计算机专业英语教程第5版翻译
1We have learned that all computers have similar capabilities and perform essentially the same functions, although some might be faster than others. We have also learned that a computer system has input, output, storage, and p that the processor is the “intelligence”
and that a single computer system may have several processors. We have discussed how data are represented inside a computer system in electronic states called bits. We are now ready to expose the inner workings of the nucleus of the computer system ― the processor. 我们已经知道,所有的计算机都具有相似的能力,并且在本质上执行相同的功能,尽管一些可能会比另 一些快一点。我们也知道,一个计算机系统具有输入,输出,存储和处理部件;处理器是一个计算机系 统智能核心,并且一个计算机系统可以有许多个处理器。我们已经讨论过如何在计算机系统内部,用被 称作“位”的电子状态来表现数据,现在我们要弄明白计算机系统的核心,即处理器,的内在的工作方 式。 The internal operation of a computer is interesting, but there really is no mystery to it. The mystery is in the minds of those who listen to hearsay and believe science-fiction writer. The computer is a nonthinking electronic device that has to be plugged into an electrical power source, just like a toaster or a lamp. 计算机的内部操作很有意思,但确实没有什么神秘可言。所谓的神秘只是存在于那些听信传闻和相信科 幻小说作家的人的意识中。计算机就是一种没有思想的需要接通电源的电子设备而已,与烤面包机和台 灯差不多。 Literally hundreds of different types of computers are marketed by scores of manufacturers [1]. The complexity of each type may vary considerably, but in the end each processor, sometimes called the central processing unit or CPU, has only two fundamental sections: the control unit and the arithmetic and logic unit. Primary storage also plays an integral part in the internal operation of a processor. These three ― primary storage, the control unit, and the arithmetic and logic unit ― work together. Let’s look at their functions and the relationships between them. 不加夸张地讲,市场上有几百种不同类型的计算机在销售.每种电脑在复杂性上可能有很大区别,但归 根结底,每种处理器,有时称为中央处理器即 cpu,只有两个基本部分:控制单元和计算逻辑单元.主内存 在处理器内部操作中也是一个不可缺少的部分.这三个部件--主内存,控制单元和计算逻辑单元--一起 工作.然我们看看它们(各自的)功能和它们之间的联系。 Unlike magnetic secondary storage devices, such as tape and disk, primary storage has no moving parts. With no mechanical movement, data can be accessed from primary storage at electronic speeds, or close to the speed of light. Most of today’s computers use DRAM (Dynamic Random-Access Memory) technology for primary storage. A state-of-the-art DRAM chip about one eighth the size of a postage stamp can store about 256,000,000 bits, or over 25,600,000 characters of data! 主存与其他的辅助存储器(如:磁带、硬盘)不一样的是,主存不含有运转部件。由于没有机械运转的 需要,主存种数据访问可以达到电子的速度,或接近于光速。当今计算机的主存大多数使用 DRAM(动态 随机存取存储器)技术。目前最新的工艺水平是:一块只有大约 1/8 张邮票大小的 DRAM 芯片却可以存1 储大约 256,000,000 位,约 25, 个字符的数据。Primary storage, or main memory, provides the processor with temporary storage for programs and data. All programs and data must be transferred to primary storage from an input device (such as a VDT) or from secondary storage (such as a disk) before programs can be executed or data can be processed. Primary storage space is therefore, after a program has been executed, the storage space it occupied is reallocated to another program awaiting execution. 主存储器,也就是说内存,用于为处理器暂时存放程序和数据。所有的程序和数据在被操作之前必须从 输入设备(如 VDT)或者辅助存储器转存到主存储器中。主存储器存储容量通常是相当有限的,因此, 在一个程序执行结束,它所占用的存储空间必须被重新分配给其它正在等待执行操作的程序。 