Replay 07: Opening the Temple of Learning

Chapter 86 Undergraduates and postgraduate students, come and listen to my lecture! (Yesterday's third update)

After hearing what Dean Zhao said, many teachers were very envious.

Look at how good Dean Zhao’s attitude is now. It is completely different from when he usually scolds teachers and students.

As expected, strength is the basis for everything.

Chen Qiyi also hurried over.

He was very worried that Lu Shan had fallen into Zhao Cheng's trap and accidentally went to study at the Computer College.

Zhao Cheng felt very unhappy when he saw Chen Qiyi coming.

Chen Qiyi said, "Xiao Lu, Dean Zhao has already spoken, you can ask for any conditions you want."

"Your browser project really makes our Dean of the Faculty of Science proud."

"What does this mean?"

“This shows that mathematics is the foundation of all applied disciplines.”

Zhao Cheng said: "Without applied disciplines, basic disciplines are nothing. It is not necessarily that if you study how the universe works, technology will be able to advance and society will develop, but will you still have food to eat?"

The two professors were bickering with each other, which made people laugh and cry.

Lu Shan ignored the two of them and directly opened the server backend.

He was indeed in trouble.

Since the student server used by the School of Computer Science is only used by students for daily experimental classes, its performance is limited.

As the number of end users increases, the server's performance obviously cannot keep up.

Lu Shan did not expect that although the current DAU (number of active users) has reached 3000, it is 2000 more than the 1000 he saw a few days ago.

The most important thing is that the number of simultaneous online users and the online time of these daily active users are very impressive.

This results in the data crawling and output speed becoming very slow when the server is fully loaded.

According to the performance of the computer school student server, it can guarantee simultaneous use by approximately 2000 people.

If there are more people, the user experience will drop sharply.

How can I see user feedback?
The app download pages of this era did not have user feedback like those in later generations.

But Lu Shan learned from his conversation with President Zhao that a large proportion of the users of this application should be IT workers.

So many IT workers discovered this browser at once, so there must be relevant channels, and it was not just found accidentally by downloading web pages.

Lu Shan began to search for relevant Internet IT forums on the Internet.

See if there is any mention of the Extreme Browser.

As expected, in the Tianya Computer Technology column, topics related to Jiyue Browser have always been quite hot.

Lu Shan briefly browsed the web page.

Related posts from the past few days are:
"Why is the server shut down? Can you check if Jiyue's server is shut down?"

"Yes, we can't log in either. What's going on? Call Jiangzhou University right away."

The content of the posts in the past two days is.

“I can log in, but why is the speed so slow?”

“Sometimes it still shows that the server has crashed, and you have to refresh a few times before you can get in.”

"Is Jiangzhou University planning to officially launch the Extreme Browser or just conduct a test? If they don't have the money to upgrade the server, they can just sell the technology to us and we can invest in optimizing it." "It was fine in the morning, but after 5pm the server became extremely stuck and it took me a long time to load a web page."

It seems that the servers used by students can no longer meet the growing user demand.

The country is still using 2G network, which is inherently slow. In addition, most of the resources pushed by Lu Shan’s Jiyue browser are text resources, so less server redundancy is required, and the server performance should be barely sufficient.

However, as the number of users increased, the contradiction between server performance and the number of users and user needs gradually became apparent.

That requires a server with stronger performance and larger memory.

This is why the server responds very slowly in the afternoon or evening when the number of users logging into the Extreme Browser reaches its peak.

Lu Shan did not immediately put forward his requirements for the server, but simply introduced the performance of his browser and some algorithms to Zhao Cheng.

Lu Shan said: "With the advent of the mobile Internet era, the era of network fragmentation is inevitable. Information and news push services are bound to become popular types in the computer field. How users can read information that truly meets their needs is the key issue."

"President Zhao can see that the information pushed by our browser and the reading time are approximately within three minutes."

"These three minutes can be your restroom time, or your free time from work or study."

“That’s what we call fragmented time.”

"So when I was working on the algorithm model, the first thing I did was to build a user interest model, the second was to combine the collaborative filtering push algorithm with the ontology, and finally I used a mathematical method to build a BP neural network, and after the neural network prediction, I got the final push result..."

"The specific mathematical algorithm is..."

Lu Shan was interrupted by Zhao Cheng when he was halfway through his speech.

Zhao Cheng immediately called Li Meiling in the office of the School of Computer Science and asked Li Meiling to immediately notify all graduate students and undergraduates in the School of Computer Science to go to the academic lecture hall 201 to listen to the report.

"The report will be in half an hour. Graduate students must attend and undergraduates who are willing to listen can attend. I suggest that everyone come and listen."

Zhao Cheng said to Lu Shan embarrassedly, "Student Lu Shan, I think your research on the information push algorithm of the hybrid push mode is very inspiring to our School of Computer Science."

“This is very cutting-edge applied research.”

"I will take up an hour of your time. Please give a brief academic report on the information push algorithm of the hybrid push mode in the academic lecture hall."

"I'll ask graduate students and undergraduates to come and listen. I wonder if you'd be willing to do that."

This Zhao Cheng must be used to being a leader.

After arranging for graduate students and undergraduates to attend the lectures, I asked Lu Shan for his opinion on whether he had time to give an academic report.

Isn't this asking the guest what killing a chicken is?
This is what leadership is like in this era.

When dealing with things, I always start from my own perspective and then seek other people's opinions.

However, Lu Shan was not angry. Giving lectures to graduate students and undergraduates was a good opportunity to accumulate points.

Moreover, the Extreme Browser does need better hardware support.

If Lu Shan wants to get something for free, it doesn’t matter if he just gives a class.

Chen Qiyi also quickly called the office of the School of Science and asked the teachers of the School of Science to at least arrange for graduate students in mathematics-related majors to come and attend the lectures, and for undergraduate students who are willing to come as much as possible.

This is the specific practice of various mathematical methods in computer applications. It is always better to let students see and hear the practical content than to take theoretical classes.

Lu Shan agreed.

The front row seats in the 201 Academic Lecture Hall are all full.

Sorry, I went to the hospital urgently yesterday and some typos were not corrected. I have corrected them this morning. Thank you all for your monthly tickets and recommendation tickets!
