Media: Japan no longer is the technology leader in Asia, China is next door-IT information

Japan the Nikkei Asia review, December 7, the original question: China put on Asian technology leading titles

In recent years, Japan scientists won the Nobel Prize several times. However, Japan's international status in the field of science and technology is falling at an alarming rate, China is rapidly gaining more than. More and more data showed Japan's scientific research level continues to drop. Meanwhile, China continues to strengthen research efforts, in a wide range of difficulties and breakthroughs in the field.

China is now the world's most prominent emerging powers, this from the latest supercomputers in the world rankings are clearly visible. November United States announced an International Conference in Utah Supercomputing top 500 ranking. China has been at the top since 2013. The rankings updated twice a year. In 2016, the Chinese system to win the top two. Super computer is indispensable for the highly complex operation of advanced research. Therefore, a national supercomputer strength was as a reflection of its scientific and technological level.

In addition, the Japan Ministry of education, science and technology policy under the Institute's data show that 1% of the most frequently cited in the world in scientific research papers, China 15.7%, after the United States. But 10 years ago, China ranked 10th, and at that time accounted for 3.4%. Meanwhile, 10 years ago, Japan ranked 5th, to 6.4%, and now down to 12th place, 5.5%. Some experts say, Japan still in terms of paper quality is better than China. But important academic journal papers about the latest data shows that rapid progress in China, and Japan balked.

Gains in China's most advanced research. In August this year, China launched the world's first quantum communication satellites.

Japan zuozuomuyaying quantum cryptography experts said that China's rapid rise to the top in this field.

He warned that China may in quantum communication play a leading role in the development of technical standards.

Japan is no longer a technology leader in Asia. China is.

日媒：日本不再是亚洲科技老大，隔壁中国才是 - IT资讯

日本《日经亚洲评论》12月7日文章，原题：中国戴上亚洲科技龙头的头衔

近年来，日本科学家数次获得诺贝尔奖。然而，日本在科技领域的国际地位却以惊人速度下降，正迅速被中国超过。越来越多的数据显示日本的科研水平不断下降。与此同时，中国不断加强科研力度，在广泛领域知难而进并取得突破。

中国现在是科技世界最突出的新兴强国，这从该国在世界超级计算机最新排名上升就清晰可见。11月美国犹他州的一个国际会议公布了超级计算机500强排名。中国自从2013年以来就一直高居榜首。该排名一年更新两次。2016年，中国的系统拿下前两名。超级计算机对尖端科研的高度复杂运算不可或缺。因此，一个国家的超级计算机实力被视为其科技水平的反映。

此外，日本文部科学省下属的科技政策研究所的数据显示，在世界上被引用次数最多的1%科研论文中，中国占到了15.7%，比例仅次于美国。而10年前，中国排在第10位，当时所占比例为3.4%。与此同时，10年前日本排名第5位，占到6.4%，而现在降到第12位，占5.5%。当时的一些专家说，日本仍在论文质量方面优于中国。但有关重要学术期刊论文数量的最新数据显示，中国进步迅速，而日本止步不前。

中国在最先进的科研领域也有所斩获。今年8月，中国发射了世界首颗量子通信卫星。

日本量子密码学专家佐佐木雅英表示，中国在该领域急速上升到顶端。

他警告称，中国可能在量子通信技术标准发展方面发挥带头作用。

日本不再是亚洲科技龙头了。中国才是。