Figure 1-1 illustrates how all input/output (I/O) is “read to” or “written from” primary storage. In the figure, an inquiry (input) is made on a VDT. The inquiry, in the form of a message, is routed to primary storage over a channel (such as a coaxial cable). The message is interpreted, and the processor initiates action to retrieve the appropriate program and data from secondary storage [3].The program and data are “loaded”, or moves, to primary storage from secondary storage. This is a nondestructive read process. That is, the program and data that are read reside in both primary storage (temporarily) and secondary storage (permanently). The data are manipulated according to program instructions, and a report is written from primary storage to a printer. 图 1-1 描述了输入/输出设备与主存储器间的读和写过程。在图中,VDT 发出一个输入请求,请求是以 消息模式通过通道(如同轴电缆)发送到主存储器。这个查询被解释,处理器发起操作从辅助存储器中 调用合适的程序和数据。程序和数据从辅助存储器传送到主存储器中,这是一个非破坏性的读取过程, 也就是说,程序和数据同时存在于主存(临时保存)和辅助存储器(永久保存)中。根据程序指令的指 示,处理器对数据进行操作,并从主存传送一份报告到打印机。 A program instruction or a piece of data is stored in a specific primary storage location called an address. Addresses permit program instructions and data to be located, accessed, and processed. The content of each address is constantly changing as different programs are executed and new data are processed. 程序指令和数据是存储在主存中一个特殊的位置,称为地址空间。通过地址空间可以实现计算机对程序 指令和数据的定位、访问和处理。地址空间的内容是经常变化的,这是由于计算机一直在执行不同的程 序和数据。Another name for primary storage is random-access memory, or RAM. A special type of primary storage, called read-only memory (ROM), cannot be altered by the programmer. The contents of ROM are “hard-wired” (designed into the logic of the memory chip) by the manufacturer and can be “read only”. When you turn on a microcomputer system, a program in ROM automatically readies the computer system for use. Then the ROM program produces the initial display screen prompt.2 主存储器也称为随机存取存储器,或 RAM。还有一种特殊的主存储器,称为只读存储器(ROM) ,这种存 储器不能被程序更改存放的内容。ROM 的内容是被生产商通过硬件电路写入的,并且不能被重写。当你 启动计算机,ROM 中的一个程序会自动就绪等待计算机系统的调用,然后在显示器中显示开机提示。 A variation of ROM is programmable read-only memory (PROM). PROM is ROM into which you, the user, can load “read-only” programs and data. Once a program is loaded to PROM, it is seldom, if ever, changed [4]. However, if you need to be able to revise the contents of PROM, there is EPROM, erasable PROM. Before a write operation, all the storage cells must be erased to the same initial state. 可编程只读存储器(PROM)是另一种 ROM,它可以载入只读的程序和数据,一旦载入,将不再改变。然 而,若果你需要去修正 PROM 的内容,可以使用可擦可编程只读存储器。 EPROM 在进行一次写操作之 前,所有的存储单元必须被还原为同一初始状态。A more attractive form of read-mostly memory is electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM). It can be written into at any time without er only the byte or bytes addressed are updated. 一种更吸引人的可改写只读存储器是电可擦除可编程只读存储器 而且不会擦除以前的内容;只会更新被寻址的字节。 (EEPROM)。它可以在任何时候写入,The EEPROM combines the advantage of nonvolatility with the flexibility of being updatable in place [6], using ordinary bus control, address, and data lines. 电可擦可编程存储器把非易失性优点和可更新、需要更新的地方的灵活性结合起来,修改时使用普通的 总线控制线、地址线和数据线。Another form of semiconductor memory is flash memory (so named because of the speed). Flash memory is intermediate between EPROM and EEPROM in both cost and functionality. Like EEPROM, flash memory uses an electrical erasing technology. An entire flash memory can be erased in one or a few seconds, which is much faster than EPROM. In addition, it is possible to erase just blocks of memory rather than an entire chip. However, flash memory does not provide byte-level erasure [7]. Like EPROM, flash memory uses only one transistor per bit, and so achieves the high density of EPROM. 另一种半导体记忆体是闪存(意味着速度快) 。闪存在性价比上处于 EPROM 和 EEPROM 之间,它使用电擦 写技术。整个闪存的内容可以在一到几秒内被清除,这是远快于 EPROM 的。另外,它还可以对部分记忆 块而不是整个存储器进行清除。然而,闪存并不提供字节级的擦除。像 EPROM,闪存只使用一个晶体管 每比特,因此可以实现高密度的 EPROM。