Trades to be any scholar, after hearing this simple request, perhaps exciting being wild with joy. 换做任何一个学者,在听到这个简单请求之后,恐怕都会兴奋的欣喜若狂。 After all Super Computer is very expensive/noble, even if rents is not cheap, David's commitment, is equal in several million and even more than ten million funds. But in comparison, his request merely is only, in the position of paper research agency, in addition the name of d.e.shaw research institute. 毕竟超算是很贵的,即使是租用也不便宜,大卫的这个承诺,可是等价于数百万乃至上千万的经费。而相比之下,他的要求仅仅只是,在论文研究机构的位置,加上d.e.shaw研究所的名字。 After hearing David's insignificant request, although Lu Zhou is insufficient to be wild with joy like these poor theory researchers, but was surprised big from his request as before. 在听到了大卫的这个微不足道的请求之后,陆舟虽然不至于像那些贫穷的理论研究者们一样欣喜若狂,但依旧从他的要求中感到了不小的意外。 Compares the profitable applied field research, the research of theoretical field will certainly lose money, moreover certainly will compensate a lot of money. 相比起有利可图的应用领域研究,理论领域的研究是一定会赔钱的,而且一定会赔不少钱。 Regarding the request of so rich internationalist spirit, Lu Zhou will not naturally reject. 对于如此富有国际主义精神的请求,陆舟自然是不会拒绝的。 Nods, he said joyfully: „This is very easy.” 点了点头,他欣然说道:“这很容易。” ...... …… In some sense, Lu Zhou chooses anton to conduct this experiment, has to a certain extent inevitable. 从某种意义上来说,陆舟选择anton进行这个实验,是具有一定程度上的必然性的。 The common general supercomputer, cannot very efficient develops the MDS. 一般的通用型超级计算机,并不能很高效的进行分子动力学模拟。 However anton is different, completely in it that on special-purpose asic completes the computation work, each chip lives for the computational chemistry. 然而anton不同,完全在专用的asic上完成计算工作的它,每一颗芯片都是为计算化学而生。 Altogether contains 512 operation nodes it, can by proteins of 23558 atomic compositions- in aqueous system, exceeds 17000 nanoseconds simulated times every day. 一共包含512个运算节点的它,可以在由23558个原子组成的蛋白质-水系统中,每天超过17000纳秒的模拟时间。 But in comparison, regarding general Super Computer that has the similar processor number, makes the parallel computing simulation speed in the same chemistry system, can only reach every day several hundred nanoseconds level. 而相比之下,对于一个拥有同样处理器数量的通用型超算,在相同的化学系统上做并行计算的模拟速率,只能达到每日数百纳秒的水平。 Also therefore, anton was called computational chemistry the nuclear weapon. 也正是因此,anton才被称之为计算化学界的核武器。 Has saying that David truly is a talent. 不得不说大卫确实是一个天才。 In financial large-scale parallel computing, or the high polymer chemistry domain is so. 无论是在金融还是大规模并行计算,亦或者高分子化学领域都是如此。 If not because anton was really expensive/noble, the common research agency could not use, said that will not permit the future some day, Committee Member Nobel will even consider that nominated him. 如果不是因为anton实在是太贵了,一般的研究机构根本用不起,说不准未来的某一天,诺贝尔委员甚至会考虑对他进行提名。 Like, because freezing electron microscope technology by biologist Yak Du of 17 years of chemistry prize nomination...... 就像因为冷冻电镜技术被17年化学奖提名的生物学家雅克・杜波谢一样…… After letting Jellicoe open own car(riage) is going back, Lu Zhou through Princeton University to Columbia University sends an application, the application here was one month of visiting scholar. 让杰里科开着自己的车回去之后,陆舟通过普林斯顿大学向哥伦比亚大学发了一份申请,申请在这里做一个月的访问学者。 Visits regarding his well-known scholar, Columbia University naturally opens both hands welcome. Even for his research, but also arranged a temporary dormitory in the nearby of research institute for him. 对于他这种知名学者前来访问,哥伦比亚大学方面自然是张开双手欢迎。甚至为了方便他的研究,还在研究所的附近为他安排了一间临时宿舍。 Under the funds sufficient condition, does not involve the fundamental research of patent dispute, is always easier than to reach the agreement the research of applied field. 在经费充足的条件下,不涉及专利权纠纷的理论研究,总是比应用领域的研究更容易达成共识。 Especially regarding two people who are not short of money, is so. 