Chapter 361 Two Courses
Other courses are either relatively simple or not suitable for Beijing University of Technology. There are also unsystematic courses that can be taken by other teachers.
However, although this "Principles of Automatic Control" is only half completed, it is enough to teach students. It is just right to complete it while doing it.
And this book is of great significance. At this time, automation is even more important than computer science because it has a wide range of applications, is closer to the existing technical environment, has a lower threshold for application transformation, and can go deep into industry and agriculture. Go to all aspects of industries such as military and military.
In fact, in Gao Zhendong’s previous life, the employment directions of electrical automation and information technology majors in ordinary enterprises were basically the same. Except for some industries and positions with special requirements, in general, the scope of employment in automation, Also slightly wider.
Speaking of which, we have to talk about the gold content of "DoubleE" (Electrical Engineering). It is a tiger balm that can do everything.
In a word, in Gao Zhendong's view, "Principles of Automatic Control" is more important at this stage.
"Dean Dai, in this case, I have a course that should be very suitable for you to take."
Dean Dai did not expect Gao Zhendong to be really willing to take the class. His original idea was to occupy a pit first. He didn't know what the National Defense Work Committee was thinking about. Maybe it was for safety or other reasons, so he asked him to arrange a lecturer first. He felt that this professor Gao Zhendong was going to attend class. Excuse me.
In fact, the idea of the leader of the National Defense Working Committee is not complicated. After Gao Zhendong has been taking classes for a period of time, he can then pull it up in the name of teaching. This way, it will not look so eye-catching, especially in the eyes of the enemy. inside.
Gao Zhendong could guess this. He had no objection at all. He was willing to disappear from the world for more than ten decades. It was not a big deal for him to be a lecturer, as long as he could teach.
Since Chief Engineer Gao has offered to take the class, it would be obviously a fool's behavior to extrapolate it. No matter what class it is, I think it will be extremely useful.
"General Engineer Gao, what kind of course is this? Let me see if our school has made some preparations first." Naturally, he would not be stupid enough to call "Lecturer Gao" when he opened his mouth. That would be a shame for you. , but you are pushing your nose to the face, it is safer to call your job title.
""Principles of Automatic Control" is a course that focuses on the basic principles and applications of automatic control. It is closer to my original major, and I think it is more consistent with the teaching needs of the University of Technology. This course must be Originally, the school had similar courses, but in this course I combined my own learning and practical thinking, and carried out some systematic integration, from classical control theory, time domain and frequency domain analysis of linear systems, root locus, and correction. , linear discrete systems, nonlinear control systems, state space analysis of linear systems, optimal control theory, etc.”
As the head of a college, Dean Dai still knows a lot about automatic control. When I heard Gao Zhendong’s choice, I felt a little unconvinced. It would be fine if it was a new subject created by Gao Zhendong himself. He has the final say on these things, such as C language.
However, as a course that has been developed for a long time, the principle of automatic control is not too old, but it is not too new either. Gao Zhendong himself has just graduated less than a year ago. Can he grasp this?
Having such doubts is considered a normal thought, and it is not advisable to follow blindly and blindly.
However, Dean Dai did not directly raise his doubts, but turned a corner.
"General Engineer Gao, ok, ok, would you like to see if the teaching materials you have here have been drafted? If so, I can take them back first and ask the school to organize a batch of them. You can't attend classes and still have them." If you are asked to make teaching materials, our school will become a big joke.”
These days, it is not uncommon for teachers to compile their own teaching materials. Many pioneers come back from abroad. To be able to come back from abroad is to break through many obstacles. You have to go through a lot of hardships and give up a lot of things to get back. It is not ordinary to bring back the teaching materials from outside.
So, eh, after I come back, I will make it up myself. The stuff is in my head. You foreigners can’t do anything with me.
For Beijing University of Technology, isn’t it just teaching materials? What is the job of the school-run printing factory?
Besides, with the enrollment scale at this time, if the print run is too small, it is not impossible to turn on the printer and print dozens of copies.
In this way, the teaching materials will be available first, and if there are any problems, you can make plans as soon as possible.
Since Gao Zhendong said that he wrote the textbook himself, his level can be directly seen from the quality of the textbook.
Gao Zhendong nodded and said with a smile: "The book is half finished now. Fortunately, I originally planned to divide this course into two semesters. It would be good to prepare this half of the teaching materials first."
He He turned around and opened the safe, pretending to take out a tape and a stack of copied paper.
“This is the first half. I divided it into 5 chapters. In this tape, there is the text part. On these papers, there are all the illustrations and tables that have marked the positions of the text part. The two parts are combined together. , which is the first half of this textbook. ”
The editing program at this time could not support the insertion of graphics and tables, mainly because the computer itself could not support pictures.