Cache Memory Program and data are loaded to RAM from secondary storage because the time required to access a program instruction or piece of data from RAM is significantly less than from secondary storage.3 Thousands of instructions or pieces of data can be accessed from RAM in the time it would take to access a single piece of data from disk storage [8]. RAM is essentially a high-speed holding area for data and programs. In fact, nothing really happens in a computer system until the program instructions and data are moved to the processor. This transfer of instructions and data to the processor can be time-consuming, even at microsecond speeds. To facilitate an even faster transfer of instructions and data to the processor, most computers are designed with cache memory. Cache memory is employed by computer designers to increase the computer system throughput (the rate at which work is performed). 程序和数据从辅助存储器装载到 RAM 中是因为对 RAM 中的程序指令和数据的访问时间要明显的少于从辅 助存储器访问。数以千条的指令和数据能被访问而只需花费从硬盘访问一次数据的时间。RAM 是数据和 程序的重要的高速存放区, 事实上, 计算机系统不会进行任何操作直到程序指令被传入处理器进行执行, 这种指令和数据的传输是需要花费时间的,即使传输速度已经是以纳秒来计算了。为了能更快速的传输 指令和数据,大多数计算机设计使用高速缓存。计算机设计者使用高速缓存来提高计算机系统的总处理 能力(工作效率) 。Like RAM, cache is a high-speed holding area for program instructions and data. However, cache memory uses SRAM (Static RAM) technology that is about 10 times faster than RAM and about 100 times more expensive. With only a fraction of the capacity of RAM, cache memory holds only those instructions and data that are likely to be needed next by the processor. Two types of cache memory appear widely in computers. The first is referred to as internal cache and is built into the CPU chip. The second, external cache, is located on chips placed close to the CPU chip. A computer can have several different levels of cache memory. Level 1 cache is virtually always built into the chip. Level 2 cache used to be external cache but is now typically also built into the CPU like level 1 cache. 和 RAM 一样,高速缓存也是程序指令和数据的高速存储区。然而,高速缓存使用静态 RAM 技术,这种技 术比 RAM 在速度上要高出 10 倍,价格上高出 100 倍。cache 只保存内存中那一小部分最有可能被处理器 执行的指令和数据。两种类型的 cache 广泛应用于计算机,第一种被植入 cpu 中的叫做内部高速存储, 第二种是外部高速存储, 它位于那些靠近 cpu 的芯片中。 一台计算机可以拥有几个不同级别的高速缓存。 一级缓存实际上总是植入芯片中, 二级缓存过去常常作为外部高速缓存, 但是现在也像一级缓存植入 cpu 内部。 2.1 Optical laser disk technology eventually may make magnetic-disk and magnetic tape storage obsolete. With this technology, the read/write head used in magnetic storage is replaced by two lasers. One laser beam writes to the recording surface by scoring microscopic pits in the disk, and another laser reads the data from the light-sensitive recording surface. A light beam is easily deflected to the desired place on the optical disk, so an access arm is not needed. 光盘技术最终可能使磁盘和磁带存储淘汰。用这种技术,磁存储器所用的读/写头被两束激光代替。一 束激光通过在光盘上刻制微小的凹点,对记录表面进行写;而另一束激光用来从光敏感的记录表面读取 数据。由于光束容易被偏转到光盘上所需要的位置,所以不需要存取臂。4 Optical laser disks are becoming a very inviting option for users. They are less sensitive to environmental fluctuations, and they provide more direct-access storage at a cost that is much less per megabyte of storage than the magnetic-disk alternative. Optical laser disk technology is still emerging and
