The Foundation will never be complete.

The slogan of previous research has always been the foundation, and the basic knowledge has been viewed since the start of the school in February. Yesterday, the core course distributed system of this semester finally started class, And suddenly found that there are too many things to be done in the professional direction. Reference books need to be viewed, a lot of information needs to be checked, and a summary should be written at the end. If you do these things seriously and add two math classes, you probably won't have much time for me to complete the basics. There is also a mobile computing. To be honest, I didn't want to choose this course because I couldn't see the importance of this course. After several lectures, we found that mobile computing is not only highly related to distributed computing, but also a promising technology in the future. It seems that this course also takes a lot of effort.

The two courses mentioned above, coupled with Measurement and Control and Simulation Technology, are all professional courses this semester. Now, it is quite reasonable for the teacher to help us select courses. The first two courses are selected by the teacher and recommended by the teacher. At the beginning, I felt that I had no choice, but I was quite uncomfortable. Only now can I find that the first two courses are really important, especially mobile computing. At that time, I still couldn't see the importance of this course. The next course has a relatively small burden and is easy to pass, so that you can concentrate on learning core courses.

My thoughts have changed a lot in basic training and course selection. The initial idea was based on your previous knowledge background and experience, and it is inevitable that it is somewhat conservative and lagging behind. The foundation can never be completed. It is unrealistic to expect that the Foundation should be firmly studied. When you lay a solid foundation, others have made the results. If you don't look forward to it, how can you surpass others? A few days ago, when I was reading computer networks, there was an interview with Leonard kleinrock, the inventor of packet-switch. The reporter asked him why he focused on the research of network technology. He replied that when he was studying for a doctor at MIT, people around him focused on information and coding theory, it was because of the well-known Claude. shannon is at MIT. However, he found that important issues in this field have been almost studied by Shannon, and the remaining issues are very difficult and difficult to achieve. So he decided to open up a new field. At that time, MIT already had many computers. He thought that it would be an important requirement for these computers to communicate with each other. Finally, he chose this direction. Imagine if kleinrock doesn't take a long view, he may be just a mediocre scholar in the end.

From next month, I will definitely spend a lot of time on new classes. However, this does not mean that the Foundation is unimportant. I have read half of these books and will continue reading them later. I believe that it is not too late to complete a lot of knowledge, and at that time there is a need to make up better results.
