Supercomputing Center, Base 111, Laboratory No. 1!

This is where Ye Fei led the team to work.

At this time, Ye Feizheng was explaining Turing equivalence to the people in the team.

How to derive mathematical algorithms from the mathematical knowledge in Turing equivalence.

Ye Feidao: "The constructivity of partial recursive functions is calculated in the Hopfield network, and it is proved that partial recursive functions are equivalent to Turing machines. ”

"So, the Hopfield net is equivalent to a Turing machine."

"Your next research is around Hopfield nets, partial recursive functions, and Turing machines."

"With that out of the way, we can move on to other parts of mathematical algorithms."

The team includes Ph.D. in computer science, full professors, associate professors, teaching assistants and lecturers from prestigious universities.

At this time, they were like students, holding a notebook to record what Ye Fei said.

If you don't accept it, you can't do it!

In the academic world, there is no order to learn, and the master is the first!

Competence is the only criterion for determining status.

Ye Fei's ability in mathematical algorithms is stronger than them, so they have to listen to Ye Fei obediently.

At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, everyone left the laboratory and went to the cafeteria to eat.

Walking on the road, there were many people who greeted Ye Fei.

Ye Fei has been coming to the supercomputing center for two months, and his ability has been recognized by everyone.

"Dean Guan!" Ye Fei sat opposite Dean Guan with a dinner plate.

As mentioned above, Academician Guan's title in the Supercomputing Center is dean, so he is also called Dean Guan.

"Ye Fei, you're just in time!" Dean Guan said with a smile: "Tomorrow, a group of multinational delegations will come to our supercomputing center for inspection, and when you arrive at the 111 base, you will have to receive it." ”

"Dean!" Ye Fei smiled bitterly: "I haven't done this kind of thing, or you should find someone else!" ”

"I don't think I'll show up, let Professor Sun receive you!" Ye Fei looked at Professor Sun, who was sitting next to Dean Guan, and said with a smile: "He should be experienced. ”

Professor Sun is a professor in the School of Computer Science at Central South University, focusing on data engineering.

At the same time, he is also one of the researchers of Base 111.

In the Supercomputing Center, a large number of professors come from Zhonghu University, Central South University, National University of Science and Technology, and Zhonghu Normal University.

They are both researchers at the Supercomputing Center and university professors.

Here is an explanation of the difference between a researcher and a professor.

A researcher is a researcher who focuses on scientific research, and a professor is a university teacher who focuses on teaching.

Researchers only need to do research, not teaching.

Professors, on the other hand, need both teaching and scientific research, but focus on teaching and scientific research.

University teachers are divided into teaching assistants, lecturers, associate professors, and full professors.

Research personnel are divided into research interns, assistant researchers, associate researchers, and researchers.

Full professors and fellows are equal in rank, assistant researchers and associate professors are equal, and so on.

Professor Sun is a professor who teaches and researches.

Professor Sun is a middle-aged man in his fifties, bald, round and bright, wearing a pair of glasses and always having a smile on his face.

When many people see him, they feel funny and want to laugh.

I heard that because of this image, his students like to listen to him, and listening to his lectures is like watching a sketch.

Professor Sun waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "I can't do it!" ”

As he spoke, he touched the top of his head and said, "I've been very busy lately, and my hair is bald, so I don't have time to entertain these delegations." ”

A few people around him laughed, are you bald? You don't have hair yourself.

"I don't have time!" Ye Fei said helplessly: "I'm also very busy. ”

"You're young, your physical strength is good, it's okay to be busy." Professor Sun said: "In terms of physical strength, I can't compare with you. ”

"Moreover, I'm a bad old man, going to meet these foreigners will damage the country's image."

"You see that you are very handsome, and you will definitely not damage the image of the country."

"Ye Fei!" Dean Guan said: "You are now the person in charge of the 111 base, and receiving the delegation is also one of your job contents. ”

"Moreover, when the time comes, the delegation will definitely ask about the research of the 111 base, and you need to answer this matter in the most detail."

Ye Fei heard Dean Guan say this, and it seemed that he couldn't refuse, so he said helplessly: "Okay, but it won't take me too long." ”

"Half a day at most!" Dean Guan said.

Ye Fei asked, "Do I need to pay attention to anything?" ”

"There's nothing to pay attention to." Dean Guan said: "Be reasonable, well-founded and responsible, not humble, not arrogant, and not ashamed." ”

"Don't leak a word about the technical aspects."

