BEIJING cheap jordan 12 dark grey mens , Oct. 3 (Xinhua) -- Using a supercomputer like a magic cube as tall as a two-story building, Chinese scientists want to calculate the future of the earth.
They hope to calculate almost everything in natural earth systems from the growing of a cloud to the changes of climate hundreds or thousands of years in the future with the buzzing, blue "magic cube", in the Zhongguancun Software Park in northern Beijing.
Several research institutes under the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), including the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, the Institute of Computing Technology, the Computer Information Center and Sugon Information Industry Company jordan 12 dark grey suede , have jointly unveiled the special supercomputer named the prototype of Earth System Numerical Simulator and the software "CAS Earth System Model 1.0" running on the device.
The prototype is about one tenth the size of a future earth simulator, which is still in design, and will be used by scientists to develop the final simulator, and conduct short-term climate forecasts and control of air pollution.
Ding Yihui, a member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and an expert of China Meteorological Administration, said the prototype and the software are a breakthrough for China's development of the earth systems simulator, and will provide a solid basis for the integrated study of weather and climate.
Zhang Minghua jordan 12 dark grey mens , a researcher with the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, said the "CAS Earth System Model 1.0" includes the complete modules representing the climate and biological systems, all scientifically interconnected.
"The computing system can simulate the atmosphere, ocean currents, land surface processes and biological systems," Zhang said.
"Even factors from space like cosmic rays and solar wind can be simulated in the device, which is very powerful www.airjordan12darkgrey.com ," said Ding, adding that the simulator could help scientists study climate changes at least 30 years ahead and the change of PM 2.5. air pollutant particles.
"It will play an important role in reducing greenhouse gases and improving the climate," Ding said.
Cao Zhennan, assistant to the CEO of the Sugon Information Industry Company, said earth system simulation needs a high-performance computer. The "magic cube", with a total investment of 90 million yuan (about 14 million U.S. dollars), has a peak computing power of at least 1 petaflop air jordan 12 dark grey release , making it one of China's 10 most powerful computers. Its total storage capacity is over 5PB.
Using the prototype of the Earth System Numerical Simulator, it takes about one day to calculate changes over six years in the atmospheric cycle, the water cycle, the rock and soil cycle, the biological cycle and other natural cycles, said Zhou Guangqing, director of the information center of the Institute of Atmospheric Physics.
According to Zhu Jiang air jordan 12 dark grey 2017 , head of the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, the final simulator is expected to have a computing capacity 10 times higher than the current prototype.
The International Boxing Federation (IBF) has chosen Beijing as the site of its annual convention next year, the boxing body said Monday.
IBF's China branch, IBF China, has scheduled regional ranking events since March, with more than 30 bouts having been held in seven Chinese -cities.
IBF China President Wang Ruihang was also promoted as executive president of IBF Asia on Monday. He said cooperation between the Chinese and American sides would help build better ties between the two nations.
IBF's strategy of developing boxing stars is widely considered a grassroots one.
"It exceeded my expectations every time I come to China," IBF President Daryl Peoples told the Global Times.
"It's not just about immediately having a champion but about sharing a common -vision [with the Chinese] of developing professional boxing in China."
Chinese boxing is spearheaded by flyweight boxer Zou Shiming air jordan 12 dark grey for sale , who won two golds at the 2008 and 2012 Olympics during his amateur days. Names like Xiong Chaozhong, Yang Lianhui (Ik Yang) and Zhang Junlong are also in the top tier.
The latest high-profile bout involving a Chinese boxer came in March, when Zou fought for the IBF flyweight title, where he was defeated by Amnat -Ruenroeng of Thailand.
"I'm sure China is a very -talent-rich country," Peoples said. "Somewhere out there are 10 more Zou Shiming."
He said to have more -athletes exposed is the reason why the IBF is behind the grassroots fights in China.
"We want to develop boxing, they all deserve an -opportunity," said Peoples air jordan 12 dark grey pre order , who became president in 2010.
"I think in the next five years IBF China is going to produce several athletes on world stage, and this is just the beginning.
"Once we get more into fighting professional style boxing, I think we can find boxing stars in every division."
The organizers vowed to host 100 fights in China in 2015, with the number of registered fighters reaching 300.
In a boxing world dominated by male boxers, 23-year-old female boxer Hu Die has emerged as a leading star in the IBF China series.
A Zhuzhou, Hunan Province native, Hu made her -story of improving her family's living conditions through boxing better known through the TV show air jordan 12 retro dark grey , Dream of China, in 2013.
Boxers are not the only targets of IBF in China, as the sanctioning body also has seminars for Chinese judges and referees.
Zhang Xudong, senior referee of IBF China, said two -sessions have been held, with Chinese referees able to handle all the events held in the -country.
