Blooming America

"S is unparalleled with respect to S. Our IBM should start from this regard."

John Cork is trying to convince Schovi Sen.

"Is there any advantage of S with respect?" Xiaovusen is still very magnificent in terms of money.

John Cork, born in 1925, in 1946, a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering in Duke University (TY), after a few years of actual work, returned to the mother school to study graduate students, and acquired a Ph.D. in mathematics in 1956. After that, he entered IBM and became the technical person in charge of 360 mainframe.

And what he is doing now is to develop their own CPU for IBM.

The cooperation with Xian Tong Company is still a pleasant, but Xian Tong has begun to cooperate in Motorola, so IBM must develop its own CPU before they can not be subject to people.

"Intel how to suppress the cost to such a low low?" John Cork investigated for a long time.

Although IBM has the ability to produce CPUs, technical reserves are also sufficient, and even the copyright of language, they can also be around.

However, there is a problem that the chip cost production produced by IBM is too high. This problem has always been plagued with IBM, and even if Xian Tong is in this regard, it is impossible to compete with Intel.

Later, after the survey, INTEL actually built the factory in Taiwan, low labor costs and production costs, and pressed the total cost to the lowest.

And there is still a little, that is, Intel's good quality rate, because the waste is very small, so the cost is low, this advantageous advantage of other companies cannot match. This is also solved. After studying the Intel's CPU, they found that Intel actually abandoned the previous aluminum process, but used copper crafts - in fact, the so-called micron process, nano-process, refers to These aluminum wires or copper wires are width. Although there is improved on the production cost, it is due to the rise of the good rate, but the cost is reduced.

In the production process, the other party has opened an IBM one level, and IBM's research and development costs have always been known for its very high, and it is not comparable to the cost advantage and the other party.

So, it is going to start from another aspect.

"I was studying our system and found that the simple instructions accounted for 20 of the total instructions accounted for 80 in program calls, while complex instructions of the number of instructions 80 were only 20 opportunities.

Because of this, we can get a S system by streamlined commands. "

The so-called S is refers to a complex instruction set computer. The most classic Intel X86 series is the S system. The S system refers to a streamlined instruction set computer. In the 21st century, it is mainly used in devices such as servers. The core of IBM in PS3 is also use S.

The number of instruction systems is limited by the number of bits of the instruction opcode. If the opcode is 8 bits, the number of instructions is up to 256, and the width of the instruction is difficult, and the intel scheme is an operation code extension. The back of the opcode is the address code, and some instructions are used without address code or only a small amount of address code. So, you can extend the operating code to these locations. If an operating code of a command system is 2, then there are a different instructions of 00, 01, 10, 11. Now use the 11 as a reservation, expand the operation code to 4 digits, then there can be 00, 01, 10, 1100, 1101, 1110, 1111 seven instructions. Among them, 1100, 1101, 1110, 1111 The address code of these four instructions must be less than two.

Because of this, the complex instruction set computer is running, it is necessary to have some resource to handle addressing and decoding, which is an advantage.

"Computers with complex instruction systems have strong ability to handle advanced languages, which is beneficial to improve your computer. But this is not absolute. With the development of the times, the speed of CPU will be getting faster and faster. Complex instructions, variable instruction length, a variety of addressing methods, but wait until the future, this will become an obstacle. When decoding, the time is wasted, at that time, it has far exceeds S At that time, S will be gradually eliminated, and S will become mainstream. "

Because the command is simple, directly, the efficiency of S will be higher.

"The outlook is very good, but in fact it is unlikely ..." Xiaovisen laughs, "Microsoft has developed the operating system, do you have something to know?"

Cork hesitated, then nodded: "I have heard that this operating system has increased our sales by 30."

"Yes, this is our questionnaire." Xiaovisen handed a document to the other party: "According to the investigation of customers, the 80 customers say they want our next-generation computer to be able to be compatible with Microsoft. Software. "

Although the price of an operating system is $ 29999, the people who buy them are still temporary.

"They are generally dissatisfied with the efficiency of 360 mainframes, but the good feelings of software are maintained at 90."

Cork has understood the meaning of small Watson: "That is to say ... we have been kidnapped?"

Yes, in terms of large machines, Microsoft's products have reached a level of WS.

"Microsoft is a software company, and their operating system is just a platform, but with this platform, Microsoft's other products can enter our mainframe ..."

This is the most troublesome thing.

Lighting is not possible to monopolize so many markets, but through the application under this operating system, it can achieve this effect.

IBM's own development software?

Just joke, IBM has never done such a thing, and even if IBM has developed its own product, Microsoft's products have cultivated a certain "loyalty" in the customer base, if the new generation of IBM's large machine If you use a S system, many things you have prior are not compatible. At that time ... Orange will take advantage of it.

Although Catherine makes the previous Apple to the present oranges and apples, the other party still exists for their own threats.

"So we launched the best time to launch s, we can not only fight the market, but also able to counterattack the other's market" Cork suddenly thought of a little.

"Well ..." I heard this sentence, Wadono couldn't help but nod.

Indeed, when the architecture of S has not been able to bring a bigger speed to the computer, then s can be played.

"We can put it into Japan to apply."

After entering Japan, Xiaovisen discovered that it is a good place here because there is no competitor, so you don't have to worry about it.

Although some Japanese manufacturers have begun to launch a new generation of products, these Japanese people are unbearable in front of IBM. History has been 30 years in advance, but IBM is still in the market with its powerful strength, hard-eracialization.

Compared with the United States, Japan is really a place. Women's, used to experiment with the large machine of new S, it is good. If the market reaction is good, then in the US market application, if the market reaction is not, then his loss will not be too big.

......

"The game starts fast ..."

Come to the venue in Los Angeles, Catherine looked at a busy worker, could not help but sigh.

"Well, it seems that the number of people this year will be more than in previous years." Although the game has not started, there is a lot of people standing outside.

"It should be a game enthusiast?" These people should come over and see the venue.

"Probably ..." Elsa looked back at the meeting that has been completed and is being arranged.

After the game, it will become an electronic game center, the first 16-bit arcade, will be listed here.

"Unfortunately, there are still a lot of games that can't be played ..." Catherine shook his head.

"We have the most advanced game equipment. Can you play?" Elsa didn't know what Catherine refers to, she didn't understand what "CS" and "Star Bione" and the like ...

"I imagine the game is not this." Catherine looked at the people on the street, then compared with it: "Think about it, the game's picture should be exactly the same as the reality, it is best to have one aspects of glasses. The orientation of the super display ... Hey, there must be a gesture inductance, and you can identify it in one way ... "

"Maybe it can be realized after a hundred years?" Elsa also learned Catherine's spit.

"Don't you feel amazing?"

The most critical place seems to be noticed.

"It is really amazing, but it is unlikely to be realized, it seems that the science fiction is more intense, put in reality ..."

Some are unlikely?

"But I feel that I think it is more likely to be realized by more than those space plans for the US military."

According to Elsa's statement, isn't it a pentagon more sci-fi?

"Maybe in 2001, it is ..." Elsa suddenly thought of "2001 Space Roaming" that heard before he had seen.

"Well ... I didn't say it."

(My idea is actually more practical, it is good)

......

Yesterday, I finished ... I don't know what to say ...

Ming, continue to test after tomorrow, everyone bless me ....