however, at present there are three main categories of optical laser disks. They are CD-ROM, recordable CD-R and rewritable CD-RW, and magneto-optical disk. 对用户而言,光盘正成为最有吸引力的选择。它们(光盘)对环境变化不太敏感,并且它们以每兆字节比 磁盘低得多的存储器价格提供更多的直接存取存储器。光盘技术仍在出现,并且还需要稳定;然而,目 前有三种主要类型的光盘。它们是 CD-ROM、WORM 盘和磁光盘。 CD-ROM Introduced in 1980, the extraordinarily successful CD, or compact disk, is an optical laser disk designed to enhance the recorded reproduction of music. To make a CD recording, the analog sounds of music are translated into their digital equivalents and stored on a 4.72-inch optical laser disk. Seventy-four minutes of music can be recorded on each disk in digital format by 2 billion digital bits. With its tremendous storage capacity, computer-industry entrepreneurs immediately recognized the potential of optical laser disk technology. In effect, anything that can be digitized can be stored on optical laser disk: data, text, voice, still pictures, music, graphics, and video. 1980 年引入的,非常成功的 CD,或紧密盘是设计来提高音乐的录音重放质量的光盘。为了制作一张 CD, 把音乐的模拟声音转换成等价的数字声音,并且存储在一张 4.72 英寸的光盘上。在每张光盘上可以用 数字格式(用 20 亿数字位)记录 74 分钟的音乐。因为它的巨大存储容量,计算机工业的企业家们立刻 认识到光盘技术的潜力。事实上,任何可以被数字化的东西都能存储在光盘上:数据、正文、声音、静 止图象、音乐、图形和视频。 CD-ROM(pronounced cee-dee-ROM) is a spinoff of audio CD technology. CD-ROM stand for compact disk-read only memory. The name implies its application. CD-ROM disks, like long-playing record albums, are “pressed” at the factory and distributed with their prerecorded contents(for example, the complete works of Shakespeare or the first 30 minutes of Gone with the wind). Once inserted into the disk drive, the text, video images, and so on can be read into primary storage for p however, the data on the disk are fixed―they cannot be altered. This is in contrast, of course, to the read/write capability of magnetic disks. CD-ROM(读作 C―D―ROM)是音频 CD 技术的副产品。CD-ROM 代表紧密盘―只读存储器。该名字隐含了 它的应用。只读光盘与 (能长期播放的) 唱片一样,在工厂里“压制”并带着预先录好的内容 (如莎士 比亚全集,或电影“飘”的前 30 分钟部分),分发出去。一旦光盘插入光盘驱动器,正文、视频图像等 等就能读入主存进行处理或显示;然而,在只读光盘上的数据是固定的―它们不能被改变。当然,这是 与磁盘的读/写能力不同的。 The tremendous amount of low-cost dir-access storage made possible by optical laser disks has opened the door to many new applications. 大量的、低成本直接存取存储器(是光盘使之成为可能)已经打开了通向许多新应用的大门。 CD-R AND CD-RW CD-R and CD-RW both allow user to store data on compact discs, but only data on rewriteable5 CDs can be erased and overwritten. CD-R discs can only be written to once. Both types of discs look very similar to CD-ROM discs. Recordable CDs are commonly used to store music files, allowing home users to make high-quality personalized music CDs. CD-RW discs can be written to and erased similar to floppy disk. Consequently, they are a good alternative for large file storage, as well as for creating a “master” disc before burning a CD-R discs(most CD-RW drives can write to both CD-RW and CD- R discs, but some CD and CD-R drives cannot read CD-RW discs). CD-R and CD-RW drives also read CD-ROM discs. However, CDs will be eclipsed BY DVDs, once that technology becomes improved and standardized. CD-R 和 CD-RW 都允许用户存储数据在光盘上, 但是只有那些在可复写 cd 中的数据能被擦除和重写。 Cd-r 光盘只能被写入一次。 这俩种光盘看起来与只读 cd 光盘差不多。 可记录 cd 管片通常用于存储音乐文件, 这样可以允许家庭用户制作高质量的个人音乐唱片。Cd-rw 光盘就像软盘那样能被重写和擦除。因此, 他们是大容量文件存储的另一种不错选择,同时也作为主盘在对 cd-r 光盘进行刻入之前(大多数的可 擦写光盘驱动器可以读取 cd-rw 和 cd-r 光盘,但是也有一些 cd 驱动器和 cd-r 驱动器不能读 cd-rw 光 盘) 。Cd-r 和 cd-rw 驱动器也可以读 cd-rom 光盘,然而,cd 将会被 dvd 所替代,一旦 dvd 的技术完全 成熟和标准化。Magneto-Optical Disk Magneto-Optical disk offers promise that Optical laser disks will become commercially viable as a read-and-write storage technology. The 5and1/4inch disks can store up to 1,000Mb. At present, magneto-optical disks are too expensive and do not offer anywhere near the kind of reliability that users have come to expect of magnetic media. In addition, the access times are relatively slow, about the same as a low-end Winchester disk. 磁光盘有希望使得激光盘成为商业上可行的读/写存储技术。5*1/4 英寸的磁光盘可以存储高达 1000Mb。 目前磁光盘太贵且根本未达到用户对磁介质所期望的那种可靠性。此外,存取时间相对而言比较慢,大 约与低档温彻斯特盘相同。 