Chapter 438: The screen of the little gray man's computer

Computing speed is an important indicator to measure a computer. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In this regard, mechanical computers suffered a lot in the early stages of development.

Electronic computers, operations are mainly related to electronics, so its speed has a natural advantage, and it can also be rapidly improved.

However, mechanical computers, due to their structural characteristics, in the early days, its calculation speed was definitely not fast.

The fact is not surprising to Li Yu, the calculation speed of this mechanical computer has only reached 100,000 times per second.

"It's a bit slow!"

"You're demanding! Wanbai, this is a mechanical computer, all the structures in it are mechanical, and their calculation speed can reach 100,000 times per second, which is already a miracle! ”

Fang Qianmo is right, the calculation speed of 100,000 times per second is not a high speed for an electronic computer, but it is definitely a high speed for a mechanical computer.

You must know that the core of a mechanical computer is composed of mechanical structures, and if the mechanical structures want to perform calculations, there will be a systematic problem.

For example, if the mechanical parts are not polished smoothly enough, then the mechanical parts will run and generate a lot of heat due to friction, which is likely to cause the mechanical parts to be deformed by heat or even damaged parts.

This is just one of the simpler problems faced by mechanical computers. Other lubrication problems, mechanical transmission problems, are even more troublesome.

Therefore, if the little gray man's mechanical computer wants to develop, the road to be taken is much more difficult than that of the electronic computer.

In fact, the little gray man does a good job of this.

In front of Li Yu is already the second-generation mechanical computer of the little gray man, and thirty years have passed since the first generation of the little gray man's computer appeared.

The first generation of mechanical computers, just in terms of floor space, was the size of a football field. It's all too common for coolant to leak and sparks to spark from mechanical parts due to friction.

"Moreover, the little gray men are definitely a smart race, you see their vision of the third generation of mechanical computers, there is already a concept of integration."

"Li Yu, you're not mistaken? Can mechanical computers be integrated? ”

Sun Yixuan had an expression of disbelief.

"That's right, it's just the integration of the little gray man, and the concept is still different from the integrated circuit of the earth."

To tell the truth, after following Li Yu on a journey through the universe, Xiao Wei was almost invincible in cracking the information systems of other civilizations, but in the body of the little gray man, she was rarely deflated.

The mechanical computer, Xiao Wei wants to invade now, there is no place to claw, it is completely powerless against the mechanical computer.

So this time to explore the technology of the little gray man, it was a robot that shot, and Xiao Wei could only watch from the side, and he was addicted to commanding.

However, Xiao Wei has already started to design a transformation plan for his own core, striving to be able to integrate with mechanical computers as soon as possible, so that he will not be at a loss when facing computers similar to mechanical computers again in the future.

Therefore, as soon as Li Yu talked about the future development direction of mechanical computers, mechanical integration, Xiao Wei immediately raised his attention, wanting to see what the hell this mechanical integration was.

"As you know, logic gates are the basic units of integrated circuits, even on photonic computers."

"Nor is the most basic logical concept, and this concept, by extension, can also be established in a mechanical computer."

The mechanical integration components envisioned by the little gray man are to design small precision mechanical components and integrate them together, reducing a large number of repetitive calculations and improving efficiency.

Specifically, a large number of mechanical components on the second-generation mechanical computer are reduced and integrated together to improve the computing speed.

Through the size of the gears and the connection of specific components, these integrated mechanical components are encapsulated, the data is input, and the results are output after the calculation of the integrated parts.

Multiple integrated components, joint computing, of course, will be much more efficient than discrete, single computing modules.

Basically, this is the idea of the little gray man, which is not perfect and has many omissions, but integration is the inevitable development direction of mechanical computers in the future.

To develop mechanical computers, this step is indispensable!

To test the computing speed of the mechanical computer, Lin Wanbai used the terminal in her hand to test through the interface above the mechanical computer.

Therefore, keyboard Lin Wanbai only carried out some dispensable operations. After Lin Wanbai finished testing the computing speed of the mechanical computer, he said something that surprised Lin Wanbai very much.

"Okay, the computing speed has also been tested, let's take a look at its screen, it's also quite interesting."

"Li Yu, you said that this mechanical computer also has a screen? It's there! ”

Lin Wanbai looked at Li Yu with an expression that you are especially teasing me, hoping that it was just Li Yu talking nonsense.

Li Yu was on the mechanical computer of the little gray man, but he sold a lot of passes.

When testing just now, Li Yu didn't tell her that there was still a screen on this mechanical computer.

Fang Qianmo was thoughtfully paying attention to somewhere in the mechanical computer.

"Of course it has a screen, I've said it several times, don't use the thinking of earthlings to measure the mechanical computer of the little gray man!"

"Whoa! That's the screen for it! ”

Looking at the place Li Yu pointed to, Lin Wanbai was stunned at first, and then looked like you wouldn't lie to me.

It is really what Li Yu is referring to, which is a bit subverted Lin Wanbai's three views.

The screen of the little gray man's mechanical computer is so distinctive that it is directly embedded in the mechanical computer. If you have to use the analogy of imagery, then the feeling of a blackboard hanging on the wall.

However, the screen of a mechanical computer, embedded in the shell, is almost integrated, so everyone else ignores its existence.

The screen of the mechanical computer, which is 1.6 meters long and 0.9 meters wide, is gray all over the body when it is not turned on, which is the same color as the shell.

The screen is also composed of mechanical parts, with large bezels arranged with movable mechanical parts.

In other words, the screen of the little gray man's mechanical computer also has a resolution.

Looking at the screen that Li Yu was pointing to, everyone was stunned.

"Huh! Is this the screen? I always thought it was a board."

"That's it, I thought it was a blackboard!"

Fang Qianmo was expected, she asked Li Yu, "Li Yu, can this screen only display black and white?" ”

"That's right! The little gray man is also very talented in metal smelting, and the screen of the mechanical computer, its mechanical parts, is made of special metal. ”

"Our computer uses the principle of the three primary colors, and the computer of the little gray man also uses a similar principle."

"It's just that the little gray man can only divide this metal, from black to white, into thirty levels! The colors displayed are not rich! ”

After speaking, Li Yu clicked on a button-like place at the bottom of the screen, and the screen in front of him changed.

The four corners of the screen, like calm water, are thrown into a stone, stirring up a circle of ripples that spread out to the surroundings, the crests of the waves are black, the troughs are white.

On the screen, the crests and troughs, troughs and troughs, crests and crests begin to confront each other, and gradually, black and white begin to blend together, and the whole process is like a Chinese ink painting.
