Wang Zhengyang was very excited. An idea suddenly came to his mind. He didn't even bother to eat. He hurriedly paid the bill and returned to the research institute.
"Everyone go to the largest conference room for a meeting immediately~"
As Wang Zhengyang walked towards the largest conference room, he was already sorting out his next thoughts in his mind.
Soon, the largest conference room was filled with people, and everyone was confused. Wang Zhengyang had just asked everyone to disperse not long ago, but in the blink of an eye, he called everyone together again to find out what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd.
"Let me introduce something to you first~"
Seeing that everyone was here, Wang Zhengyang brought his mind machine, and with a movement of his mind, a picture of an abacus appeared on the projection screen.
"abacus?"
When everyone saw the picture, they were even more confused. Wang Zhengyang played the picture of the abacus to see what it meant. Everyone studied Chinese operating systems and Chinese programming, and it seemed that it really had nothing to do with the abacus.
"I think many people should have recognized this thing. Yes, it counts."
Wang Zhengyang looked at everyone's confused eyes, smiled and continued.
"Abacus, also known as abacus, is a simple calculation tool invented by our ancestors. It is known as the oldest computer."
"Of course, with the advent of computers, it has gradually disappeared from our sight."
Then the pictures on the screen quickly changed. There was an abacus on the left, a computer on the right, and an equal sign in the middle.
When they saw this, the eyes of many researchers, engineers, etc. below the stage lit up slightly. Like Wang Zhengyang, some people suddenly had a flash of inspiration in their minds, and then they began to become excited, and their eyes widened.
.
"That's it~That's it~"
"He was inspired by the abacus. The abacus and the computer have something in common. They are both used to calculate data. However, the abacus is an ancient thing. If the abacus and the computer can be integrated together."
Someone said excitedly, and then took out the pen and paper he carried with him and began to calculate continuously.
"The computers and the Internet we use now are very complicated, especially the world of the Internet, which is like a second virtual world."
"But fundamentally speaking, whether it is computers or the Internet, it is still the most fundamental calculation rules, which are the binary rules of the values we currently use."
Seeing that there were people in the audience who were very excited, Wang Zhengyang smiled slightly, and then began to speak slowly.
"We have been studying how to use Chinese to program and use Chinese to construct operating systems. We have always studied based on the original basic framework."
"So even though we thought about it and spent a lot of time and energy on it, we were never able to achieve a substantial breakthrough."
"So inspired by the abacus, I think we should abandon everything we know about computers and start from scratch."
"Suppose we are now going to redesign the computer, design the computing rules and systems of the computer, tear down all the existing ones, and then rebuild a new set of rules and systems."
"The basis of this system is based on the calculation rules of the abacus. We no longer use binary rules. We use the calculation rules of the abacus to create new calculation rules and systems. I think we will definitely be able to achieve a major breakthrough.
"
The more Wang Zhengyang talked, the more excited he became, as if he had seen a brand new revolution in the computer field.
The existing binary calculation rules are simple and easy to understand, and are also very conducive to calculations. It is a number system widely used in computing technology and was invented by Leibniz, the German master of mathematical philosophy in 1679.
Binary data is a number represented by two digits, 0 and 1. Its base is 2, the carry rule is "every two is forwarded to one", and the borrowing rule is "borrow one to make two".
The current computer system uses a binary system. Data in the computer is mainly stored in the form of two's complement code. The binary system in the computer is a very tiny switch, with "on" representing 1 and "off" representing 0.
The binary calculation system is very conducive to computer operations. It has simple technical implementation, simplifies calculation rules, is suitable for logical operations, and is easy to convert between base and decimal. At the same time, using binary to represent data has strong anti-interference ability and reliability.
High advantages.
However, we all use decimal progress in our daily life, so after the data is input into the computer, it must first be converted into binary for calculation, and after the calculation is completed, it must be converted into decimal and then the result can be transmitted.
In addition, due to the calculation rules of binary, it takes a very long time to convert a very simple number into binary, and the calculation is many times more cumbersome than decimal. The larger the data, the more complicated the calculation is.
To give a very simple example, 9 times 9, using the decimal system, we immediately know that it is 81, but if we use the binary system to calculate, the binary system of 9 is converted to 1001. This 1001 times 1001 is not difficult to calculate, but if it is
If tens of thousands or even more complex data is converted into binary for calculation, it will be very complex and huge.
Current computer technology has become binary, but it is also limited by binary.
Because of the binary system, as human science and technology develop to a bottleneck stage, it is difficult for the computers we can build now to achieve substantial breakthroughs.
From a professional point of view, the computing power of a computer depends on the precision of the computer chip. The most advanced chip today can only achieve a maximum of 8 nanometers, which means that in terms of unit area, it can only achieve a maximum of 8 nanometers.
To the extent of nanometers.
And the further it develops, the harder it will be to achieve a breakthrough, like a ceiling that stands on the road to the development of human science and technology.
Because it can only achieve a maximum of 8 nanometers, the computing power of existing computers also has a limit. Once the computing data is too large, it will start to heat up.
The most obvious thing is that when we use the computer to play games, the computer will become very hot because it is calculating data at high speed.
If decimal can be used for calculation, its operation on simple data may not be as good as binary, because the advantages of binary are more obvious in terms of computer logical data.
However, in increasingly complex and larger data calculations, the advantages of binary will become very obvious. It can become simpler, more accurate, and faster.
(This is nonsense, just read it and don’t take it seriously.)
After hearing Wang Zhengyang's words, everyone present suddenly realized. Some people who still didn't understand it were now considered to know Wang Zhengyang's plan.
"Is it feasible to overthrow the binary system and adopt the calculation rules of the abacus?"
"And will this be more conducive to the development and research of Chinese programming and Chinese operating systems?"
Some people couldn't help but shake their heads slightly. Binary calculation rules have long been deeply rooted in people's hearts, and they have penetrated deeply into everything in the computer field. Now they have to be overthrown and everything starts from scratch. The future seems dark.
"How can you know it doesn't work if you don't try it?"
Of course, some people said excitedly.
Both abacus and computer are used to calculate data. When the computer was first born, scientists built it to calculate the trajectory of artillery shells and missiles so that they could conduct accurate artillery strikes.
The computers that had just been manufactured were very large, like a building, but their computing capabilities were far behind those of today's computers.
If this abacus can be developed, a brand new computer can be developed based on the abacus...
When they think of this, many people can't help but get excited.
ps: This is nonsense, don’t get too deep into it~~ By the way, are there any experts in computer science who can tell me whether this will work?
