Chapter 470, New discoveries in the computer field
Since we are going to strengthen the construction of the umbrella company, the relevant work must be carried out in an orderly manner. During this winter vacation, the whole family came to the UK to play, and the father, who is also proficient in British history and culture, took everyone to visit. So Alice naturally enjoyed sitting in central London every day, watching the company develop step by step.
It is worth mentioning that her new secretary Monica is indeed very outstanding.
Monica is an Englishman. After graduating from a private middle school, she went to Harvard Law School to study for her undergraduate degree in law and obtained a lawyer's degree. However, she did not start her career directly at the procuratorate. After skipping grades for two years of undergraduate studies, she went directly to the business school and started her MBA course.
Of course, in this process, she also worked in a Wall Street company. After all, most of the courses at MBA are extremely practical. In two years, MBA passed the course and successfully passed the examinations of American Certified Public Accountants and British Chartered Certified Public Accountants...
That's right, she really looks very similar to Sophie. This is why Alice insisted on asking her after reading her resume. Except for the fact that her major in law is not a doctoral degree, her experience before she was 25 years old is completely a copy of her mother!
It is precisely because of such an outstanding secretary to the board of directors that Sophie certainly had no need to stay with her daughter, but went on a trip to the UK with James and his two children.
"Monica."
Alice called her secretary: "Also allocated the computer research center I built in Exeter to the scope of company property."
The tall girl was wearing a decent suit and quickly recorded the chairman's order: "Okay lady, but the computer research center... is allocated to the pharmaceutical company?"
Monica looked at the girl at the table with great interest, a high school girl who was younger than her almost the entire middle school life, and every decision she made was so interesting.
"Yes, pharmaceutical companies." Alice chuckled: "If you want to talk about which industries need the help of supercomputers the most, the medical industry is the most typical one. Just tell Mr. Li Ka-shing the resolution directly, and he will not bother you or anything else."
Li Ka-shing, the second largest shareholder with 20% of the umbrella, has been well-known recently. Monica has recorded it carefully, but she is very clear that most of the senior executives of the Vanda company downstairs are elderly people of the Yangtze River Group.
"Okay, Miss Wang, do you have anything else?"
Alice started to figure it out.
Well, of course, she also meant to look at Monica by the way.
This buttery girl can really be a Victoria's Secret supermodel. She has beautiful legs in high heels, her brown and black hair droops her head, and she stands firmly in front of her, which is really a bit oppressive.
"Get document b-2."
Monica smiled knowingly: "Okay, Miss Wang, please wait."
After saying that, she walked out of the room with graceful steps.
Alice sat up and got on the bench, tapping her fingers gently on the table.
Document b-2 was quickly sent over, and a thick folder was filled with investigation information she had obtained from Uncle Akaman.
Some details about Drakken.
The memory of being chased cannot be easily forgotten. It doesn't matter whether Alice will be threatened, but that she absolutely cannot allow herself to be threatened. What are the plans of the director Drakken, named O'Brien's Anderson, and the tall female spy who secretly stole the initial blueprint of the institute?
Alice didn't expect the Blackwater mercenaries to investigate the real results quickly, but it was still easy to collect some more detailed corporate intelligence.
The first thing that caught my eye was the detailed list of directors of Drakken, which not only included each of their names, but also detailed each person's shareholding in the company, their respective identities and other careers. Alice quickly pulled out O'Brien Anderson's part and put it aside, and then continued to read in depth.
Facts have proved that special forces can also do business espionage work. Many companies will not take the initiative to inform partners of their information, but here they are like a girl who has opened the last piece of cloth.
As a company that produces drilling rigs, Draken has businesses all over the world. Of course, it is still based on Europe as its main market, which is closer to the current goal of protecting umbrellas. The production and sale of drilling rigs naturally means that it has close ties with many industrial and mining companies, so Alice soon saw a long list of related companies.
Of course, the Middle East is also its main market, and its oil storage accounts for more than one-third of the world, and too many oil wells need to purchase drilling rigs.
Of course it's no big deal, so Alice just glanced and planned to put it aside...
"Um?"
But she still saw something.
General person in charge of the Middle East drilling rig market...
Alice left with her eyes fixed.
O'Brien Anderson?
