The computing performance of public supercomputers around the world is ranked twice a year to determine the ranking of the top five hundred supercomputers in the world. Usually, the top-ranked supercomputers are owned by national research institutions.
Whether it is a commercial company or a private research institution, the performance of the supercomputers used will not be outstanding. However, there may be more powerful supercomputers hidden in the dark.
The Angel Council hid the super computer Holy. The super computer Holy's computing performance ranks fourth in the world, but it is not known to the outside world at all. The super computer Holy is the secret weapon of the Angel Council, and it has made many contributions to the Angel Council.
Think about it, the Angel Council has a supercomputer with a computing performance of 80 terblaps, which can be used 100% and can even be overclocked to improve performance. How sharp will their hacking behavior be?
Fortunately, supercomputers are sacred and are generally under the control of the first giant and the second giant, rather than Raphael and Uriel. Otherwise, with Raphael's character, Dream Entertainment would be in big trouble, Raphael
I have to find trouble with Dream Entertainment every day.
The Angel Council earns a considerable amount of wealth every year. Even in the era of 2000, it earned at least one billion U.S. dollars every year. With such a huge amount of wealth, it still did not purchase the world's best supercomputer in terms of computing performance. That's because the super computer
The investment cost and maintenance cost of computers are very high.
In the 2000s, a supercomputer with a computing performance of KCtflaps cost approximately US$100 million. If Dream Entertainment wanted to build a supercomputer with a computing speed of 360tflaps, it would need to invest US$300 million in core components alone.
about.
A supercomputer is different from a personal computer. A personal computer just assembles a bunch of parts and turns it into a computer. The assembly is almost effortless. Even Dier who knows a little bit of computer knowledge can easily complete it.
The assembly work of supercomputers is not a simple work of stacking blocks that can be completed by assembling a large number of parts. The design and assembly work of supercomputers is very complicated. Supercomputers in the 1990s were all third-generation
Supercomputers, without corresponding technology, absolutely cannot complete the assembly of supercomputers.
Before Shi Lei was reborn, supercomputers had experienced a total of four generations of technology. The first generation of supercomputers was almost the same as ordinary computers. They were also composed of a main controller, a storage, arithmetic unit, and input and output devices. The difference was that·
The first generation of supercomputers were just specially designed CPUs to improve computing speed and increase system computing performance.
The flaws of the first generation of supercomputers are very obvious. When the computing power of a single CPU core is improved, how to reduce power consumption and solve heat dissipation and other problems will make the first generation of supercomputers quickly withdraw from the stage.
Due to the shortcomings of the first-generation supercomputers, the second-generation supercomputers replaced it. Compared with the first-generation supercomputers, the main change of the second-generation supercomputers is to increase the number of CPUs, that is, multi-core processing. However, the second-generation supercomputers
The first generation of supercomputing has indeed solved some of the problems of the first generation of supercomputing, but new problems have emerged again.
The second-generation supercomputers have many flaws, especially the problems with public memory and maintaining caches, which are very difficult to deal with and there is almost no way to avoid them. This problem leads to the very limited expansion performance of the second-generation supercomputers.
Coupled with the increase in computing cores, the speed improvement has become quite limited. The second generation of supercomputers also sadly left the market.
The third-generation supercomputer became the mainstream of high-end supercomputers in 2008. Almost all high-end supercomputers adopted the technical standards of the third-generation supercomputer.
The third-generation supercomputer mainly adopts a distributed multi-processor architecture, using multiple independent CPUs to perform the same task. It also uses a distributed storage system. Each independent CPU and independent memory form a node within the supercomputer.
·This avoids the maintenance problems of the public memory and cache of the second-generation supercomputer, and the expansion performance is also quite excellent.
The technology of the third-generation supercomputer was still in use before Shi Lei was reborn! However, the technology of the third-generation supercomputer is not without its flaws. Like other relatively perfect technologies, it performs very well in all aspects, except
Cost issue. The only disadvantage of third-generation supercomputer technology is its relatively high cost.
Shi Lei secretly calculated in his mind that if he wanted to assemble a supercomputer with a computing performance of 300mps, in addition to the material cost of 300 million U.S. dollars, he would need at least 100 million U.S. dollars in additional expenses.
This 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 technology.
Even though Shi Lei owns Yizuer, as an advanced pseudo-artificial intelligence system, Yizuer is actually a supercomputer operating system, which saves the development cost of a supercomputer operating system, but it still costs a lot of money!
