The technological competition starts with the integration of space-time memory

Chapter 27 I am not a virus

Newtown, America.

ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) headquarters.

In the editor-in-chief's office of Journal of the ACM, Rowlett was a little overwhelmed by a prompt message on his desktop today.

At first he thought it was a Trojan virus that he was infected with when visiting certain special websites.

However, after he checked with multiple antivirus software, the prompt message still existed.

And the prompt information can be changed in real time.

From the original "You have a new submission email", it has become now:
“I’m not a virus. I’m just reminding you not to miss a heavyweight paper on the artificial intelligence algorithm framework!”

"Hacker! It must be a hacker!"

Rowlett is no stranger to hackers. After all, it is a world-class magazine in the computer field. Every day, hackers attempt to attack the magazine's website and try to publish their own junk articles on the website.

However, as a top computer journal, the power of firewalls is self-evident.

So far, no hacker has been able to penetrate the magazine's firewall.

"Did this record get broken today?"

Rowlett immediately called in the technical director of the IT department to conduct a comprehensive scan of the magazine's firewall and his own computer.

In the end, nothing was gained.

No, the prompt message has changed again.

"Editor-in-Chief Rowlett, instead of wasting time looking for hackers, why don't you take a moment to read your email and look at that great paper?"

When the technical director saw this message, he was drenched in cold sweat.

"This hacker is definitely top-notch! Should we report it to the relevant authorities?"

Rowlett was no longer so excited at this time.

He shook his head calmly, "No, there's no need. Go back first and pretend nothing happened. I'll take care of it."

When the technical director saw that the boss did not blame him, he immediately slipped away.

There are two reasons why Rowlett did not choose to report to the relevant departments:

First, this top hacker knows me, which means that my privacy on the Internet is in his hands.

Second, once reported to the relevant authorities, this will become a scandal for the journal and will seriously affect the journal's authoritative status in the computer industry!
Neither was something he could bear.

Since you can't resist, just choose to enjoy it!

Rowlett opened his mailbox and saw the unread email marked in bold black font.

He opened it with a double click of the mouse.

I quickly glanced at the brief email and the sender's address.

"On the Intelligent Algorithm Framework for Optimizing Big Data Processing? The address in Longguo? Is this hacker from Longguo?"

With doubts in his mind, he continued to choose to download the paper and open it.

He saw the first author of the paper: Li Tang.

Mailing address: Longguo Shangdu Future Technology Research Institute Co., Ltd.

Second author: Liu Tianxing, Yang Haiming, Luo Xu

Three authors: Zhao Songyuan, Xu Yi, Du Beibei,

Obviously this should be a business team.

Today, ChatGPT has ignited research on large-model generative AI in the computer industry.

The core of this is big data processing, and various algorithms are competing to appear.

You work on statistical parameter optimization algorithms, I work on linear eigenvalue optimization algorithms, he works on graph theory comparison algorithms... and so on.

This paper, which was pushed to me by top hackers, dared to be named with the intelligent algorithm framework. Perhaps it really has some novelty?
With a bit of reluctance, confusion and anticipation, Rowlett read page by page.

Before he knew it, he was immersed in it.

Sometimes, he would take a pen and do calculations on manuscript paper.

Sometimes, he would open the programming software and type out some code.

……

It had gotten dark without me noticing, but the lights in Rowlett's office had already been turned on.

Time passed as Rowlett studied tirelessly.

When he finished reading the last line, he felt a sense of satisfaction he had never felt before. Twenty years!

I had this feeling only when I was studying for my doctorate and studying a paper that my supervisor asked me to understand thoroughly.

Rowlett stared out the window with his eyes clearly bloodshot.

The sky was slightly brighter.

"Um...it's morning?"

Rowlett was a little hesitant, and then a little surprised.

Then I felt hungry. I was so hungry!

他快速扫了一眼电脑屏幕右下角，时间是2023年2月10日上午7:26。

"Oh my God, I read the paper from yesterday afternoon to this morning in one go? I am really crazy!"

"No, I have to go eat something, then take a shower and sleep..."

"Well... no, before going to bed, I should send this paper to a few reviewers to get them excited too!"

Rowlett made up his mind.

This paper is really great.

At a time when big model AI is in full swing, the emergence of this paper will inevitably lay a solid theoretical foundation for big model data.

This is a groundbreaking work!

The reviewers will definitely feel like they have found a treasure and will read the entire paper as hard as I do!

There is no doubt that the new issue will be a hit!
Maybe, this year I can be elected as a director of the association based on the discovery of this paper.

The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, and it seemed like I wasn’t that hungry anymore.

Rowlett acted quickly and forwarded the paper from the delivery system to three reviewers.

Then he took out his cell phone and called the reviewers one by one to urge them to review the manuscript.

"Yes, this paper is very important. I bet you will forget to eat lunch once you start reading it."

"George, believe me, you must read it right now!"

"Robin, forget about taking a vacation, this paper will help you break through the bottleneck in your model research!"

……

After calling the reviewers one by one, Rowlett closed his eyes and thought for a few minutes.

I picked up the phone again and called the distribution department this time.

"Logan, I need to print an additional special issue in three days. Yes, it must be published in time for the new issue next week!
That’s right, the cover of the new issue has been changed to promote the paper in the special issue!

I'm not crazy, trust me, we're going to sell like crazy!"

As soon as I hung up the phone, the ringtone rang.

The most experienced of the three reviewers, Turing Award winner Leslie Variant, has absolute authority in computing theory.

Rowlett answered the call immediately.

"…I want to know if the author of this paper is Li Tang, the professor at Fudu University who published three papers in Advances in Mathematics last month?"

Rowlett was a little confused. Although he knew all the celebrities in the computer industry, he really didn't know much about pure theoretical mathematicians who could publish papers in top mathematics journals.

However, it sounds like the name of the same Dragon Countryman.

However, according to regulations, reviewers cannot see the author information of the paper, so how did Leslie know Li Tang?
As if knowing what Rowlett was thinking at the moment, a voice came from the phone:

"The theoretical basis of an algorithm on page 47 of the paper is a mathematical formula in one of Li Tang's papers published in New Advances in Mathematics.

He did not quote it, but simply proved the mathematical formula in another way. However, the way he thought and worked out the proof made it difficult for me not to associate him with Li Tang.

It seems that I guessed right, it is him!"

Before the call was hung up, Leslie's happy laughter was heard, as if he had received some reward.

Luo Laite looked at his mobile phone, then immediately jumped on the keyboard and quickly typed the two words "Li Tang" into the search engine.

Looking at the words "Founding Future Technology Research Institute Co., Ltd." that appeared in the search results, Rowlett became ecstatic again.

Haha, I can actually take advantage of the traffic of “New Advances in Mathematics”, so cool!

At this moment, on the computer desktop, the prompt message box that was once thought to be a virus, in Rowlett's opinion, was emitting a joyful green light!
　Book friends, the recommendation position is critical at this moment, don't stop collecting and reading!