Oh, isn’t this the guy who built a villa on the shore of a lake in Switzerland?
What a coincidence~!
Alice burst into laughter.
"Miss Wang?" At this time, Secretary Monica connected Mike at the door: "Mr. Punez has something to come to you."
Punez?
Alice looked up and Harry Punez was waiting outside the glass door as if he was urinating, so excited that he was so excited that he treated her door as a urinal!
"Let him come in!" Alice quickly pressed the button - yes, right, just under the table, there was a gold-inlaid Sand|Demon|Eagle Limited Edition hanging next to it.
"Alice~"
As soon as the door opened, Harry rushed in: "Great Discovery! Big Discovery! Come down to the building quickly!"
Harry is the team leader in the programming field on the fourth floor. What can he discover? The person on the third floor is still excited about USB's idea now. Why? Is iOS or Android also been researched?
"What discovery?" Alice stood up and said, "The blueberry pis you gave you are actually all blackcurrant replacements?"
"Blueberry Pi? Black Currant? Oh, not those!"
Unlike other colleagues, Harry's hairstyle is clean and neat, and there is no messy beauty of a geek programmer at all. Because he was carefully cared for by his girlfriend he met in New York. Alice followed quickly, which was pleasing to the eye.
Then, an office on the fourth floor was opened.
In the extremely spacious room, the five colleagues each had their own small space, and each of them occupied a larger area than many chairman. But at this moment, they all gathered at Harry's table, and they all looked like him, looking so excited that they fainted.
"Boss Neo! Look at what good things Harry has done!"
"That's right, boss, Harry is going to win the Nobel Computer Award!"
"Everyone get out of the way and make room for the boss and Harry!"
After all, there are still eyesight. The irrelevant people will be cleaned up immediately. Harry asked Alice to sit in his seat.
Sure enough, the breakthrough in the field of programming was made. Of course Alice knew that Harry's group was also studying the development of the ternary field like others. Considering that this is an almost new field for everyone, everyone's development direction is of course not fixed, so naturally there is no theme throughout.
So, it is entirely possible to say that Harry suddenly had some wonderful ideas.
The speed of language is not as good as reading, especially Alice's speed. Without other nonsense, she directly read Harry's so-called breakthrough.
She quickly recognized that what was presented on the programming interface was an algorithm written on the principle of ternary system.
Algorithm...
The so-called algorithm refers to the accurate and complete description of the problem-solving solution, and is a series of clear instructions for solving problems. The algorithm represents the strategy and mechanism for solving problems using systematic methods. To talk about why you must be proficient in mathematics if you want to become a programming expert, the reason is reflected here. After all, computers are ultimately used to solve user problems. The fundamental difference between it and manual calculation is only efficiency, but the idea and process of solving problems has always been simulating the human brain.
As for the algorithm Harry is now compiling...
"Genetic Algorithm." Just a series of quick page turn, Alice immediately identified the type of algorithm.
The concept of genetic algorithm was first proposed by Professor Holland, the United States in 1975. It is a randomized search method evolved from the evolutionary laws of the biological world. Its main feature is that it directly operates on structural objects, without the limitation of derivatives and function continuity; it has inherent implicit parallelism and better global optimization ability; it adopts a probabilistic optimization method to automatically obtain and guide the optimized search space, adaptively adjust the search direction, and does not require certain rules.
In short, as far as Alice knows, this algorithm is sadly widely used in fields such as combinatorial optimization, machine learning, signal processing, adaptive control and artificial life, and is completely one of the most critical technologies in modern intelligent computing.
"Beautiful job~"
Alice laughed happily. Otherwise, she would have to run this computer research institute all the time. So, a capable man under her command had actually developed such a delicate algorithm!
"etc."
However, it seems a little wrong.
Alice came back from her inertial happiness and looked at Harry in shock: "Man, you're all written in ternary system!?"
Harry looked at Alice with a weird look: "Of course."
I originally thought I could fool the boss and make her admire him, but it seemed that it was going to be ruined. Harry thought, the boss is really worthy of being the boss, and she could see it at a glance by her genetic algorithm written in ternary system!?
"That's Neo, Harry is really... I really don't know what to say!" said a colleague next to him: "It's not difficult to say it's binary, but Harry compiled the genetic algorithm in ternary!"
Chapter completed!
