Blooming America

On September 1, it was only two o'clock in the morning.

Robert took a sip of coffee, and then continued to discuss with the people at Microsoft.

The newly designed 32-bit Capricorn CPU has just been completed, and for Robert, this is undoubtedly good news.

After completion, all they have to do is to start designing a new set of operating systems.

So, the people from Microsoft came over.

It is not difficult to design an operating system, but they have to do more than just that, they are to design the most optimized operating system for the Capricorn cpu.

The two companies can almost be said to be a strategic partnership, so they don't care about anything else at all.

x-system, this system is the new 32 that Microsoft will develop next

Bit operating system.

Because the computer has undergone major changes, the system also needs to be innovated and corrected.

"Although Capricorn contains a display core, the function of this display core is not powerful, and it can only guarantee the operation under normal conditions. We are developing the second generation of graphics equipment in the process of developing our new generation of graphics equipment. , Will adopt a more advanced architecture..."

Robert is talking about the future development of his company.

They are ventilating now.

The discussions between the two parties at this time have allowed Microsoft to prepare early.

If the operating system developed by Microsoft is not compatible with the operation between the Capricorn core display and the ** graphics card, then things will become very troublesome.

According to Catherine’s idea, after inserting a new generation of ** graphics card, the Capricorn cpu

The graphics card part in it will act as a function similar to a physical accelerator card, which can give your own cpu

Work hard at the back.

If the operating system is not compatible with this new feature of Catherine, it will be more than worth the loss.

Nuclear shows no, in fact, Catherine's Capricorn can be called "apu", this apu is so powerful, but if the system itself does not support it, it would be cheating.

Therefore, Robert has to make statistics with the people from Microsoft. The other party has to record a lot of things, and these things can't make mistakes.

And there is a reason why Catherine's products are analogous to "apu".

When Katherine's product was first designed, it was the idea of ​​integrating the display device into the cpu to allow the cpu and gpu to be unified together. This is the Capricorn.

As far as AMD in the 21st century is concerned, the apu they created uses physical integration and unified power supply, that is, built on a single chip, unified two-way power management runs with heterogeneous computing. The intee is only packaged into a processor, not only the chip is divided into two pieces (for example, snb graphics are 45nm process, core is 32nm, ivb is 22nm), the integration of power supply and interface is not as good as apu, but because It is not the same chip, so there is no mutual influence caused by heterogeneous computing. From a more rigorous definition, apu and core graphics should not be confused.

In other words, although viewed from the outside, such a product is integrated, but the skin can be opened to develop, and there is a clear distinction.

It can be described by mixing tofu with shallots... innocent.

In the original history, the fusion of intee didn't have a core until Catherine came to this era, instead of "using glue to put two nuclei together, as some people describe."

Catherine's approach is indeed prescient, but this brings difficulty to development.

As far as the original history is concerned, it is not without the old operating system. Except for the Apple series, the world-renowned w series are all 16-bit operating systems, even the later 95 and 98 series are compatible with 16-bit operating systems.

The 16-bit system has existed for a long time in the original history. Because the 16-bit system was very mature at the time, so in terms of compatibility, few people would abandon the 16-bit operating system, because if you do that, there is no doubt It is that a lot of previous software becomes no longer compatible.

Fortunately, Microsoft will not face this problem.

Because of the emergence of cloud systems, for the general public, they don't need to install any software on their own. They only need to purchase software on the cloud system.

The current payment methods are sufficient, although they are not as good as some later products such as "Alipay" or "Internet banking", but Catherine's ideas are now accepted by Americans. The payment method that you can buy what you want without leaving your house is very popular.

Although only virtual items are purchased in this way, Catherine does not intend to simply abandon this market.

Come back.

Catherine’s first 32-bit operating system not only needs to rewrite the kernel, but also needs some special design for the nuclear display, so the workload is very large.

These people have been with Robert until now, asking for detailed information about this cpu. Although they can find this thing, how can the manual be more detailed than the person?

In fact, Catherine sometimes feels a little upset because she knows that her actions seem to be a little hasty.

Too much, 32-bit system is indeed out, but this thing is not everyone's skills to play.

Catherine's requirements for this system are largely based on the 3 system, and the taskbar is simply a copy of 95.

It is undeniable that the taskbar is indeed the icon of a generation of classic "start", as long as people who have contact with the computer, almost all of them can be familiar with it.

In the new generation of operating systems, engineers will rewrite a kernel. This kernel guarantees partial compatibility. The other thing that they care about most is to use the power of the 3-bit operating system.

Although Catherine's system is a 32-bit operating system, compared to the historical oral system, Catherine's system can be described as crude.

In the original history, the world's first 31-bit cpu system, the legendary 95 is the first operating system that supports 32-bit. This system is a mixed 16-bit and 32-bit version. The version number is 4.0. It was issued by Microsoft on August 24, 1995.

In the previous column, it can only be said that it can be simulated.

It is equipped with the function of simulating a 32-bit operating system, and because of this, the display effect of the film has greatly improved, and it has good support for the most advanced Jin processor at the time. This system also provides support for virtual device drivers (), which greatly improves the system's scalability. Computer users no longer have to check whether their hardware can be supported by the system, because he can completely install another driver. program.

In order to help manufacturers and software companies develop application programs, Microsoft released "wane-pment-t", which provides programmers with commonly used functions and program call libraries during development, which speeds up development, but also artificially integrates programmers with system hardware resources. Isolated.

Catherine's products are completely different from those in history.

At this stage when 32-bit cpu just appeared, the operating system has already been developed.

Historically speaking, 32-bit CPUs existed quite a few mature CPU products before Microsoft released 95. These are completely two concepts.

However, in history, Microsoft's early development is actually only a graphics application based on the s system, and this does not use s to perform file operations. It wasn't until the release of 2000 that I completely got rid of s and became a truly ** operating system.

Of course, for Catherine, there is no pressure at all.

The new generation of operating systems will continue to use optical drives as storage devices.

Now intee has developed a long-life bald head. This bald head can double the life of the bald head in front of the mosquito. The optical disc and the bald head will almost be scrapped at the same time. In this way, the most common use time limit of this operating system is guaranteed. .

On the other hand, the new generation of products will use 550mb optical discs. In other words, such a capacity can even kill 98PS or even 2000. Among them, what drives are all for pw systems. There is no pressure.

And because it is a native 3-bit operating system ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, the efficiency of pw will be much higher than that of the list.

Even with the acceleration of nuclear display, this new product can be more efficient.

But speaking of it, because of Catherine, there is no s operating system in this history. Although there is the original x system, the impact of this system is not as far-reaching as s, and it has been gradually replaced by the x-stangate system. A more foolish system makes people like the new system more and it is more convenient to use.

If you really want to describe it, then the original x can be said to be s, and the subsequent x-stangate system should be a fusion of NT and 98. As for the pw system currently under development, it should be xp. In terms of graphics and performance, there is a big gap between the two...

But in Catherine's mind, this is indeed the positioning of her new product.

This is also the reason why Catherine named her product "". This will be a real window and a real beginning.

The 32-bit era...! .