尤其是对于不差钱的两人来说,更是如此。 After signing a cooperation research agreement, stipulated the signature issue of operating region and paper of both sides simply, in the reality examining stools and urine quick arrangement. 在签订了一份合作研究协议之后,简单地规定了双方的工作范围和论文的署名问题,实验便很快安排上了。 Regarding two people cooperation research project, David also displays attaching great importance to maximum degree. 对于两人的合作研究项目,大卫也表现出来最大程度上的重视。 Not only turned down the experiment arrangement in original plan, reassigned the complete strength of entire d.e.shaw research institute, invests into this work. 不但推掉了原定计划中的实验安排,更是抽调了整个d.e.shaw研究所的全部力量,投入到这项工作中。 Quick, Lu Zhou then experienced, anton powerful battle efficiency. 很快,陆舟便见识到了,anton强悍的战斗力。 Same day that the experiment is conducted, in anton Super Computer center. 实验进行的当天,anton超算中心内。 The large-scale parallel computing project sits in front of the computer is ready in full battle array. 大规模并行计算工程坐在电脑前严阵以待。 Lu Zhou and David Station look in behind, calmly is waiting for the start of experiment. 陆舟和大卫站在后面看着,静静地等待着实验的开始。 „No. 1 experimental group has taken place!” “一号实验组已经就位！” „No. 2 experimental group has taken place!” “二号实验组已经就位！” „......” “……” „Starts to test!” “开始实验！” The deep blue signal light is glittering unceasingly. 湛蓝色的信号灯不断闪烁着。 In the digital world that virtual has, anton is relying on the strong operation strength, developed the simulation to the mathematical model that Lu Zhou provides. 在虚拟存在的数字世界中,anton凭借着强大的运算力,对陆舟提供的数学模型进行了模拟。 The first experiment, continued the entire nine hours! 第一次实验,持续了整整九个小时！ However, the result of experiment is not it is a pity that ideal. 然而遗憾的是,实验的结果并不理想。 Looks test report that the Super Computer center engineer submits, David is frowning, somewhat said troublesome. 看着超算中心工程师提交上来的实验报告,大卫皱着眉头,有些伤脑筋地说道。 „Was the mathematical model that you design too complex...... had the means to simplify?” “你设计的数学模型实在是太复杂了……有办法能简化吗？” „I try to simplify, but is very difficult.” Lu Zhou shakes the head. “我试着简化过,但很困难。”陆舟摇了摇头。 Words that can simplify, he has done, not when considers this issue now. 能简化的话,他早就做了,也不会等到现在才去考虑这个问题。 „That can only me try to find the solution,” David feels the chin, seriously pondered. “那只能我这边想想办法了,”大卫摸着下巴,认真地思考了起来。 He is not the world of mathematics expert, making him simplify these complex mathematical models he perhaps unable to achieve, but from the parallel computing angle considered that this issue, through improving the software lets a anton more efficient computation, theoretically can achieve. 他不是数学领域的专家,让他去简化那些复杂的数学方程他或许做不到,但从并行计算的角度去考虑这个问题,通过改进软件让anton更高效的计算,从理论上还是能做到的。 Lu Zhou said earnestly: „Asked.” 陆舟认真道:“拜托了。” „Does not need to be polite,” David beckons with the hand, said with the tone of cracking a joke, „at least in so far, these mathematical models that you take also in the anton area of competence. But if complex, perhaps only then waits till the quantum computer development to be mature, can improve your theory.” “不必客气,”大卫摆了摆手,用开玩笑的语气说道,“至少在目前为止,你拿出来的这些数学模型还在anton的能力范围之内。但要是再复杂一点的话,恐怕就只有等到量子计算机发展成熟,才能完善你的理论了。” ...... …… Lu Zhou does the visit research in Columbia University, is not worth desirably the matter of security, as he comes and goes out the d.e.shaw research institute frequently, this news then travelled in the campus in Columbia University quickly. 陆舟在哥伦比亚大学做访问研究,并不是什么值得刻意保密的事情,随着他频繁出入d.e.shaw研究所,这个消息很快便在哥伦比亚大学的校园中传开了。 Many people filled curiously to this 20-year-old Crafoord Prize and Adams chemistry prize winners. Few people can make the so outstanding achievement in so the age, particularly in maths and chemistry these two entirely different domains. 很多人对这位只有20多岁的克拉福德奖、亚当斯化学奖得主都充满了好奇。