Academician Guan said solemnly: "This is the point. ”

Ye Fei nodded and said, "Which countries are they from, and why did they come to investigate?" ”

"Dongying, Korea, India, Germany, England and France, as well as some university experts in our country."

"The reason why I came to investigate is to find out my country's supercomputing, and also for the upcoming Gordon Bell Prize."

The Gordon Bell Prize is the highest award in the field of high-performance computing applications, which is equivalent to the Nobel Prize for supercomputing.

Beili Kingdom, Xia Kingdom, and Dongying Kingdom, these three countries have the most developed supercomputing, so they have won the most Gordon Bell Prizes.

Among them, Beili won the most awards, followed by Xia Guo.

Dean Guan said: "Most of the Gordon Bell Prizes are divided between Beili Kingdom, Xia Kingdom and Dongying Kingdom every year. ”

"Therefore, the supercomputing of these three countries is of concern to other countries."

"In fact, not many countries care whether they receive the award or not, but supercomputing reflects a country's scientific and technological strength and comprehensive strength."

"And many countries like to hide their clumsiness when it comes to supercomputing, especially our Xia country."

"The number of supercomputers in Xia Guo is the first in the world, and only one supercomputer is used to win awards at a time, no one knows how many supercomputers there are in Xia Guo and which one is the strongest."

"The same goes for other countries!"

Ye Fei nodded, and said in his heart: "It's really an old yin ratio." ”

Dean Guan said: "The award-winning supercomputing power does not reflect the supercomputing power of a country, so there is an inspection group to find out the supercomputing power of various countries. ”

"Of course, countries will definitely not let them inspect at will, the strongest strength is hidden, this time let us let them inspect here."

Ye Fei smiled: "This is because the above thinks that our strength is not strong!" ”

"Yes!" Dean Guan nodded: "Our supercomputing is only 109 million times, not to mention compared with my country's fastest Shenwei Taihu Light, even compared with Tianhe-1. ”

"Hmm!" Ye Fei nodded.

The number of floating point operations of Sunway Taihu Light reached 1.254 billion times, and the number of floating point operations of Tianhe-1 reached 257 million times.

Of course, this is data from many years ago, and no one knows how much it is now.

However, it is estimated that the number of floating point operations of the light of Sunway Taihu Lake should reach about 1.3 billion times, and the number of Tianhe-1 should be about 500 million times.

Professor Sun said: "If you want to say that the light of Shenwei Taihu Lake is the fastest in the country, I don't think it will be soon. ”

"Isn't it?" Ye Fei asked: "Is there a supercomputer in my country that is faster than the light of Shenwei Taihu Lake?" ”

"Yes!" Professor Sun nodded: "My country is about to build the ninth supercomputing center in Jiangcheng, Shennong Tianshu. ”

"The number of floating-point operations is expected to reach 5.643 billion billion!"

"5.643 billion times!" Ye Fei said in surprise: "So much faster than the light of Shenwei Taihu Lake?" ”

The number of floating point operations of the light of Shenwei Taihu Lake is 1.254 billion times, and Shennong Tianshu is 4.5 times that of it.

"Yes!" Professor Sun said.

Ye Fei was amazed, the development of supercomputing is changing with each passing day.

In 2010, Tianhe-1 was the world's fastest speed.

In 2015, the light of Sunway Taihu Lake appeared, reaching a speed of 1.254 billion times, 4.8 times that of Tianhe-1.

An increase of 4.8 in five years, terrifying!

Supercomputing reflects the science and technology of a country, and it can be seen from this that in five years, Xia Guo's science and technology have improved very quickly.

And now there is Shennong Tianshu, with a speed of 5.643 billion times, which is 4.5 times that of the light of Shenwei Taihu Lake.

It's an increase of 4.5 times in eight years, and it's still terrifying!

Dean Guan said: "Don't be too surprised, there is still a big gap between my country's supercomputer and Beili Guo, the cutting-edge supercomputer of Beili Guo, reaching 11 billion times, the only E-level supercomputer in the world." ”

"So fast?" Ye Fei's glasses widened in surprise.

Shennong Tianshu supercomputing is already fast, and the cutting-edge supercomputing is faster, 1.9 times that of Shennong Tianshu, and 5.357 billion times higher than Shennong Tianshu.

Ye Fei smacked his tongue, this is too terrifying.

"Of course, don't raise the enemy's morale and destroy your own prestige." Professor Sun said: "One day, my Xia country, supercomputing will be the world's No. 1 for many years, and far ahead of the world's No. 2. ”

These words are also the voices of countless supercomputing center people in Xia Kingdom, and they are also the voices of scientists in Xia Kingdom.