As optical laser disk technology matures to reliable, cost-effective, read/write operation, it eventually may dominate secondary storage in the future as magnetic disks and type do today. 随着光盘技术成熟到可靠,性能价格合算,可读/可写,将来它最终会象现在磁盘、磁带那样统治二级 存储器。 DVDs The acronym DVD(for digital versatile disc, or digital video disc) refer to a relatively new high-capacity optical storage format that can hold from 4.7GB to 17GB, depending on the number of recording layers and discs sides being used. A standard single layered, single-sided DVD can store 4.7GB a two-layered standard enhances the single-side layer to 8.5GB. DVD can be double-sided with a maximum storage of 17GB per disc. The DVD was initially developed to store the full contents of a standard two-hour movie, but is now also used to store computer data and software. DVD-ROM technology is seen by many as the successor to music CDs, computer CD-ROMs, and prerecorded VHS videotape that people buy and rent for home viewing-in other words, read-only products. DVD-R is DVD rewritable(similar to CD-W). The user can write to the disk only once. DVD-RW is DVD recordable(similar to CD-RW). The user can erase and rewrite to the disk multiple times. Only one-sided disks can be used for both DVD-R and dvd-rw. Most DVD drives6 can play both computer and audio CDs, but you can’t play DVDs in a CD drive. 这个缩写影碟(数字化视频光盘或数字视频光盘) ,指的是相对较新的高容量光存储格式取决于光盘 记录层和边数,可以从 4.7 GB 的持有以 17 GB,被使用。一个标准的单层单面的 DVD 可以存储 4.7 GB 的数据,一两个层次的标准,增强了单面层到 8.5 GB 的。 DVD 可双面的每件 17 GB 的最大存储。该 DVD 最初是存储标准的全部内容的两个小时的电影,但现在还用于存储计算机数据和软件。DVD - ROM 技术 是被许多人视为对音乐 CD,电脑光盘和人们购买和租赁的预先录制的家庭录影带的后续,换句话说,只 读的产品。DVD-R 是可记录的 DVD(就像 CD-R 那样) 。用户可以对其进行一次写入。DVD-RW 是可擦写的 (类似的 CD - RW) ,用户可擦除和重写磁盘多次。DVD-R 和 DVD-RW 都是单面光盘。所有的 DVD 驱动器 可以同时播放电脑和音频 CD。但是,不能在 CD 播放机上应用 DVD 光盘。 DVD Forum Receives Top Information Technology Industry Award for Creation of Unified Specification for Next Multimedia Era DVD 论坛因建立下一代数字多媒体的统一规范而获得最高信息技术工业奖 The DVD Forum today announced that it has received the 1997 PC Magazine Award for Technical Excellence in the category of “Standards”, in recognition of the Forum’s successful development of the dvd-rom specification. DVD 论坛今天宣布,因该论坛成功制定了 DVD-ROM 规范而获得 1997 年 PC 杂志的 (制定标准的) 卓越技 术奖。 “New standards are particularly important, since they promise to bring higher levels of technology innovation and market compatibility to today’s technology users,” said by Michael J. Miller, editor-in-chief of PC Magazine.” DVD-ROM is a compelling technology that was chosen because it’s a familiar format that brings a wealth of new computing, educational, gaming and entertainment possibilities to the user.” “新的标准特别重要,因为它们承诺把更高级的技术革新和市场兼容性带给今天的技术用户, ”PC 杂志 主编 Michael J.

Paramount among these challenges is secure delivery of applications that consume the minimum of system resources, can run on any hardware and software platform, and can be extended dynamically. Java 是为了解决在复杂的、大规模分布式网络环境下开发应用程序的挑战而设计的。其中最大的一个挑 战是确保交付的程序:占用最少的系统资源,并且能在任何硬件、软件平台下运行,能被动态扩展。 Java originated as part of a research project to develop advanced software for a wide variety of network devices and embedded systems. The goal was to develop a small, reliable, portable, distributed, real-time operating platform. When the project started, C++ was the language of choice. But over time the difficulties encountered with C++ grew to the point where the problems could best be addressed by creating an entirely new language platform. Design an architecture decisions drew from a variety of language such as Eiffel, SmallTalk, Objective, C, and Cedar/Mesa. The result is a language platform that has proven ideal for developing secure, distributed, network based end-user applications in environments ranging from network-embedded devices to the World-Wide-Web an the desktop. Java 最初只是一个为各种网络和嵌入式设备而研究的软件系统的一部分,这个系统的目标是一个小的、 可信赖的、可移植的,分布式的、实时的平台。