很少有人能在如此年纪就做出如此杰出的成就,尤其是在数学和化学这两个截然不同的领域。 Naturally, in is also not the student of Columbia University Lu Zhou most is interested, but is he opponent in lithium sulfur battery project- Mobil chemical industry. 当然,对陆舟最感兴趣的还不是哥伦比亚大学的学生,而是他在锂硫电池项目上的对手-美孚化工。 That side Lu Zhou the slightest sign of trouble, will a little let their anxious serious slightly. 陆舟那边稍微有点风吹草动,都会让他们紧张的不得了。 Do not say, is the so big movement...... 更不要说,是如此大的动作…… Binghamton University, in material science research institute. 宾汉顿大学,材料学研究所内。 A moment ago Woods who meets in New York, rushed to here hurriedly. 刚才在纽约开完会的伍兹,风风火火地赶到了这里。 „Bad news! Lu Zhou found David Xiao, moreover borrowed Super Computer from his hand.” “坏消息！陆舟找到了大卫・肖,而且从他手上借到了超算。” Regarding the message that Woods provides, Stanley had not felt too accidental, but projected the accidental/surprised line of sight to him: „Do you run toward the laboratory every other day have not related?” 对于伍兹提供的这个消息,斯坦利并没有感到太多意外,不过还是向他投出了意外的视线:“你三天两头往实验室这边跑没关系吗？” The matter that this few words can talk clearly, said in telephone on the line obviously. Besides this battery material, CEO of Exxon Mobil, should also some lot of important work to process. 这种一句话就能说清楚的事情,明明在电话里说就行了。除了这个电池材料之外,埃克森美孚的ceo,应该还有很多重要的工作要去处理。 „So long as you can snatch in front of them make the achievement not to relate,” sat on the sofa of laboratory, Woods expression was somewhat cloudy, was foul-mouthed the sentence, „was really unlucky! Why Lu Zhou will find David Xiao there suddenly, why is the anomaly that oil salt does not enter?” “只要你能抢在他们前面做出成果就没关系,”坐到了实验室的沙发上,伍兹表情有些阴沉,骂骂咧咧了句,“真是晦气！陆舟为什么会突然找到大卫・肖那里去,为什么偏偏是那个油盐不进的怪胎？” If and other laboratory cooperation, Exxon Mobil can actually by own influence, through these scientific research foundation by oneself being funded, has the money exchange the laboratory to exert pressure on these, making them delay the research progress. 如果是和其他实验室合作的话,埃克森美孚倒是可以凭借自己的影响力,通过那些由自己资助的科研基金,向那些存在资金往来的实验室施压,让他们拖延研究进度。 However David Xiao is an exception, this fellow is the Wall Street famous anomaly, makes the fund obviously, is actually not interested in money. 然而大卫・肖是个例外,这家伙是华尔街有名的怪胎,明明是做基金的,却对钱根本不感兴趣。 „Very normal, their one is to make the computation material, one is to make the computational chemistry, can urinate to arrive goes is not strange together.” Stands is waiting for the experimental result before the SEM, the expression of Professor Stanley said with ease, „you actually do not need such anxiously, perfect mathematical formula or theoretical model, if unable to carry out in the experiment finally, that is the guess of nihility.” “很正常,他们一个是做计算材料的,一个是做计算化学的,会尿到一块去并不奇怪。”站在扫描电镜前等待着实验结果,斯坦利教授的表情轻松地说道,“你其实没必要这么紧张,无论是多完美的数学公式或者理论模型,如果无法最终落实到实验中,那都是虚无的猜测。” Even your math flamboyant how? 就算你数学牛逼又如何？ How even if you did borrow Super Computer? 就算你借到了超算又如何？ The computer simulation experiment truly is a very promising method, but must carry out in the concrete experiment finally. 计算机模拟实验确实是个很有前途的方法,但最终还是得落实到具体的实验中。 In tries to learn the lessons unceasingly wrong, tried to find out that to key path, a is all the roads which must be taken of material science experiment. 在不断地试错中总结经验,摸索出一条通往重点的道路,是一切材料学实验的必经之路。 Very lucky, they have known the answer now, needs to do writes the process according to the answer merely. 很幸运,他们现在已经知道了答案,需要做的仅仅是照着答案写出过程。 Woods some said irritablily: „Now what I want to know, how long are we away from the end point also?” 伍兹有些急躁地说道:“我现在想知道的是,我们距离终点还有多久？” Is staring at the molecular model in screen, Professor Stanley clouds that the poor business conditions smile lightly. 盯着屏幕中的分子模型,斯坦利教授云淡风轻地笑了笑。 „Very near!” “已经很近了！”
