Global puzzle solving! , Huawei offered a bonus of 2 million yuan
Recently, Huawei announced the 2024 Olympus Problem Bonus at the 2024 Global Data Storage Professor Forum.
This year's Olympus problem includes two directions: one is storage technology with extremely cost-effective per bit, and the other is a new data base for the AI era.
The Olympus Puzzle Million Dollar Bonus has two Olympus Awards, one for each puzzle direction. If the grand prize for a certain puzzle direction is vacant, 1-2 Olympus Pioneer Awards will be added. The Olympus Award is worth RMB 1 million per person, and the Olympus Pioneer Award is worth RMB 500,000 per person. It aims to attract the world's top scientific research talents to jointly explore cutting-edge technologies in the field of data storage.
It is understood that since 2019, Huawei has released a million-dollar bonus for Olympus problems every year, aiming to guide the basic theoretical research direction in the global data storage field, break through key technical problems, accelerate the industrialization of scientific research results, and achieve win-win cooperation between industry, academia and research. . Currently, "Olympus Red" has been released for four phases, attracting more than 240 scholars from 49 universities around the world to actively participate.
Last year, the team of Professor Torsten Hoefler from ETH Zurich and the team of professors from Shanghai Jiao Tong University won the 2023 Olympus Award. Professor You Yang’s team from the National University of Singapore, Professor John Kim’s team from the Korea Academy of Science and Technology, Teacher Yang Tong’s team from Peking University, and Teacher Wang Ying’s team from the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences won the 2023 Olympus Pioneer Award.
Zhou Yuefeng, President of Huawei's data storage product line, said that data storage with ultimate performance, data resilience, new data paradigm, high scalability, green energy saving, and data weaving capabilities is the only way for storage evolution in the AI era and requires the participation of all walks of life.
my country's total data production will reach 32.85ZB in 2023
The recently released "National Data Resources Survey Report" shows that in 2023, the country's total data production will reach 32.85ZB, a year-on-year increase of 22.44%.
In terms of data storage, my country's cumulative data storage volume in 2023 will be 1.73ZB, and the storage space utilization rate is 59%. Among them, the storage space utilization rate of the government and key industry enterprises is about 70%. Among the above-mentioned stored data, data cloud storage accounts for more than 40%.
In terms of computing power, by the end of 2023, the computing power scale of more than 2,200 computing power centers across the country will have increased by approximately 30% year-on-year. The demand for computing power for large model training is rising, and the demand for computing power in science, government affairs, finance, industry and other industries is increasing.
The report also pointed out that the overall management and utilization of data resources in my country is in its infancy, and there are still challenges such as insufficient effective supply of data, the need for appropriately advanced deployment of computing power, the need for multiple data circulation models to be improved, and the value of data to be further released.