最开始 C++语言是这个平台的首选。但随着时间的推移, C++出现了很多问题, 有必要开发一个全新的语言平台。 我们根据 Eiffel, SmallTalk, Objective, C, and Cedar/Mesa 等语言来做出决策,结果是开发出了一个理想的、能在从嵌入式网络设备到万维网到桌面等 各种环境下方便的开发安全的、分布的、基于网络的应用程序的平台。 `The design requirements of Java are driven by the nature of the computing environments in which software must be deployed. Java 的设计要求是由软件所部署的计算环境的本质决定的. The massive growth of the Internet and the World-Wide Web leads us to a completely new way of looking at development and distribution of software. To live in the world of electronic commerce and distribution, Java technology must enable the development of secure, high performance, and highly robust applications on multiple platforms in heterogeneous, distributed networks. 互联网和万维网的快速发展带领我们用新的眼光去看待开发和发布软件。在电子商务的时代,Java 必须 具有开发安全性、高效性、健壮的、大众的、能在多平台和多样化、分布式网络运行的程序。 Operating on multiple platforms in heterogeneous networks invalidates the traditional schemes of binary distribution , release, upgrade, patch, and so on. To survive in this jungle, java must be architecture neutral, portable, and dynamically adaptable. 为了能在异构网络的多个平台上执行二进制发布、升级、修补等计划的环境中发展,Java 必须是总体结 构不带偏向性的、可移植的、且能动态地自适应的。 The java system that emerged to meet there needs in simple, so it can be easily programme familiar, so that current developers c object oriented ,to take advantage of modern software development methodologies and to fit into9 distributed client- multithreaded, for high performance in applications that need to perform multiple concurrent activities , and interpreted ,for maximum portability and dynamic capabilities. Java 系统的出现使得这些需求变得简单,所以可以很容易的被大多数开发人员所使用;大众的,所以现 在的开发人员可以很容易的学习 Java;面对对象的,利用现代软件开发方法的优势以适应分布式客户端 -服务器应用程序;多线程的,用于高性能的执行多个并发活动,如多媒体;解释型的,为了最大的可 移植性和动态能力。 Together, the above requirements comprise quite a collection of buzzwords, so let’s examine some of them and their respective benefits before going on. 总的来说,上述包括相当多的专业术语,所以在继续之前先让我们来认识一下它们以及它们所带来的的 各种好处。 What's completely new is the manner in which java and its run-time system have combined them to produce a flexible and powerful programming system. Java 和它在运行时的系统能包含有良好的操作性以及强大的编译设计系统是一种全新的方式。 Developing your applications using Java results in software that is portable across multiple machine architectures, operating systems, and graphical user interfaces, secure, and high performance. With Java, your job as a software developer is much easier--you focus your full attention on the end goal of shipping innovative products on time, based on the solid foundation of Java. The better way to develop software is here, now, brought to you by the Java language platform. 使用 Java 开发您的应用软件所带来的是可在多种机器总体结构、操作系统和图形用户借口间的移植, 安全性和高性能。使用 Java,你作为软件开发人员的工作室非常容易的--基于 Java 的基础您可以专注 发展和及时创新。开发软件的最好方法在这里,现在,给您带来 Java 语言平台。Very dynamic languages like lisp, TCL, and SmallTalk are often used for prototyping. one of the reasons for their success at this is that they are very robust---you don't have to worry about freeing or corrupting memory. 非常具有生命力的语言如 lisp、tcl 和 SmallTalk 常常用于充当原型构造技术。他们在这取得成功的其 中一个原因是:他们非常强大,您不需要内存的释放或者损坏。 Similarly ,programmers can be relatively fearless about dealing with memory when programming in java .the garbage collection system makes the programmer'with the burden of memory management taken off the programmer's shoulders , storage allocation errors go away. 