On the computer, the test program Chen Ming created is still running.
When Tianhe-1 calculates this program, the computing peak and computing speed will be fed back, allowing the supercomputer's computing status to be clearly seen.
At this time, the program showed that the average number of operations per second of Tianhe-1 had reached an astonishing 490 trillion times!
It is even still rising and is about to break through 500 quadrillion times!
The test program appears to be further pushing the supercomputer's potential.
This is the purpose of the test, to find out what the strongest limit of this computer is.
The cooling system was emitting cold air at an increasing rate, and the entire laboratory seemed to have become a lot colder, like an ice cellar.
Everyone couldn't help but shivering with their arms hugged.
Although his body was cold, his eyes were unusually hot when he looked at Tianhe-1.
In the end, the number displayed on the test program froze at 515.4 trillion times.
As the numbers froze, the entire process slowly stopped and the cooling system returned to normal.
Liu Ping looked at Jin Wenling with a burning gaze and asked, "Dean, how many times~〃!"
Although the specific value is with the dean, they don't know it.
But they know that the calculation result this time will definitely be higher than the last time!
Jin Wenling also laughed out loud, "Quick, write it down, this time the peak value calculation of Tianhe-1 has made a new breakthrough!"
Everyone's eyes lit up and they quickly left their seats and gathered around to look at the calculation numbers frozen in the program, as well as other data such as the supercomputer power, number of floating-point operations, etc.
After watching it, everyone gasped.
They had tested it no less than a hundred times before, but the peak value basically only fluctuated around 470 quadrillion times.
Even if there is a gap, it is not big.
They even felt that this was the limit of Tianhe-1.
However, this time it reached 5154 trillion times! It broke the 50 million mark!
Only then did they realize that the previous tests were not the limit of Tianhe-1, but that the program they wrote was not enough to allow Tianhe-1 to unleash all its potential.
Everyone raised their heads and looked at Chen Ming in surprise.
Not only did Chen Ming's program writing speed far exceed theirs, but his program was even more advanced than theirs!
It’s only been an hour. If I give it to them, they probably won’t even finish writing the first line of code…
Everyone's face suddenly changed. They originally thought that Chen Ming came in to gild himself and take advantage of the fruits of his labor, but it turned out that he was a big shot!
Although the test data is just a text record, this data test is still very important.
It represents all the data results of this supercomputer and is the most intuitive report for leaders and the public.
When Tianhe-1 is officially launched, this report will be sent out together with it.
Moreover, this report must be true. We cannot say that the test data is 400 trillion times and then say it is 10 trillion times when issuing the report just to save face.
Truthfulness is also the bottom line for a scientific researcher.
Of course, as the saying goes, there are all kinds of birds in the forest. Over the years, there have been scholars who have disregarded the bottom line and committed academic fraud.
But they are also trading their own future for reputation.
Because once academic fraud is discovered, it is very serious and you may be directly expelled from the scientific research community, your reputation will be ruined, and you will be ridiculed by everyone.
His scientific research team will also scatter away from him.
Whether it is his students or his mentors, they will be ashamed of him and will basically not be able to hold their heads up in the future.
Therefore, those who work in the scientific research community would not dare to falsify data unless they really want to quit.
If you fail, admit it and get out. At worst, you can try again next time. People will still respect you as a man.
But if you dare to fake it, then you are really finished.
Therefore, even though they had hoped that the data of this computer could break through the 500 trillion mark, they did not dare to write it down if it did not break through.
But Chen Ming's program did test out new data, and it met their expectations!
At this moment, everyone admired Chen Ming from the bottom of their hearts.
Although I still wonder how he did it.
But this doubt pales in comparison to the new data.
At this moment, they were only happy about the numerical breakthrough, and forgot everything else.
The reason why I am so happy is that the higher the peak computing data, the higher the value of this supercomputer!
After all, the higher the value of the calculation, the more accurate the calculation.
For example, a missile is approaching in an unpredictable trajectory and you want to stop it.
It is necessary to calculate the true trajectory of the missile, and then launch an interceptor missile to intercept it along that trajectory.
The higher the peak value of a supercomputer's calculations, the faster it calculates, and the more accurate the results will be, allowing it to successfully calculate the trajectory before the missile arrives.
The chance of successful interception is higher.
On the contrary, if the peak value calculated by the computer is not good and it cannot figure it out after calculating for half a day, how can it be intercepted
Maybe the missile has exploded, but the computer is still calculating with smoke coming out.
Everyone looked at the new data in the computer excitedly, with gleams in their eyes.
At this time, they did not doubt the authenticity of this string of data.
They also saw the cooling system operating at full capacity just now.
The cooling system was even overloaded, which means that Tianhe-1 was extremely hot and its computing power had reached its limit.
The machine has become like this, how can the data be false? !
Everyone was stunned for a while before they came back to their senses from their joy.
'Pah pah pah'
Someone started clapping first, and everyone followed suit.
For a moment, there was applause.
It can be said that Chen Ming's program gave them a new understanding of Tianhe-1.
Otherwise, even the creators of this computer would not know its true limits.
Chen Ming felt a little embarrassed by their burning gazes.
He smiled modestly and said, "There's no need to be like that. I just did something insignificant. You who built this supercomputer are the ones who deserve the most admiration."
After hearing what Chen Ming said, everyone looked at each other and burst into laughter.
Many of them originally had some grudges against Chen Ming who came here to gild his reputation, but Chen Ming's move completely dispelled the grudges in their hearts.
Being able to write such a powerful program, Chen Ming's computer skills may have surpassed any of them!
Moreover, Chen Ming has such strong ability and yet is so humble, what a rare quality!
Chen Ming's status in everyone's heart has been elevated a lot.
Although the admiration for the strong in the military academy is not as perverted as that in the army, the degree of admiration for the strong is definitely deeper than that in other places.
They recognized Chen Ming's strength, and naturally recognized Chen Ming as a person.
Liu Ping immediately asked Chen Ming: "Chen Ming, how did you write this program? Don't you need to think about the program logic and program framework?"
Hearing Liu Ping's question, everyone suddenly became interested and waited expectantly for Chen Ming's answer.
This is exactly what they are curious about.
They all saw Chen Ming typing the code just now.
It was almost as smooth as flowing water, without any pause at all. Even though they were all experienced scientific researchers, it was basically impossible for them to achieve this step.
After all, for a program to operate successfully, logical relationships and program frameworks are indispensable.
Take a gun for example. To fire successfully, there is also a logical relationship involved.
For example, there must be bullets in the gun, and the primer and gunpowder of the bullets must be normal and meet the firing conditions.
Also, the firing pin of the gun is not faulty, the safety is on, and there is no problem with the trigger.
Only when all these are met can the gun be fired smoothly.
This is the logical relationship.
The logic of writing programs is similar.
Of course, writing a program is much more difficult than this. If the logical relationship is wrong in one step, all steps will be wrong.
If you want this program to work and achieve the effect you want, you need to think carefully about the logical relationships and program framework.
It is difficult to sort out these problems. When writing a program, you have to pause and think about what to do next after finishing this step.
This is to clarify the logical relationship.
But the look on Chen Ming's face just now seemed that he didn't need to pay any attention to all this and just wrote it down directly.
