Chapter 541 Star Calculation

Yang Xing threw out cutting-edge terms in computer science such as distributed computing, parallel computing and virtualization, which shocked most of the audience. The information construction of Zhongxing International's companies has always been among the best in the industry. The "Smart Era" plan just proposed includes concepts such as "smart office" and "smart manufacturing". It is already ahead in hardware construction. Now it has launched this "Smart Computing" plan, which obviously requires big moves in the software environment.

The audience below are all jing English figures in the IT industry. When Yang Xing explained the "Star Computing" plan, he tried to be concise. "Star Computing" is an Internet-based supercomputer model. For example, it uses walking in data centers or supercomputers around the world, using the Internet as the basis to form a huge network similar to a constellation diagram, and then connects thousands of computers and servers together, which can exert 10 trillion or even higher computing power per second.

With such powerful computing power, it can even complete the processing and calculation of huge data such as simulating nuclear explosions, predicting climate change and market development trends. Users can directly read and make data from data terminals through computers, notebooks, mobile phones, etc. The large number of cumbersome and complex computing tasks can be processed by the data center, and the terminal product's power does not have to be very powerful, and can achieve effects similar to ordinary home computers.

If this plan can be realized, it means that many digital products are constantly pursuing hardware upgrades to be completely rewritten, especially hardware that is crazy about pursuing CPUs in computer upgrades, and memory and other parameters will lose most of the significance. As long as you can obtain "star computing" services, overly complex computing tasks can be processed through the network for the data center in the backend. Computer CPUs and other computers do not need to launch new products every year, and frequent upgrades of other components are not necessary.

You only need to be able to access the network and upload and download some software smoothly, and even the computer host can be omitted if necessary. You only need a certain motherboard interface and monitor to process business through a data center thousands of miles away. Industry tycoons like Intel and Microsoft will definitely feel very stressed, and their basis for monopolizing the market will be shaken.

There were already quick-responsive listeners in the audience who thought that this was not the old bottled new wine proposed by Shengyang Company in 1983? Zhongxing International once joined hands with Shengyang Company to divide the assets of Netscape. Xingdong Network's latest "Xinghe" browser was developed based on Netscape's comscape  Navigato browser's kernel. It is said that most computer Cào works can be completed directly on this browser. The popular netbooks that have just been launched are pre-installed with this browser. They are considered by the industry to be the biggest competitor of Microsoft's IE browser. Is Zhongxing International planning to take over Shengyang's relay?

As if you guess what everyone is thinking, Yang Xing continued, "'Star Computing' is a technology based on the dreams of many Internet pioneers. Only by standing on the shoulders of giants can you see further. Many distributed computing based on the Internet have already had successful examples. The reason why it has not been completely successful is that the time has not come. The idea of ​​genius without actual technical support is only fantasy. However, with the opening of the Internet highway, the bandwidth bottleneck that restricts data high-speed transmission no longer exists, and similar thin computers and network computers have been put into practice. From the idea, the era of treating the entire Internet as a supercomputer with high-speed computing is coming."

Yang Xing was generous on the stage, and the audience was intoxicated by the audience, feeling that a new big Mén was opening to them. Obviously, Yang Xing did not hide the idea that "star calculation" was derived from Shengyang Company's idea, but the content obviously far surpassed the former. He painted a larger picture.

In fact, Yang Xing on the stage was very nervous. The term "star computing" actually came from the very popular concept of "cloud computing" in his previous life. Before this conference, he had already discussed this concept with his subordinates Chen Siqin, Li Kaifu, Wu Haijun and others. They also helped him improve his term, but this was a concept that was five or six years ahead of schedule. Yang Xing didn't know whether people now can accept such an advanced concept.

As a rebirth, Yang Xing has a deep understanding of how popular the term "cloud computing" before his rebirth. This imported word made people who follow the trend in China want to associate everything with the word "cloud". Many people may not understand the true meaning of "cloud", but they just think it is fashionable and use it. "cloud storage, cloud video" can barely get some of it, but in the end, even the "cloud computing" trademark was snatched. It was ridiculous.

There are also many local governments in China who are not clear about the specific meaning of cloud computing, so they are rushing to build "cloud computing centers", which reflects the local officials' great love for success. Yang Xing feels that since "cloud computing" has a bright future, he will simply start it. It is just for the sake of bad taste. He used "star computing" instead of "cloud computing". In the future, there will be only "star storage, star video" and of course there may be condoms for star computing.

