On June 20, 2012, the news of the joint press conference of Harvard University, Intel and ibm in the United States caused a sensation around the world. The theme of this press conference was the development direction of future supercomputers, and everyone's eyes were attracted. The girl looked at their theme and felt that they were a little confused. However, thinking about it carefully, it should be that so far, although the supercomputers of Future Technology Group are three to four times faster than those of the outside world, the girl was hiding very tightly at the time of the problem, and everyone did not know the exact data. However, it did not prevent them from understanding these from other channels. Although they did not get much exact information about the computing speed, it should be said that they still had some vague news. For example, the two supercomputers ordered by China from Future Intelligent, a subsidiary of Future Technology Group, had at least 50PFLOPS calculation speed, which means that the future intelligent supercomputers are twice as fast as them! (This data is a smoke bomb released by China).

Now some major countries are starting to worry. In order to catch up with this disadvantage, the United States sent people to Intel and ibm, with the purpose of allowing them to build the fastest supercomputer. However, under the current circumstances, the energy of ordinary electronic CPUs has reached the limit. That is to say, if there is no way to improve the process, if you want to increase the computing volume of supercomputers, you can only add more hardware, but it does not mean that you can add as long as you want. Every time you add hardware, you need to design optimization.

It can maximize its effectiveness. If you want to achieve the computing volume of a supercomputer like in the future, you still need to add more than twice the hardware on the original basis, which is close to 100,000 CPUs and GPUs. In fact, this is not worth the effort, and the design difficulty is also greatly increased. Everyone knows that increasing the computing volume requires adding as much hardware as possible, but if you simply add more hardware, you can build up the computing volume. Computers with infinite computing data have long appeared in the world. Obviously, simply superimposing hardware is not advisable.

Now they know the calculation volume of 50PFLOPS or above in the future intelligence side. So what is the best way to increase this calculation volume? First, obtain information about future intelligent supercomputers and imitate it. Second, redevelop another supercomputer to achieve the purpose of achieving or even exceeding future intelligence. Obviously, this press conference is to announce the direction they want to study. The reason why their media attention is that although they don’t know what the current supercomputer is like in the future intelligent modern era, it is certain that the current supercomputer technology is very powerful. According to the statement that it can be updated every December, the computing volume of future intelligent modern can reach at least 30PFLOPS computing speed. As a pioneer in computer technology, Americans feel that it is very unhappy to be surpassed by others. You should know that the ibm supercomputer once dominated the world, and now, Intel and the once strongest CPU manufacturer, are finally going to take action.

This grand press conference attracted the attention of the whole world. Everyone knows clearly what happened between Intel and Future Intel. Now that Intel makes moves, everyone may not be thinking about watching the fun. Today's CPU manufacturers, although there are no future intelligent products in foreign countries, they have great powers and have tried their best to experience the future intelligent nanoion CPU and believe that future intelligence has surpassed Intel. Of course, everyone is tacitly aware of it. You must know that after demonizing China for so many years, the white world cannot make the white world think that China has become more advanced than them.

Now the alliance between Intel and ibm is very surprising, but it also makes sense. As well-informed media people, everyone knows that with the growth of time, threats from the East have begun to become stronger and stronger. In order to curb China's rise and curb the pace of future intelligence going to the world in the future, Intel and ibm have begun to work together. It can be said that it can turn the entire electronics market to a huge upswing.

What attracted the attention of the girls was that the cooperation between them was investigated and provided by the US government to allow them to participate willingly. If this chip was not wrong, it was to develop some important research results on electronics from official secret laboratories. As long as they work together to curb China, these materials will be fully opened in the early stage. It can be said that they are very attractive bargaining chips for both parties. In addition, the speed of future intelligent development has seriously affected their status. It can be said that this cooperation was completed with the flow. The girl saw the power of the entire United States. It can be said that this press conference reflected the clarion call initiated by the entire United States to curb China.

