Chapter 796 A new generation of game console processors - golden age
Some people say that the source of human progress is to make ourselves more lazy and idle.
But from Catherine's point of view, that cannot be said.
The source of human progress is to make it easier for them to do less business. This is a very important reason why many people work hard.
Being able to play games comfortably, watch movies comfortably, enjoy yourself comfortably, and show off your sense of superiority comfortably is the source of people's motivation!
But speaking of it, if it were yesterday - that is, May 17, 1972, Catherine would probably still believe that human beings are a species of good moral character.
But now, Catherine doesn't think so anymore.
After using Tai Chi to push the Chinese to Corning, Catherine became ambitious to develop the next generation of technological products. Although these products may be too early, Catherine felt that such a thing could be put into the market
Go inside the school district.
Anyway, the students have already started eating the special food, so how about another special technology?
And even if the school does not have 300,000 people, according to Catherine's estimate, there are about 100,000 people. Her business will be a huge profit - the Pentagon won't care about such a small amount of money anyway, right?
At this time, the project for a new product for cooperation between Apple and Intel was placed in front of Catherine.
Although it was just to develop a new central processor for game consoles, Catherine was deeply shocked when she saw this project.
The processor of their plan is called golden-age, which means golden age.
Although Catherine's current product is APU, perhaps it is because of the customary name. Therefore, most people still call it CPU. However, in the core design of this new game console, even the concept of CPU has been abandoned, or in other words
Diluted it.
This CPU, codenamed "Golden Age", has one processor core. However, there are 8 auxiliary cores. This core will adopt a completely different architecture and working mode than now, with a working frequency of more than 200mhz.
Catherine was a little shocked by the concept of the GA processor, so when she saw this news, Catherine immediately asked Elsa to upload all the relevant information. At this time, Catherine really
Know what Apple and Intel want to do...
It looks like they are preparing for a big game...
The GA processor has built-in 8 cooperating processing units and has the ability to handle discrete calculations. This inspiration probably came from Catherine's supercomputer cluster. These eight SIMD-based co-processors are definitely high-tech and are not easy to study.
One-day and two-day .simd is single instruction multiple data flow. The concept proposed by Catherine has only existed on paper so far, but has not been actually applied. However, Intel and Apple are so proud of it.
Attitude, ready to study a new system.
——But just like the reason why Catherine was surprised, this kind of technology is also just a paper technology that Catherine has made up...
But in theory, GA has the speed of cattle X. It is probably because of such a new structure.
In addition, the Golden Age can support a special distributed computing technology. Multiple machines with the golden age can be connected together to share the computing power, thereby gaining higher efficiency.
Such a design concept is stunned, if it is not behind the company's BOSS. Catherine himself may not believe this seemingly some science fiction plan -this is too obvious, Apple is just a hanging player's appetite, and Intel
It is bragging.
But Catherine really saw the plan, and knew that the other party's research had begun.
This architecture looks very good, which will support the simultaneous operation of up to ten threads. But Catherine seems to be useless.
"This kind of thing in the game is not necessary, this function is castrated ..."
Catherine painted in circles in these functions that may not be very necessary.
In this way, it is guaranteed that until the end, you can have the most complete game console. It is castration, but it should be streamlined. The game does not need so many functions ...
The computer set used by GA is the RISC instruction system, and the RISC architecture has an inherent efficiency, and the processor structure is streamlined. Technically, it is significantly better than the popular CISC on the market. Because of this, there is almost almost almost the 21st century.
All super computer systems belong to the RISC system. The X86, which has been talked about by people, is actually limited to the PC environment. It is just because the PC is closely linked to people's work and life. Therefore, it is widely known.
Of course, RISC wants to use on the market, and there are many problems that need to be solved. In fact, the most effective instruction set should be an ultra -long instruction set. The ultra -long instruction set can definitely kill and streamlined instructions and complex instruction sets.
However, the requirements of the ultra -long instruction set have high requirements for developers. Basically, the level of a program or game writing itself determines the speed of this program. In other words, the level of the programmer directly determines the program.
