Abstract
China intends to close the technological gap from Western countries in microprocessor production by 2021. 46 new projects worth billions of dollars have already been launched in the country. Most of these projects receive direct or indirect state support, which creates a huge demand for domestic semiconductors. By a government decree, all servers in government offices and state-owned enterprises will be preferentially equipped with processors of domestic production. As a result, their sales are expected to grow at a rate of 20% annually. First of all, we are talking about “Loongson”, “Shenwei” and “Phytium” chips (the latter are the development of the Chinese military-industrial complex). The Shenwei processors, which have proved their effectiveness, are promising: they are the ones that run the world's most powerful supercomputer, Sunway Taihu Light, which consists of 10.65 million cores and performs 93 quadrillion operations per second.
Highlights
The decision to switch to domestic processors was made by the state after, in the midst of U.S.- Chinese trade disputes, the United States imposed sanctions against the Chinese ZTE corporation in April, banning it from supplying microprocessors and other equipment
The main microelectronic factory in China is the Taiwanese TSMC, over 80% of the shares of which belong to mainland China, and whose deputy director is Colonel of Chinese military intelligence, Den Lu
In particular, is to conduct a line of embedding a “spyware” (NUDT project “Stork”, development of hackers of the 15th zone) in microcircuits manufactured by this factory
Summary
The decision to switch to domestic processors was made by the state after, in the midst of U.S.- Chinese trade disputes, the United States imposed sanctions against the Chinese ZTE corporation in April, banning it from supplying microprocessors and other equipment. According to the elementary design base of China for high-performance computing systems and supercomputers, the following organizations and areas of work can be distinguished. 2. National University of Defense Technology of China (NUDT), the Most Significant of the Known Developments
