Dream Entertainment!" ”.