Level, which is a very tricky existence for third -party developers. All such ultra -long instructions Ji Catherine did not intend to promote it.
... Of course, in form, patents are also necessary.
Speaking of the frequency of 200MHz, Catherine also understands.
Because Catherine has some defects now, in the laboratory, the highest frequency of Capricorn can reach 150MHz, but this must be at the cost of sacrifice instructions.
When you are below 100MHz, you have the best performance.
This problem will only change the situation when the next -generation processor appears.
However, the GA processor was originally designed towards high -frequency design. The concept of the GA processor determines its efficient position -the main processor and the collaborator are performed, and the kernel design is streamlined and efficient to achieve high -frequency operation.
The computing unit adopts a parallel structure.
Such a design is indeed bright.
In fact, Catherine's Capricorn and the previous SFC cores have similar auxiliary cores, but different from the conventional processors are the main core and auxiliary core in .ga.
In addition to the operating system, the main core of the main core, the application -related thread operation is completely operated by the auxiliary core of the collaborator. The threads of multiple applications will be distributed to each auxiliary core.
The design is very scientific.
Catherine even felt as if she had been slapped in the face.
This vertically structured multi-core design is completely different from the dual-core processor planned by Catherine. Each processing core of Catherine's dual-core CPU has an equal status, and each core can complete all operations independently, which embodies a large-scale
And the whole computing idea. So if you want to become a dual-core, the frequency issue will become a flaw - in other words, after dual-core, it will be a little difficult to increase the frequency.
In the GA processor, each processing core focuses on its own tasks, relies on each other, and cooperates with each other. The simplification of tasks also allows each core to be designed to be streamlined and efficient. Therefore, the working frequency can easily reach a level similar to that of Capricorn.
Such a processor cannot reach heights.
(But why is there a strong sense of déjà vu...)
Catherine muttered. In her previous life, Catherine knew more about CPUs, so she also had a lot of knowledge in this area. So at this time, Catherine had a sense of déjà vu.
However, although she had a sense of déjà vu, she had no more detailed memory. Catherine just shook her head.
"But this technology should not be developed just for game consoles..." Catherine thought for a moment, and since it supports distributed computing technology, then such a CPU is actually more suitable as the core of a supercomputer.
This function was also one of the functions castrated by Catherine.
Intel’s idea is to unify the auxiliary cores in this way, but Catherine feels that this will have an impact on the performance of the game. In theory, this mode is better when users have more cores, and as a game console, ga needs
is a distribution model more suitable for games.
"Well, if they can really design it, just talk to Mr. Clay. I believe he will be more interested in this kind of processor... But the name ga... uh..."
Why does Catherine always have a shiny golden guy in her mind who always shouts "chop suey, chop suey"...
"Change your name..."
Catherine thought about it at this time.
But Catherine thought about it and decided to forget it.
"Just add another processor."
Catherine thought so.
"Let's just call it cell." If the originally castrated functions are added back, this will be a very basic processor core that can be used in supercomputers.
But this is not enough. Catherine has added an error correction mechanism to the core of this cell, which is even better.
An error correction mechanism is necessary. If a processor has strong autonomous error correction capabilities, this kind of processor that can automatically recover from faults and realize true "never downtime" operation will definitely be an indispensable part of supercomputers.
Second option. If it is running, a processor can automatically detect whether the data being processed is damaged. If the data is incorrect, the processor will use some mechanism to automatically restore it to a normal state, thereby avoiding erroneous results.
Or shutting down the system, this will be absolutely perfect.
Take Catherine's cloud system for example. The cloud system needs to be shut down for inspection once a week, and so far, it has crashed twice - which has caused a loss of millions of dollars. Although the money is not much, but such
Small troubles are always noticeable.
If you change such a Cell's Cell, the cloud system will be more stable.
Catherine was unscrupulous to steal the name of IBM's products in history, and then sit on his own sofa with a good look, and then looked at the processor plan of Intel and Apple ...
"But can it be realized ..." Catherine muttered.
Does this seem to belong to the same black technology, right? Your own CPU can really be so good?
