Daguo Science and Technology started from the copycat system

On the other side, the presidents of several other companies also showed almost the same expression.

It seems that all companies are waiting for the 45nm process technology to be implemented, and then start to turn defeat into victory.

Regarding this, Sugon Technology did not know this at this time. It did not know that the Semiconductor Alliance had regarded Sugon Technology as meat on the chopping board and was planning how to cut meat from Sugon Technology.

But no matter what, Sugon Technology is still developing it slowly at this time.

Whether it is 32-nanometer process technology, 5G mobile communication technology, Industry 4.0 or even Dawning artificial intelligence technology, the progress is quite fast, and we will not be lazy just because of a little victory.

Therefore, it is still unknown who will win and who will lose in the future, and who will treat whom as meat on the chopping board.

…

Time passed slowly like this, February and March of 2007 passed in the blink of an eye, and time quietly came to April 18, 2007.

On this day, Intel announced that they had successfully produced the world's first 45nm process chip.

And it was announced that a press conference will be held on May 18, one month later, to officially release the fourth-generation Core processor.

In this regard, when this news came out, it naturally triggered a super earthquake in the global technology circle.

For a time, the global technology circle was talking about the news that the West had successfully won the 45nm process technology and once again led the world.

As soon as such news came out, the Internet media and people in Daxia naturally became anxious.

The media and the public are all anxious about when Sugon Technology's 45nm process technology will be available, and anxious about the future of Daxia Semiconductor.

However, in the face of external anxiety, Sugon Technology's focus at this time is not on the West's formal conquering of the 45-nanometer process.

Because the supercomputer that Sugon Technology has spent several months building is about to begin trial operation!

…

Daxia, Tianjin, in a newly built building on a high slope near the Haihe River and the coastline.

"Is this the Dawn Star Ocean Super Computer?"

The person who spoke in exclamation at this time was a middle-aged man with a serious face.

"Well, this is the Dawn Star Ocean supercomputer we developed."

The person who spoke at this time was Lin Chen with a look of emotion on his face.

Now Lin Chen was following behind this serious-faced middle-aged man, doing this behavior based on Lin Chen's status at this time.

It is foreseeable that the status of this serious-faced man is quite high, enough to keep many people awake at night.

On the other side, Ni Guangnan, the head of Sugon R\u0026D Center, interjected:

“It has been quite some time since we started developing the Dawn Star Ocean supercomputer, but it was finally thanks to Lin Chen that it could be put into practice quickly.

I have to say that we have Lin Chen in Daxia. This is really lucky for me in the semiconductor industry in Daxia.

Without Sugon Technology, we would not have the theoretically most powerful supercomputer in the world right now.

Whether our domestic computer chips and mobile phone chips can be produced is a problem. "

After finishing speaking, Ni Guangnan was really filled with emotion. He felt that the most correct decision in his life was to join Sugon Technology.

The reason is not how high his salary is, nor how high his corporate status is.

The reason is that he realized his chip dream here at Sugon Technology and realized his dream of becoming a technological power!

"Lin Chen is indeed a great contributor to our semiconductor industry."

At this time, the serious-looking boss gave affirmative words.

Hearing this, the senior executives of Sugon System accompanying him naturally breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

With the words of the boss, Sugon Technology and many companies in Sugon System will be able to avoid many invisible troubles.

After all, Sugon Technology is indeed a bit sensitive after it has grown to this point.

As the saying goes, Suguang Technology can avoid many tangible and intangible troubles, and there is no need to worry about being "unloaded and killed".

At this time, the serious-faced man turned his attention to the supercomputer aside and said:

"Next, let me see how powerful this supercomputer that is said to be able to change the world is."

"Well, let's officially start the power-on test."

Lin Chen nodded and made arrangements to start up the machine to the staff on the other side.

Seeing this, the staff who received the order naturally began to work intensively, and in the next few minutes, a series of buzzing sounds could be heard.

The main source of these buzzing sounds was the oversized cabinets that stood upright, about one person tall and three shoulder widths apart.

This oversized cabinet uses an upper and lower layered blade structure, with a total of 1,024 second-generation Ryzen R7 processors using a 65-nanometer process and 2,048 Sugon GTX270 graphics chips.

And there are 40 such oversized cabinets!

In other words, the Sugon Xinghai supercomputer in front of us actually has a total of 40,960 Ryzen R7 processors and 81,920 Sugon GTX270 graphics chips!

It is worth mentioning that these second-generation Ryzen R7 processors and second-generation Sugon GTX270 graphics cards are not normal graphics cards on the market.

Instead, a specially customized chip with ultra-high communication bandwidth and ultra-large running cache is specially customized for special scenarios such as supercomputers.

Of course, relying solely on CPU and GPU chips is not enough. After all, how to allocate and coordinate the computing tasks and transmit high-speed bandwidth of the CPU and GPU is a big problem.

After all, the real art and distinction of supercomputer technology lies in how to perfectly utilize the performance of each chip without causing one core to be difficult for multiple cores to watch.

Therefore, serving these 40,960 specially customized Ryzen R7 processors and 81,920 specially customized Sugon GTX270 graphics chips are 16 network cabinets and a core computer that is only responsible for task distribution and coordination, not calculation.

Of course, this Dawn Star Ocean supercomputer is not simply stacked with several times the number of chips and network cabinets than the previous Sunway TaihuLight.

Its main innovation lies in the cloud computing architecture proposed by Lin Chen, perfected by Ni Guangnan and other Daxia academicians, and finally verified by Lin Chen through virtual laboratory experiments.

The official name of this cloud computing architecture is Xinghai Architecture. Its architectural features are just like the name "Xinghai", which is that it can make countless chips form a sea of ​​​​stars.

Among them, the system efficiency of this Xinghai architecture is not high in the current supercomputer field, only 53%, which is 1% worse than Tianhe-1, and even worse than the average of more than 55% of supercomputers in later generations.

However, sacrificing system efficiency will inevitably lead to greater advantages elsewhere. This advantage is just like its name "Star Sea".

The biggest feature of its architecture is that just like the code name "Xinghai", it can continuously increase the number of chips while still maintaining high efficiency.

Therefore, the current 40 oversized cabinets are not actually the upper limit. As long as Sugon Technology wants to, it can continue to add new oversized cabinets to obtain stronger performance. (End of chapter)
