Since the whole world is to be linked together, what does it matter to add a secondary root server in the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union can put servers on it, and Xiangjiang Yulin Institute of Technology will not have any problems. Moreover, the Internet needs to use Heiyun's technology and patents, and it is indeed unreasonable not to play with others.
Seeing President Reagan nodding, Joe Douglas said: "Mr. Watson Jr. makes a lot of sense. We were small before."
"Place two auxiliary root servers in Asia, one in Hong Kong Yulin Institute of Technology, and one in Japan. As for who the Japanese want to run the servers, that's their own business."
Hearing that a secondary root server of the Internet would be placed in Yulin Institute of Technology, Bao Zixuan jumped up with excitement. That is to say, Americans still don't know much about what the Internet means. If they knew it, they would definitely not agree to put the auxiliary root server in Hong Kong. This is an artifact that can control the transmission and signal reception of a local area network.
It has a strong voice in the construction of the Internet, and it is not as simple as a secondary root server quota. In the future, in Southeast Asian countries, if you want to connect to the Internet, you will have to look at Bao Zixuan's face. Any price paid now is worth it, and Americans will regret it in the future.
Reagan said with a smile: "Where the main root server will be placed will be determined today. This is related to the strategic issue of the entire country, and the overall situation must be put first."
Bao Zixuan really can't talk about this matter, and his support will make people feel disgusted. MIT may have had a chance before, but if the richest man Bao clearly supports it; with Americans' suspicion and cautiousness, he will definitely not get his wish. It's better to watch here, after getting the secondary root server, it doesn't matter who gets the primary root server.
The main root server is related to the future computer professional pattern, and both MIT and Stanford University claim to be the first computer universities in the world. Putting it in one of the schools means that the ranking has been determined; no one can give up.
MIT has an advantage in terms of historical popularity, and science and engineering are the world's largest. Stanford wins on a huge campus, after all, the Stanford couple left a lot of land. Stanford University has developed rapidly in recent decades, and its comprehensive strength is also among the best in the United States.
It can be said that both schools have their own advantages, and it is really hard to say who is more suitable.
Professor Lanco, chair of Stanford University's Department of Computer Science, stood up and said, "As early as 1969; four major computers, UCLA, Stanford Research, UC Berkeley, and the University of Utah, were connected. This was the first Internet. It can be said that Stanford University has come to the forefront of the world in this regard.”
"In terms of network operation, it has a natural advantage over other universities. Putting the main root server in Stanford University is the best choice, which can save a lot of preparation work and can run it right away."
Back then, the host of the ARPANET was also placed at Stanford University, and what Professor Netac said was very reasonable. Moreover, Stanford University has the largest land area in the United States, and it will be more convenient to expand in the future.
Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Professor Harry Rowland knew that if he didn't make a statement, it would be really boring. He knew Bao Zixuan's difficulties and situation, and he understood that his disciple did not speak.
And Professor Roland understood that when he just stood up for Bao Zixuan. MIT has lost its taproot server, but he has no regrets. Helping Bao Zixuan is out of the teacher-student friendship, and the chance of success is very high. The main root server is up to five or five open, and there is no certainty of victory at all.
Knowing that speaking twice in a row is detrimental to his reputation, but not fighting for it is not in line with the status of the head of the MIT Department of Computer Science.
Harry Rowland: "Stanford University's achievements in computer science are indeed obvious to all, but we can't ignore MIT's contribution to the computer field."
"MIT has the most powerful industrial computers in the United States, and the campus network has already been established. If the main root server is placed at MIT, it will save a lot of unnecessary expenses."
Harry Roland knew that it was a bit far-fetched, especially after he just tried his best to fight for a secondary root server for Xiangjiang.
At this time, the scene fell into silence, and speaking at this time will definitely offend people. Both schools are not easy to mess with, you can't lose the big because of the small.
Although President Reagan did not understand technology, he knew balance. So looking at the crowd, he said, "MIT and Stanford have their own advantages, but there is only one main root server. It is not an exaggeration to put it in any university. The losing party can place a secondary root server."
"You are all top experts in the computer field, and you will be handing out notes. M is for MIT, and S is for Stanford. There are 43 people on the scene, and everyone has one vote. The one with the most votes wins."
Reagan spoke, and no one could say anything more. This proposal is still very fair, even if it is not fair, no one will stand up against it. That's hitting the president in the face. Unless you don't want to mix in the United States, you still have to give enough respect to the current president.
Secretarial staff rushed to produce ballots as required by the president, which required a process. Take this time to drink some water and eat some food to relax.
The efficiency of the White House staff is still very high, and the ballots were produced in a short time. There are all kinds of equipment here, and it is very easy to do small things.
After the ballots were distributed, everyone began to vote. As for whether to choose MIT or recognize Stanford, it is up to you.
Bao Zixuan knew that this was very fair to MIT, but the probability of winning was still small. Many computer experts who have entered the White House today are Stanford alumni.
As expected, Stanford won 29:14. This makes Harry Roland feel very embarrassed, is it that the computer science major of MIT is so different from that of Stanford.
Joe Douglas said, "Since the primary root server has been determined, then MIT will automatically get a secondary root server spot."
He couldn't help but be unhappy, after all, he had a background in computer science from Stanford University. The strength of the alma mater is also bright on the faces of the graduates. And it was under his leadership that Stanford University got the main root server of the Internet. In the future, the school will definitely leave an indelible mark in the history of the school.
Seeing that everyone did not speak, it was obvious that they had agreed to this resolution. Joe Douglas continued: "There are still 5 secondary root servers in the United States that need to be determined; all things are settled today, and everyone's opinions are needed."
Previously planned 1 in Asia, 2 in Europe, and 6 auxiliary root servers in the United States. Because of the emergence of the black cloud, Asia also got 2 places. Fortunately, Watson Jr. suggested adding a secondary root server, so that the United States still has a quota of 6 secondary root servers.
MIT gets 1 secondary root server, which means there are 5 more for everyone to fight for. It can be said that the real competition has just begun, the computer network has just started, and everyone's strength is similar. Don't want to give up, just see who can have the last laugh.
Robert Calvin stood up and said, "The University of Chicago has made remarkable achievements in the field of computing, and it is a matter of course to get a secondary root server. At the same time, Motorola will unconditionally donate a modern computer room and related equipment, and will never rely on the Internet."
No one expected that Robert Calvin, who has never been very generous, would make such a statement, and everyone must give him face. Besides, other schools have no such confidence, after all, they have not received any promise from the company.
Reagan also said with a smile: "Since Mr. Calvin is willing to contribute to scientific research, we will give him this opportunity. We can't let entrepreneurs feel cold. How do you guys feel?"
The president said it was feasible Who would dare to object. Before Professor Leonard could react, the University of Chicago was awarded a secondary root server spot. This also made him admire Robert Calvin, and his ability to grasp the timing is really incomparable.
There are only four places left, and well-known universities do not want to give up. Harvard University, Caltech, University of Pennsylvania, Yale University, Columbia University, Princeton University, Johns Hopkins University, and several UC campuses. They are all fighting for each other.
In the end, even Reagan had no choice but to continue to choose the voting method. However, this vote is a bit more complicated. Everyone chooses four universities, and the one with the most votes still wins.
This decision made Professor Leonard feel a little apprehensive, and Robert Calvin admired Bao Zixuan from the bottom of his heart. I just listened to his idea, otherwise the University of Chicago might not be able to get the auxiliary root server quota. The colleges and universities that participated in the voting did not have a fuel-efficient lamp.
