How long will it take to build a supercomputer with stronger computing power than Shenwei Taihu Lake light?

A: a week.

And it can be put into use in a week.

This is a very incredible answer. I'm afraid no one would think that a supercomputing would be completed in such a short time.

Because this is not a personal computer. It takes several hours to assemble a personal computer. How can a supercomputer be so fast?

Because of the terrible power, heat dissipation and other related systems required by supercomputing, Google's parent company once released a data in 2015. The power used by their company in one year of supercomputing is almost the same as that used by a city in San Francisco!

What concept?

The energy consumption of supercomputing is extremely terrible.

As for why it can be built in such a short time, it is because of four words, strategic reserve!

Many people don't know that for a country, strategic reserves are not just frozen pork, grain, weapons and ammunition, crude oil and energy.

Strategic reserves include all aspects, as well as supercomputing.

The reason why reserves are over calculated is very simple. Modern wars and national defense networks all need the support of over calculation and large data centers.

These places are also the key targets of the enemy in wartime, and the concept of strategic reserve is that when these places are destroyed by the enemy, the country can re assemble a set of supercomputing in another place in the shortest time, which is strategic reserve!

It's not that you need to buy chips for assembly. The cauliflower is cold.

In fact, all kinds of chips in the country had reserves before the United States did not restrict imports. Of course, there would not be too many chip reserves, and some chip reserves were like frozen pork. With the progress of science and technology, the old and the most advanced new chips would be released at any time.

For example, military satellites and launch vehicles that can launch satellites actually have strategic reserves. If there is an urgent war demand, they can be assembled and launched in the shortest time.

At ordinary times, these things are produced only after someone places an order.

Of course, the launch vehicle you ordered may not be the one launched at that time.

After all, it is normal to update the appropriate inventory. The reserve rockets that have been stored for one or two years are pulled out for you to launch, and the ones you place an order for production are re placed for reserve.

In fact, the state reserves many things beyond the imagination of ordinary people. The state reserves many things you have never thought about.

Moreover, strategic reserves not only exist for war preparedness, but also serve as a stable market in other emergency times. It is possible.

For example, some shameless manufacturers immediately announced that their factories were on fire after the price of some chips plummeted.

Moreover, there are reserves not only in the parts of supercomputing, but also in the secret bases set up by supercomputing.

These bases can be delivered at any time at ordinary times, but they are sealed and unused, and ordinary people do not know their existence. When necessary, they will be put into operation immediately.

Relevant infrastructure such as power, national defense network and so on are ready, and will be checked at regular and fixed points to make it available at any time.

This time, the Supercomputing Center required by Jiang Yanhai has enabled such a location.

When it was assembled and running, it took a week. Jiang Yanhai didn't know how many hardware engineers and different types of work were used this week. He didn't even need to go to the site.

Because the base has a special person in charge responsible for its operation and security, and Jiang Yanhai just need to use the ultra-high-speed national defense optical fiber network to connect with it remotely. They don't even need to know where it is.

As for this supercomputing system, naturally, it will not use any known system, but directly use the two egg subroutine. Although the two egg subroutine can exist based on any other program, it is not necessary.

Jiang Yanhai's computer strength has long been obvious to all, so there is no need to hide anything about the computer system.

Moreover, it is very simple for the subroutine of two eggs to control a super. For other users, they will not find any discomfort, which is very similar to all the systems they have used in the past.

However, if professionals can view the underlying source code of the whole system, they will find that it is different from any system they have used.

This is the power of subroutines.

When the supercomputing component is completed, the subroutine enters it and starts to connect with the two eggs, the first department to use here is not other departments, but Li ruobai's department.

This week, Li ruobai naturally knew what Jiang Yanhai was going to do, so now they are located in the chip research institute in Jiangcheng. At present, the Institute in charge of Li ruobai is the research institute with the highest progress in independent chip research and development in China, and even far exceeds other research institutes.

The program written by Jiang Yanhai is of great interest to Li ruobai because they have many new designs, but unfortunately, these new designs can only stay in the drawing stage because there is no lithography machine to produce them, so there is no way to carry out production testing, and laboratory production can not do it.

Because the production performance required by its design is 3 nm production technology.

But with Jiang Yanhai, this program is different, and this program has extraordinary significance for the research of lithography machine, because you can test it freely, and in reality, it means a lot of money! Because the research and development of new chips is really a huge amount of money.

Therefore, other experiments have not been told to various research institutes for the time being, and Li ruobai's Research Institute is the first to test this program named Pangu because of its unique conditions.

The reason why it is named Pangu is that if it really has the effect that Jiang Yanhai said, it is really no different from Pangu creation, but the only difference is that it is used in scientific research simulation calculation.

At the moment, Jiang Yanhai is also in the Institute. He is with Li ruobai. At the moment, the computers in front of all their teams have the permission to connect Pangu supercomputing. After they complete the connection, there is a forest picture in their computer program. When this appears, all scientific researchers are stunned.

Because it... Looks like a movie. What does it have to do with scientific research?
