More About This School

History & Fun Facts

  • History In 1956, China formally began its computing program when it launched the Twelve-Year Science Plan and formed the Beijing Institute of Computing Technology under the CAS.
  • In 1964, CAS debuted China's first self-developed large digital computer, the 119.
  • The 119 was a core technology in facilitating China's first successful nuclear weapon test (Project 596), also in 1964.
  • Beginning in 1972, CAS began promoting the idea of balancing applied research with more theoretical research and in having scientific exchanges with other developing countries.
  • As vice premier, Deng Xiaoping in 1975 also sought to re-orient CAS towards more theoretical research, which had not been a focus during the Cultural Revolution.