Dream Entertainment currently has a lot of money on its books. It spent US$1 to acquire AMD, and there is still US$2.7 billion left in Dream Entertainment's books. Although it seems that US$400 million has been allocated from US$2.7 billion to establish the world's number one company.
A supercomputer is not a big problem, but that is definitely not possible!
Dream Entertainment Company has many plans for the future, including wholly-owned AMD, developing smartphone production business, building Mirui Technology Headquarters, and establishing a scientific research center in the Yellow Triangle. Shi Lei even has plans to build a secret building on Meishan Island in South Vietnam.
submarine base.
No matter which plan it is, the money consumed is not a small amount, especially the last plan, which is simply a bottomless pit. Shi Lei really doesn't know how much money a secret undersea base will cost!
"The S system has been calculated and initially estimated to cost US$325,000,000, which includes the procurement costs of all core components of the supercomputer, related system development costs, and the corresponding site purchase and supporting installation costs." Yizuer reported a price to Shi Lei.
Shi Lei was stunned. Why was the result calculated by Yi Zuer almost 100 million US dollars less than the result he estimated?
"Yizur, how did you calculate the result?" Shi Lei asked.
Yizuer displayed the comprehensive data of all the payments through a projector, and Shi Lei found out the reason. The supercomputer designed by Yizuer uses the Opteran series of CPUs produced by AMD, which is what Xia Guo said.
Opteron, series of computing processing chips.
ABRD Company is currently a subsidiary of Dream Entertainment Company. Although it is not a wholly-owned subsidiary, it is already an absolutely controlled subsidiary. Products produced in-house are naturally cheaper!
Shi Lei patted his forehead. He habitually forgot about AMD. AMD was indeed far behind Untel in terms of technology.
"Damn Yizuer, even if it's 100 million US dollars cheaper, you can't build such a high-end supercomputer!" Shi Lei said gloomily. The disadvantage of the third generation supercomputer is the cost control problem. It will take some time for Shi Lei to study the fourth generation.
Technical issues in supercomputing.
The fourth-generation supercomputer has all the advantages of the third-generation supercomputer, and also slightly makes up for the shortcomings of the third-generation supercomputer, reduces a lot of costs, and has better efficiency in the utilization efficiency of computing resources.
Especially in terms of energy consumption, the fourth generation supercomputers have done better.
Although Shi Lei does not plan to build a supercomputer with a computing performance of 300mpT, he still plans to assemble and manufacture a high-performance supercomputer. Anyway, AMD is currently a subsidiary of Dream Entertainment Company. AMD has a complete set of technologies for manufacturing supercomputers, so it is not in vain!
"Sr The real IP addresses of all intruders have been tracked!" Yi Zuer reminded Shi Lei.
Shi Lei's eyes lit up and he sneered: "Are the real IP addresses of those intruders distributed in Xia Country?" Shi Lei had expected when dealing with the intrusion problem that the hacker who invaded Dream Entertainment Company was most likely Xia Guo.
The power of the country, even those damn online game operators.
"Mr. Ma, I wonder if your big penguin will be involved this time?" Shi Lei wondered whether the big penguin would continue to look for trouble after being dealt with by Dream Entertainment.
However, this time Shi Lei obviously miscalculated. He underestimated Mr. Ma's courage. The big penguin was not afraid at all. The big penguin was the mastermind of this attack! He even lured the Angel Council out and asked the Angel Council to follow Mr. Ma's plan.
, prepare to deal with Dream Entertainment Company.
"The specific data of Sr has been projected, please check it." Yizuer projected the data. The real IP addresses of more than 150 hackers were distributed. Except for a few people overseas, the rest were all in Xia Kingdom.
Shi Lei's eyes turned cold and he stared at the location of Pengcheng in Dongguang Province on the map. There were twenty-four intruders marked on it. All the members of Big Penguin's Broken Blade Team are currently in Pengcheng, and their number is exactly twenty.
"Mahuateng!" Shi Lei snorted coldly, "You're plotting against me behind my back again!"
If Ma Hua Teng sat across from Shi Lei, he would tell Shi Lei proudly, "I'm the one who got the hair out of you, what can you do to me?"
Council of Angels, secret voice communication channel.
The flaming sword Raphael suddenly issued an order: "Sunlight, Moonlight, prepare to launch an attack on the WMB server of the official website of Dream Entertainment's World of Braves!"