In the current situation, the girl learned that the national CPU research can be said to be a lot worse. Although it is helped by nanoforming machines, the production of CPU is not something that can be made with extremely high technology. It is obvious that without the experience of making CPU circuits from high to low, you can't make independent CPUs at all. In other words, this challenge can only be fought against the Future Technology Group.

But it is too early to think about this now, and what exactly it is will take the next day to know.

The girl hurried to the conference room. Wang Sufen, Zhou Yue, and Ruan Hongyu are all waiting here now. The girl sat down and asked, "Is there any information about their research direction?" Everyone shook their heads. They knew that the US government had made the information obtained by Qiao Yuhe.

Regarding computer hardware, Ruan Hongyu should be said to be the most qualified one. Naturally, the girl looked at her. Ruan Hongyu was also prepared. She opened a document for everyone: "I looked at the protagonists of their joint press conference. In addition to the two companies Intel and ibm that can attract people's attention, I think Harvard is the key." Everyone looked at the data and saw that there was a data research data about Harvard. "In 2006, scientists at Harvard University in the United States announced that using ultra-low temperature atoms to "freeze" and control light can form the "heart" of the optical computer - the central processing unit (CPU). The optical brain broke through the speed limit of silicon technology with a data transmission speed of 10 times faster than traditional electronic devices.

The research is a major breakthrough in the development of ultra-speed computers that use light instead of electrons for information processing. As one of the authorities in global ‘slow light’ research, a research team led by Professor Lene Hau of Harvard University is famous worldwide for its effective reduction of light speed. They used a device containing ultra-low-temperature sodium atomic clusters to reduce the speed of light from 300,000 kilometers per second (the speed of light in a vacuum) to the normal riding speed of the bicycle, and even successfully 'freeze' the light. Hau said this technology could be used to make storage devices for the next generation of optical computers.

Hau's latest research project is directly developed for related technologies of optical computers. She proved through calculation that an ultra-low temperature atomic group called Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) can be used for the "controllable and coherent data processing" of light. In ordinary matter, the amplitude and phase of the light pulse will gradually fade, and all the stored information will be damaged. Dr. Hau's "slow light" experimental research proves that these properties of light in BEC are preserved, and such devices can one day "evolve" into the CPU of optical computers."

After everyone finished reading it, Ruan Hongyu continued: "The current situation is that we don't know their current research results. After all, six years have passed. Although it is very difficult to use a completely transformed optical brain, it is certain that if the funds and technical support of the two major companies are added, practical optical brains will inevitably be born in the next 6 to 10 years. Of course, it means that the two major companies have no research on optical brains or have repeated research on them by three parties. However, this hope is not great. It is possible that the three parties' scientific and technological data will be studied very quickly!"

When everyone looked at the information, they had to say that Ruan Hongyu's speculation was very reasonable. The future research and development of intelligence is not weak, so the traditional method is likely to not achieve the goal they want at all. Then, the natural optical brain and quantum computers, computers with the inevitable future development trends, naturally became their choice. Harvard is studying optical brain and has made great progress, so it is natural that it is the optical brain to cooperate in the development of new computers.

The girl thought about it and asked Ruan Hongyu: "Can our optoelectronic computers be taken out in a short time." Ruan Hongyu recalled the information and said to the girl: "Our optoelectronic computers and all-photon computers have developed lately. However, if it were optoelectronic computers, we could test them in the next two to three years. In fact, it could have been faster. However, the emergence of ternary CPUs made the Optoelectronic Research Institute overturn their original design plan and wanted to make an intelligent optoelectronic computer with ternary CPUs as auxiliary structures for logical operations, so this time was delayed." The girl heard

Here, he smiled and said, "Since that's the case, we will continue to do it step by step. Even if they are fast, they cannot do it well in five years. And what is certain is that they must focus on all-optical brains, so it will be very troublesome as the storage part. It will take more than 7 years to want a perfect product, and then our optoelectronic computers will definitely occupy a place." Ruan Hongyu nodded and affirmed the girl's statement. However, both of them knew that the difficulty of all-optical brains lies in the storage and slowing of light. Before a new breakthrough, all-optical brains are just a concept and cannot be made into products at all.
