Chapter 81 The Difference between Magic Network Server and Electronic Computer

While reading the document, Hans explained to Madoka the issues related to the Magic Network server. He finally discovered that although the scientific principles of electronic computers are relatively complete, for the Magic Network server, there is an essential difference between a binary-based electronic computer and the Magic Network server. It’s still hard to come up with a spark of inspiration.

"Alas..." Hans sighed and closed the document.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Hans's lost expression, Madoka asked worriedly, "Is it troublesome?"

"Whether it's a problem I'm struggling with, or I want to explain it to you, it's quite troublesome." Hans shook his head helplessly, "Do you know the electrical knowledge of computer principles and physics? If not, don't ask."

"I know that computers only use binary, and electrical science only knows what they learned in middle school courses." Madoka answered with some curiosity and anxiety.

"Where do you get such great curiosity? Forget it, I'll just tell you. If you can't understand, don't ask me to explain. Do you know why computers use binary?" Seeing Madoka's face full of curiosity, Hans thought for a moment. I decided to talk briefly.

"I don't know much about this..." Madoka replied a little embarrassed.

"Excluding the factors of competition between the United States and the Soviet Union, from a technical point of view: 1. From a feasibility perspective, using binary has only two states: 0 and 1. There are many electronic devices that can represent the two states of 0 and 1, such as switches. The on and off, the on and off of the transistor, the positive and negative residual magnetism of the magnetic element, the level of the potential level, etc. can all represent the two numbers 0 and 1. Using binary, electronic devices have the feasibility of implementation.? ?2. In terms of simplicity of operation, binary arithmetic has fewer rules and simple operations, which greatly simplifies the hardware structure of the computer operator. There are 55 formulas in the decimal multiplication formula, while there are only four rules in binary multiplication. ??3 .Logically speaking, since binary 0 and 1 correspond to the logical codes false and true, and have the theoretical basis of logical algebra, it is natural to use binary to represent binary logic." Seeing Madoka's confused face, Hans couldn't help but shake his head. Shaking his head, "You should be able to understand some of the original electronic circuits, right?"

"I still understand what the calculation rules and circuit switching mean, but the rest is just..." Madoka felt a little guilty and her tone was very weak.

"Binary logic... is too troublesome to explain. Let me give you an inappropriate example of binary." Hans was helpless, but he didn't want to dampen Madoka's eagerness to learn. "In ancient times, the transmission of information relied on Do you know about Wolf Smoke?" Seeing Xiao Yuan nodding, Hans continued: "Different amounts of Wolf Smoke can get clear information based on the agreed information. Under a simple assumption, one smoke represents a cavalry, and two smokes represent a cavalryman. It means two cavalrymen. Of course, this is just an example and does not represent the real situation."

"In the electrical age, the effect of smoke was replaced by more efficient methods, such as telegraphs. The army used to have semaphores and lanterns. Of course, the encoding they used was not binary, and most of them were based on Morse code. Code book , have you heard of it?”

"I've heard of it, I've heard of it!" Madoka nodded seriously!

"Did you know? The smallest unit of computer storage - byte, which is represented by an 8-bit binary array. It is 8 0s or 1s. Different combinations represent a letter. You can understand it as a group of 8 of a light bulb, 0 or 1 represents the on and off of the light bulb. Because this switch has a sequence, it does not need to be duplicated. It can express a total of 0 results from 255 to 256. The switch and transmission process are implemented and operated by machines. , after getting the final result, what is presented to us through conversion is the letter information." Xiao Yuan nodded to express understanding!

"As for an Internet server, to put it bluntly, it is a computer with more powerful performance, higher stability and security than a home PC. The functional principles are exactly the same."

"But the current root of the Magic Network server is not an electronic computer. The essence of the Magic Network is not a magic transmission network. What it transmits is actually magic!" Hans raised his hand and showed MM's magic mark to Madoka, "And MM is In fact, it is a complex active-guided magic circle. Inject magic power to activate it. It will use the originally described magic to record pictures, images, sounds or text, forming a predetermined magic and sending it to the recipient. The role of the root server is to relay , relay this magic, convert it to prevent conflicts caused by differences in the magic systems of each world, and then send it again to recipients in other worlds. It does not require calculation or conversion like an electronic computer, which is the essential difference between the two."

"And I plan to break away from the root and let each world have its own server. The issue of magic source does not need to be considered, but the relay, storage and conversion of the root server use the cause and effect we talked about before. And I looked up information on electronic computers to see if I could use scientific principles to come up with other solutions that do not require the use of root cause and effect. After all, the root server currently used cannot be separated from the development of other servers. Direction, currently the only way is to control the cause and effect called by the root server, which is really too difficult."

Hans rubbed his temples with both hands, then closed his eyes, "I don't need to explain the result. You should have guessed it when you saw me sighing."

"Well... I think you can think of and create a magic network that spans the world and connects the transmission of information in various worlds. This is already amazing!" Madoka's eyes flickered, "Don't be discouraged! I believe you can definitely find it. Come up with new ways to build servers!”

"I'm not depressed, I'm just a little depressed when I find that my train of thought is a dead end." Hans stopped and opened his eyes, waving one hand towards Madoka.

"Now! Now!" Madoka suggested excitedly: "Let's see something interesting and relax our mood!"

"Good idea!" Hans agreed, then looked through his collection, "Want to see something exciting or adventurous? Or something healing? Or something funny? Let me tell you first, I don't want to see the magical girl series right now. look!"

"Uh--" Madoka was confused by Hans's sudden request for advice and his clear refusal not to look at the magical girl. She didn't know what to choose and struggled for a while.

"If you don't choose, you will do what I want! Although I have seen most of them." Hans urged.

"Then let's look at the healing type." Madoka replied a little depressed.

"Healing system? Let's take a look at this!" Hans said and clicked on "Steel Refining 03 Edition" to play!
