Biography

Zhou Xingming, male, Han nationality, is a native of Yuyao, Zhejiang Province, and was born in Shanghai. He graduated from the Military Engineering Institute in 1961.

Zhou Xingming participated in the research and manufacture of transistor computers, integrated circuit computers, and million-time large-scale computers. From the early part of the 1960s to the late 1970s he engaged in the study and overall planning, design, and manufacture of circuit and system debugging and had achievements in the anti-high-temperature stability of germanium transistor circuits, TTL signal transmission anti-jamming and rapid division calculation method.

Zhou manufactured the first giant computer Galaxy I (system principle of host computer) in China, the first whole digit real time simulation computer Galaxy simulation I (chief principal) in China, and the first science/engineering calculation oriented concurrent computer Galaxy II (chief designer). He presided over the research, and did the initial work in the overall plan, CPU structure, RAS technical plan and system interface protocol. His recent research includes high performance calculations, transit calculations and microprocessor system structures.

Zhou is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