If tables can still be barely supported by tab symbols, pictures are in trouble for the time being. Bmp and jpg are still not available. The main reason is that the machine cannot withstand it and does not compress it. Storage is a problem. Compress it, the computing power is not enough. As for tabulation symbols, they were rarely used in Gao Zhendong’s previous life. In the early days, WPS and other software under DOS had this thing. In fact, ASCII can barely achieve this effect. For example, if you have used RFC (RequestForComments) if you are a computer student. Document, you will see a large number of similar tables in it.
But this effect is a bit of a joke if it is used for publications.
So Gao Zhendong drew all the pictures and tables in the textbook by himself.
Dean Dai took it over with a face of surprise. Although the tape could not tell how many pages there were, it could still be seen from the number of illustrations and tables. The content should be very rich, and there were even a lot of complex formulas because the editor The device does not support it, and it is also purely handwritten.
Based on Dean Dai’s experience, we can tell from these formulas that this book is not simple!
He didn't know that this half book contained almost 500,000 words. Chinese characters were two bytes per word, which almost filled up this high-density tape.
The "favorite" of automation major students in the future, "Principles of Automatic Control" (Part 1), was born!
The two discussed some more details, and Dean Dai returned to school with the manuscript of the book given by Gao Zhendong.
In addition to "Principles of Automatic Control" (Part 1), Gao Zhendong also commissioned the Beijing University of Technology to publish another book he had picked up before, "Data Structure" (C language version). Now with the With the gradual popularization of C language, this thing can be put on the agenda. This is considered one of the basic knowledge of programmers.
Starting from the next semester, Gao Zhendong will take classes at Beijing University of Technology in the name of a lecturer. He will take 3 classes a week, concentrated in one and a half days, 2 "Principles of Automatic Control" and 1 "Principles of Automatic Control" Data Structures".
There is only one class. Beijing University of Technology will organize the class on its own, whether it has 30 people or 300 people, as long as their classroom hardware conditions can keep up. Anyway, for Gao Zhendong, there is no difference between letting a duck go and chasing a group of ducks.
Dean Dai is holding two heavy copies of materials. What kind of internal printing is this? He should quickly organize manpower to proofread and proofread before the start of the school year in two or three months, and publish them directly. The Anti-Working Press is no better. Mechanical Press is poor.
Unintentionally, "Principles of Automatic Control" returned to its original birthplace. This can be regarded as God's will.
Judging from the paper charts, he is now very confident in the quality of these two textbooks.
After sending away Dean Dai, Gao Zhendong finally let go of another thing. The utilization rate of these treasures he drew is getting higher and higher.
At the same time, somewhere in the capital, people from the Foreign Affairs, Foreign Business, and National Defense Work Committee were meeting.
Ministry of Foreign Commerce: "Hong Kong Island and Southeast Asia have a strong interest in our DJS-59, Chinese character environment, and printers. What do you think?"
Hong Kong Island and Southeast Asia need not be mentioned. We also have a large number of expats, so it seems normal to have some interests.
After finishing speaking, he added: "Especially on Hong Kong Island, they are very proactive."
The people from the Defense Working Committee smiled and said: "Haha, the enemy is not a fool, it seems. John Bull saw or used it from the Gallic Chicken.”
The people from the foreign affairs department laughed: "Then what do your National Defense Working Committee think about this matter? Will it have any impact?"
The National Defense Working Committee shook his head: "There is no problem. If there is a problem, we will have it early." I stopped it. The performance of DJS-59 is not outstanding. What is outstanding is its ease of use. This has no impact on the fundamental change of power. The key is that we have better ones!”
Foreign Affairs. The department nodded: "That's good. This also introduces our character encoding. It's not just Chinese characters. Haha, it's difficult to change something once it's easy to use. This is still a problem for us. Some extra meanings. "
The National Defense Work Committee smiled and said: "In fact, in the past few days, our scientific researchers have developed two more computer-related things, which are very practical in communications. Value, you can consider adding it to your sales list."
The people in the foreign business department were very excited: "Is it related to computers? Is that person doing it again?"
The Defense Working Committee nodded: "Well, these two things are very interesting. You can sell them together with the DJS-59, or you can sell them separately as software!"
The two things he mentioned, These are the "Telegraph Data Communication Machine" software developed by Gao Zhendong and the Institute of Communications, and the complete set of email programs developed by the Institute of Communications. Although the latter has not been completed yet, there is no problem in putting it on the list.
