The road to technology

Chapter 789 What is the essence of calculation

Unexpectedly, after walking for a while, he encountered a figure hanging upside down in the air not far away, so he walked over and said such a sentence to this figure with great interest.

As soon as the man heard Yue Yuanzhou's voice, he immediately turned 180° from the floating handstand state, then made a haha ​​awkwardly, and said: "It's the boss, what did you just say? I was thinking about a problem and didn't pay attention. .”

"What are you thinking about? If it's about how to be happy with Eva, it goes without saying." Yue Yuanzhou asked with a smile.

Eva is the ecologically conscious life form on the Avatar planet, and the entire Shenzhou civilization knows that she is the partner of Longlin.

What Yue Yuanzhou said was actually just a joke, to adjust his research life.

Unexpectedly, the face of the spinning dragon scale suddenly showed a look of embarrassment, and then hesitated to speak: "What I think is... ah? This."

"You're not really thinking about how to get along with Eva more happily, are you?" Yue Yuanzhou said speechlessly.

Although this is a bit unreliable, but he doesn't care about personal matters, so he just expressed surprise and didn't mean to blame.

But Longlin didn't notice his expression.

Therefore, Yue Yuanzhou saw Longlin take a deep breath, and then said solemnly: "I am indeed thinking about this, but this is just the appearance of the problem I am thinking about. In fact, the problem I am really thinking about is the spirit or soul technology. Can it play a role in the infinite computing power computer project!"

"You know, I've been researching about the spiritual link system and the spiritual network recently. I've been immersed in the perfect fusion of the spiritual and computer systems for thousands of years, but I still can't get a perfect fusion structure."

Speaking of this, Longlin paused for a moment, fell to the ground, took a few steps on the ground, and then continued to say seriously: "So I wondered if it was a problem with the structure of the computer. After all, the human spirit or soul is not structured like a computer. , then can we
The new computer takes soul technology into consideration from the very beginning. We can try to create a computer similar to the mental operation mechanism, or a computer based on the mental operation mechanism, and then other operational functions are built on this framework, such as Like building a nest, build this supercomputer piece by piece.

Based on this kind of thinking, I think of some experience of my combination with Eva. You think, Eva is the consciousness of an ecological circle. I feel that the combination has something in common with the computer program I thought, maybe it will Some wonderful connections, so just now."

After Longlin finished speaking, he showed an expression of "as expected of me", he felt that if it was Shui Wangqiu who made his scalp into a surface of strong interaction force, he would never think of such a plan.

"By the way, boss, what did you just say?"

After slandering Shui Wangqiu, Long Lin brought up a question that he hadn't heard clearly before. He felt that anyone's question could be pretended to be ignored, but Yue Yuanzhou's couldn't.

After all, if he ignores it and refuses to ask, why does Yue Yuanzhou stop mentioning it because of face, maybe it's about himself?
Long Lin guessed half right this time.

Not that the problem was about him, but that it didn't have much to do with him.

The half of the guess is that Yue Yuanzhou really didn't want to mention it again.

Because Yue Yuanzhou felt that this issue should be discussed with scientists or mathematicians who are proficient in characteristic information technology, not Longlin.

But now that Longlin has asked, he will not say nothing, after all, any discipline has a certain relationship, the so-called stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade.

But at the moment, he felt that Longlin's idea was really good.

Thinking of this, Yue Yuanzhou said: "I'll talk about the problem later. Well, you have a good idea about the new computer solution. Go back and draw up a feasibility report based on this idea, and describe the specific framework from the principle to the engineering difficulty. Write it in, and give a report at the seminar half a month later, so that everyone can discuss it.

By the way, you just said, 'other operational functions need to build this supercomputer piece by piece like a nest on this framework', what do you think about the construction of other functions? "

"I have some ideas, but they are not yet mature. I think we can use the existing 'spiritual operating system' as a template to build." Longlin slowly expressed his ideas, which is more than two words. Hour.

The two talked while walking.

After Longlin finished speaking, Yue Yuanzhou nodded, expressing his affirmation of this idea.

Then he stopped and said, "Your idea is very good, but it needs a little modification."

Seeing Longlin's expression of willingness to hear more about it, Yue Yuanzhou continued: "The plan to build computing components based on this framework should be based on the chaotic information technology in the most advanced field of Shenzhou civilization, combined with the research results on the nature of computing."

Yue Yuanzhou clattered about half a variety, all related to the underlying information and mathematics of the universe. This is clearly a different set of plans, which has nothing to do with the slight modification he said.

Just now, Yue Yuanzhou was thinking seriously, so he thought it would be best to use characteristic information technology as the basis, because he believed that characteristic information technology had some connection with this ultimate computer.

So he went on to say: "As for the research on the essence of computing. Let's go back to the question you didn't hear clearly at the beginning! What do you think is the essence of computing?"

It turned out to be the problem.
Without hesitation, Longlin said: "Information, mathematics!"

After hearing so many discussions about the two, Longlin still didn't understand what Yue Yuanzhou meant.

"Well, this is just a general concept, and it needs to be studied in detail." Yue Yuanzhou said slowly, "Just like mathematics, mathematics is a language to describe everything in the universe, but what is the essence of mathematics?"

"Then let's start with the origin of numbers! Then what are numbers, and why do we invent numbers?" Yue Yuanzhou asked himself and answered.

"About this question, we have to tell a story first. The story goes like this. Once upon a time, there was a man named Plush who worked as a clerk in a restaurant. Later, he received a call from a group of penguins to order food. After answering the call, he seriously Passing the order to the kitchen, he yelled: 'Fish, fish, fish, fish, fish, fish.'

Then in the following plot, another person named Qing Xueyuan introduced to Plush how to use the number 6 to better summarize the order information. "

Obviously, without numbers, the penguin's order could only be expressed as "fish, fish, fish, fish, fish, fish".If orders continue to increase, human thinking will be overwhelmed.