Of course, the main purpose of Yang Xing's proposal of "star computing" is to seize the commanding heights of the Internet and challenge the Winterl alliance of Microsoft and Intel, which has dominated the IT industry for more than ten years.

Bill Gates once recorded in his memoir that his biggest mistake was to misjudgment the development of the Internet, which led to the rise of Google and Facebook, which caused a great crisis in Microsoft's monopoly throne. In this life, because of Yang Xing, the butterfly, Google completely disappeared. Now the "Spark Fire" search engine is conquering cities and lands all over the world. With the sè search effect and bidding ranking system, Spark has not only become a cooperative search engine for large websites such as Yahoo and American Online, but also Microsoft has secretly sent a purchase request, hoping to buy this product at a high price.

Of course, Yang Xing would not agree. Another secret weapon of Xingdong Network, QQ instant messaging software, is being revised and upgraded to the QQ community, developing towards the direction of "Facebook" in the previous life. On campuses of universities such as the United States and Britain, the QQ community uses alumni records to sneak into the night and penetrates everywhere. By uploading photos, videos and resumes, an online enthusiastic community is rising rapidly, and the results can be seen from the number of QQ users. In the past, QQ chat users were only tens of millions, but after the launch of community services, the number of users has risen sharply and has exceeded the billions of mark.

Yang Xing has been planning for a long time and plans to use the "Star Wars" cào" system developed with Linux software to develop new usage areas are also underway. Yang Xing never only regards "Star Wars" as a smartphone system. Now the latest version of "Star Wars" has begun to be applied to smart home appliance interfaces, and the "Star Wars" version of industrial control software is also being tested. The Star Wars Research Institute and the Chinese Academy of Sciences are also working together to develop the "Star Wars" system used on supercomputers and servers.

With the hot sale of netbooks, low-priced products using the "Star Wars" system have been accepted by many third-world countries. After all, compared with similar products equipped with Microsoft Windows systems, the "Star Wars" system that is free and almost as good as the "Star Wars" system is of course more popular. In addition, Yang Xing also plots to develop an experimental product in the development - a tablet computer. Yang Xing's ambition to use the "Star Wars" system to unify the four-screen TV, computer, mobile phone, and tablet computer is obvious. Using mobile phones with relatively backward capabilities to perform cào like computers, it is inseparable from the "Star Wars" plan that uses complex computing and storage tasks to the Internet data center.

In the era of personal computers, the Winterl Alliance occupies the leading position in hardware and software. This alliance is too powerful, which makes many competitors have to rely on them to get some leftovers. Companies like Apple that developed the first personal computer have been in desperate situations. If it weren't for Jobs' successful second venture, people would have to go to museums to commemorate Apple computers.

But their monopoly position has in turn caused obstacles to innovation. Intel is completely trapped in the competition to pursue faster clock frequency, disregarding user needs. The most typical example is that Intel, as the world's largest core display manufacturer, has a weak Xìng built-in integrated graphics card of its Pentium chip, and it can be said to be playing ordinary 3D games, and it is very difficult to play videos with high resolution. This is not something Intel can't do, it just feels unnecessary, and its attitude is rude.

The hot sales of Nebula Electronics netbooks have attracted widespread attention. Although its ability is not strong, its biggest advantage is that its integrated graphics card multimedia can be used to meet the various service needs provided by Xingdong Network. Watching videos and playing mini games is not a problem. Intel's reaction to this is not to review its own shortcomings, but to sue Nebula Electronics in the name of infringing on patent rights.

Fortunately, Yang Xing was prepared for it. Not only did he actively respond to the lawsuit, he also made every effort to develop a "multi-core" CPU, striving to block Intel's mouth with new products. As for Microsoft, if Yang Xing had not proposed to buy out the netbook and use it as a system, and cooperated extensively with Microsoft in terms of smartphones, industrial control software, etc., and purchased a large number of Linux patents in Microsoft's hands, he would have been sued to court.

Since the traditional personal computer field cannot compete with these two giants, Yang Xing simply took a different approach to breaking out in the Internet field. And there is no situation where the Internet heroes will emerge in the future. After the Nasdaq collapse, the Internet industry is now a frightened bird, and many people are confused about the future development. Yang Xing launched the "Star Computing" plan at this time to seize the commanding heights, make network storage, network and distribution computing first, and throw Intel and Microsoft, which have not yet discovered the importance of the Internet, behind.
