Chapter 467

For supercomputing, this kind of killer weapon that is related to the overall development of scientific research and technology is not only valued by the Huaxia government, but also by Wang Fan.

Even for many far-sighted countries, supercomputers are more important than nuclear weapons, or more practical.

Not only because the existence of super-class supercomputers can greatly accelerate the development of nuclear weapons and other advanced weapons.

More importantly, the main function of nuclear weapons is deterrence. So far, only island countries have tasted the novelty once, but now the complex world structure determines that nuclear weapons may be difficult to be used again unless everyone plays together.

On the contrary, the existence of supercomputing can comprehensively promote the progress and improvement of scientific research, education, social services, etc., in all aspects.

It can be said that supercomputing is related to the development and rise of an enterprise or even a country.

For example, China's Lenovo, Inspur, and foreign Intel, Microsoft, etc., all have their own core supercomputers.

And the level is also ridiculously high.

Supercomputers such as Lenovo and Inspur, even if they are not as good as Tianhe-[-], are still among the top ten in the world.

Similarly, as the current technology giant and the future technology overlord, Mortal Technology must not only have its own supercomputer, but also an absolute E-level supercomputer, or even a super-E-level supercomputer.

It's just that the relevant hardware suppliers can't keep up and can't meet Wang Fan's needs. Therefore, the supercomputing technology of Mortal Technology can only be put on hold temporarily, and related calculations can only rely on China's Tianhe-[-] and Sunway Taihu Lake. Light.

This is also the reason why Wang Fan has spared no effort to help Huaxia upgrade the supercomputer, so that Tianhe-[-] and Sunway TaihuLight can better serve mortal technology!

In addition, with these two upgrades, Wang Fan can also be regarded as a trial, laying the foundation and accumulating experience for building a supercomputer of mortal technology in the future!

…………

Everyone at the scene stared at the screen, excited and nervous at the same time.

Especially the researchers of the Jiangnan Institute, the pressure doubled.

You know, from the very beginning, they shouldered the mission, adopted domestic processors, adopted domestic operating systems, and developed a high degree of self-development...

It can be said that this is a project with a great mission from the beginning, but it is not optimistic.

After all, generally speaking, in these aspects, there is still a huge gap in the level of domestically produced products and the world's advanced ones.

Therefore, since the establishment of the project, all scientific researchers in the Jiangnan Institute, whether they are executives or basic technicians, have had a heavy burden and doubled the pressure.

In addition, a few days ago, Wang Fan upgraded Tianhe-[-], which made Tianhe-[-] undergo earth-shaking changes and became the world's first supercomputer with a speed exceeding one billion operations.

Therefore, this makes the challenge facing Sunway TaihuLight even more difficult.

If Sunway TaihuLight cannot surpass the upgraded Tianhe-[-], then it is not only a failure of Jiangnan Research Institute, but also a failure of domestic production, a failure of independent research and development!

No one can afford this crime, except Wang Fan who has always been detached from the world!That monstrous existence.

…………

"Restart, let's test!" Wang Fan said casually, but his fingers were on the table, knocking leisurely.

But everyone at the scene couldn't help but their heartbeats accelerated nervously.

That feeling, like facing the college entrance examination again, uneasy...

Different from Tianhe-[-], Sunway TaihuLight uses a domestically produced system, interface, and operation logic, all of which are quite different.

But the restart speed is surprisingly fast, even faster than the upgraded Tianhe-[-], which made the Jiangnan Institute a little relieved.

After all, the startup speed is also an important manifestation of superior performance.

Immediately afterwards, there are routine tests, peak computing speed, and continuous computing speed!

It is the most important indicators and parameters of the current supercomputing, and it also determines the existence of the supercomputing level.

Everyone stared at the big screen intently. The number that was still jumping was just a thought in their hearts, which was a bit complicated and difficult to name.

Wang Fan was still beating on the table, but his attitude was much more correct.

Because he is also concerned about what kind of level the Sunway Taihu Light can reach after he has perfected it.

Breaking through one billion supercomputers?

There's nothing wrong with that.

But what if it’s an exascale E-class supercomputer?

Wang Fan can't tell either!

The test throw continues:

7.56 quintillion, 9.84 quintillion, 10.21 quintillion, 11.55 quintillion, 12.97 quintillion...

The time passed by second by second, but with the operation of the Sunway Taihu Light, the calculation speed per second is still constantly refreshing.

Everyone at the scene couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Up to now, the performance of Sunway TaihuLight has surpassed the upgraded Tianhe-10, becoming the second supercomputer in the world to break through [-] billion operations, and its peak computing speed is the only one in the world. , and more importantly, it continues to surge!

15.88, 16, 56, 17.93, 20.11…

"It's broken 20 billion billion times!"

The scene couldn't help but burst into applause and exclamation!

The world's first supercomputer breaking through 20 billion billion operations was born, China's Sunway TaihuLight!

All the staff of the Jiangnan Institute couldn't help but beam with joy, and looked at Wang Fan with gratitude and admiration.

If it weren't for Wang Fan, the official operation of Sunway TaihuLight would have to wait until the end of the year at least, and the performance would have just broken 10 billion times at most.

But now, not only has it been completed ahead of schedule, but it has also made great strides all the way, becoming the world's second supercomputer to break 10 billion exascale, the world's first supercomputer to break 20 billion exascale, and the absolute number one in the world!

Even within a few years, European and American countries will not be able to catch up!

But everyone understood that all of this was due to Wang Fan.

Therefore, everyone couldn't help but look at Wang Fan with gratitude and admiration in their eyes.

But Wang Fan still didn't care, but continued to stare at the big screen.

He naturally knew that after his upgrade, the Sunway Taihu Light would not be able to break the 10 billion billion mark, and that was purely a joke.

As for 20 billion billion times, it is just a pediatrician!

But Wang Fan's goal is an E-level supercomputer with tens of billions of operations.

It's just that Wang Fan doesn't know whether Sunway TaihuLight, which represents the highest level in China and the highest level in the world, can reach this level!

The numbers on the screen are still jumping:

23.44, 26.56, 27.93, 28.65, 29.72…

"Oh my god, is it going to break through 30 billion billion times?" Someone at the scene couldn't help but exclaimed.

Others, likewise held their breath, waiting for the moment to witness this miracle.

At that time, Sunway TaihuLight will be the second supercomputer in the world to reach 10 billion exaflops, the world's first supercomputer to reach 20 billion exaflops, and the world's first supercomputer to reach 30 billion exascales!

Exciting to think about!
