World’s first exascale supercomputer prototype built by China

Scientists in China are developing the world’s first computer capable of performing 1 quintillion calculations per second, according to state media.

A prototype of the exascale computer, described as a “super supercomputer,” is expected to be ready before 2020, and will be 200-times more powerful than the country’s first petaflop computer Tianhe-1, recognized as the World’s fastest in 2010,” said Zhang Ting, an application engineer with the Tainjin-based National Supercomputer Center, Xinhua news agency reported.


The Asian giant built the world's fastest supercomputer, the Sunway TaihuLight machine, in June last year, which was twice as fast as the previous number one & It used only locally made microchips, making it the first time a country has taken the top spot without using US technology.
Right now, the fastest supercomputers in the world can make quadrillions — or thousands of trillions — calculations each second.

In June last year, China overtook the United States for the first time as the country with the most supercomputers on a list ranking the 500 most powerful computers in the world. Of the top 10 fastest computers, two are in China and five in the US as of November, the ranking said. Others are in Japan and Switzerland.

Advance features

1.      The latest machine will lead the world in data transmission efficiency, its creators claimed, as well as have significant applications within the fields of Big Data and cloud computing.

2.      Using the standard system of metric measurement, a quadrillion is referred to using the prefix “peta.” So, the speed of these computers is calculated in petaflops, and computers operating at this level are referred to as petascale machines.

3.      Following this system of prefixes, the next step up from “peta” is “exa” — meaning a quintillion or a billion billion. A computer that can compute this number of calculations each second is measured in exaflops and is said to be an exascale machine.

How to Be the Star of a Party

There are two types of glitches people can have with events. The first is that a lot of people find parties tedious, stressful, and exhausting.

The second issue is when someone wants to go to an event and meet people at it, but they're not sure how to do that.

But most people enjoy parties. Because they are supposed to be exciting, not terrifying.

Even sometimes extroverts face a challenge in parties if they don’t know anyone. So how we need to put ourselves in a better position in a party.

1.  Calm your nervousness

Someone invite you to the party. It means as per the knowledge of your host you can be a value addition to the party. So allow yourself to feel privileged.

Sometimes Social anxiety can slowly turn into a negative opinion loop. So envisage yourself moving about with self-confidence even if you have a little anxious inside.

Also, think about some positive outcomes for you if you attend this party: You might get valuable new business networks. You might run into some old associates or schoolmates.

       2.  Offer to Help the Host

Always make sure you know why the event is happening and who the host is. At events, it’s a rescuer. Once you reach, find the host, Praise him/her for the great party, and the number of people there. In fact, if you don't know most of them, the host will perhaps introduce you around.

Offer your help to the host. It’s a courteous gesture, and it gives you something to do. Even if the host doesn’t want any help from your side, he or she will probably also introduce you to a few people so you can get the discussion going. Act as if you’re a host, not an invitee. 

Reach out to folks standing by themselves, be cooperative, kind, and honest. Don’t be anxious to approach people. Guests are merely friends you haven’t met yet. If you concentrate on the other person’s relaxation, you can lose your own self-consciousness.

3.  Smile and the whole world smiles with you

Even if you don't know anyone, walk into the room with a gentle smile like you know half of them. There are high Chances that you will get smiles in return. Sometimes it will make you feel even better if People reply to you with a smile of their own.

If you are smiling People will likely want to talk to you. A gentle smile will suddenly make the strangers talk with you.

         You’re more likely to look self-assured if you smile.

          Smiling can also help you to improve your temperament, and reduce strain.

        When you look confident, you’ll start to feel confident.

4.     Be a good auditor

·         Look around. If you see people in groups talking, walk towards them. When you are sure they have finished, put your opinions politely, not belligerently. When a topic of discussion over ask the people in the crowd about themselves. They will probably ask you the same.

·         Most of the time try to make eye contact with the person talking to you but not all time.

Let people speak everything they want to say without disturbing, and then ask a follow-up query that shows you have in fact heard them, and are concerned in hearing more.

·        Use nonverbal signs, such as eye contact, nodding, and leaning towards the person, to let the other people know that you're actively paying attention to what they want to say.

·        Ask plenty of open-ended questions about topics the other guest has brought up in order to keep the conversation going.

·        Generally, party discussions tend to be fun and light. So always give respect to the emotion of the person who is speaking.

5.  Pay a compliment  & Do use humor

 People always love to hear good things said about themselves. So first introduce yourself and before starting any conversation with someone say something nice about something the person. At most parties, other invitees will have taken care with their look and will appreciate the attention.

Try to share any funny things that happened to you. This will make you seem friendlier. People raise the value of humor.

But be careful not to share a story that may offend others. After all, humor is sometimes different across different sets of people.

6. End the conversation elegantly

Conversations at all parties start and end very quickly, and if you’re talking with someone you’ve just met, it’s a good choice not to keep the discussion going on too long.

Making small talk in which you can share general information with another person as a means to learn what you might have in mutual. For example, asking about favorite movies, dishes, hobbies are often a good way to find mutual interests.

Making small talk might lead to deeper discussion. You need to engage yourself in non-controversial topics to keep your discussion on a light note.

Since parties are all about moving and associating, try to spend no more than 15 or at most 20 minutes conversing with a single person or group of people. 

There comes a point in discussion — usually between the five- and 10-minutes marks — when it is cool to make a change. Like sometimes one of you will finish speaking, and there will be a bit of quietness. At that time you need to say, with sincerity, "It has been so good to see you. I really enjoyed your company.”

But always have an excuse ready before you leave in between your conversation. And this is a time when it’s fine not to tell the truth. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XpDdIISlYo  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LK3LTRyGgAc