同样的,程序员在使用 Java 编程的时候可以不用过多担心存储问题。无用单元手机系统使程序员的工 作大为容易,卸下了程序员肩上存储管理的负担,存储分配错误不再发生。 Another reason commonly given that like lisp , TCl, and smalltalk are good for prototyping is that they don't require you to pin down decision early on these languages are semantically rich.10 一般认为像 LISP、TCL 和 SmallTack 这样一些语言十分适合于原型法的另一理由,是因为它们不要求你 受早期决定的约束---这样的语言的语义是很丰富的。 Java has exactly th it forces you to make explicit choices . along with these choices come a lot of assistance you can write method invocations and ,if you get something wrong, you get told about it at compile time . you don't have to worry about method invocations error. Java 具有完全相反的性质,它强制你做出明确的选择。伴随着这些选择的是许多助理---如:你可以写 一些方法的调用,如果有错误,你会在编译时被告知。您也不需要担心方法调用错误。 4.1 An operating system is the software which acts as an interface between a user of a computer and the computer hardware.操作系统是计算机用户和硬件的软件接口。The purpose of an operating system is to provide an environment in which a user may execute program. 操作系统的目的是 提供用户一个可以执行程序的环境。The primary goal of an operating system is thus to make the computer system convenient to use. 操作系统的主要目标因此是使计算机系统便于使用。A secondary goal is to use the computer hardware in an efficient way. 其次是高效地使用计算机硬件。 We can view an operating system as a resource allocator. 我们可以把操作系统看做是一个资源 分配器。A computer system has many resources which may be required to solve a problem: CPU time, memory space, file storage, input/output(I/O) devices, and so on.一个计算机系统拥有 许多资源, 因此需要去解决一些问题, cpu 时间, 如 内存空间, 文件存储, 输入输出设备等。 operating The system acts as the manager of these resources and allocates them to specific programs and users as necessary for their tasks. 操作系统就像是资源管理员,把资源分配给特定的程序和用户当它们 工作需要时。Since there may be many, possibly conflicting, requests for resources, the o/s must decide which requests are allocated resources to operate the computer system fairly and efficiently. 因此有可能会有很多有可能产生冲突的资源请求,操作系统必须决定分配资源给哪个请 求能使计算机系统合理和有效的运行。 Early computers were(physically) very large machines run from a console.早期的计算机是从控 制台运行的体积非常大的机器。The programmer would write a program and then operate the program directly from the operator’s console. 程序员要写一条程序然后直接从操作者的控制台操作程序。 Software such as assemblers, loaders, and compilers improved on the convenience of programming the system, but also required substantial set-up time. 象汇编程序、装入程序及编译程序这样 的软件使系统软件编程更方便,但同时也需要大量的启动时间。To reduce the setup time, operators were hired and similar jobs were batched together.[1]为了能减少这些准备时间,操作者就被雇 佣,相似的作业成批排在一起。 Batch systems allowed automatic job sequencing by a resident monitor and improved the overall utilization of the computer greatly. 批处理系统通过一个常驻内存的监控程序允许自动的作业定 序。The computer no longer had to wait for human operation. 这样计算机就不必再等待用户操作。 CPU utilization was still low, however, because of the slow speed of the I/O devices relative to the CPU. Offline operation of slow devices was tried. 然而,CPU 使用率仍然不高,这是因为 I/O 设备的处理速度较 CPU 慢导致的。 Buffering was another approach to improving system performance by overlapping the input, output, and computation of a single job. 缓冲机制是另一种提高系统系能的方法,它将一条作业的输入、 输出和计算工作重叠交错进行。Finally, spooling allowed the CPU to overlap the input of one job with the computation and output of other jobs.最后,伪脱机技术允许 CPU 将一条作业的输入和其 他作业的计算输出交错进行。11 Spooling also provides a pool of jobs which have been read and are waiting to be run. 伪脱 机也为那些已经被读入并且还在等待运行的作业提供一个作业池。This job pool supports the concept of multiprogramming. 这个作业池支持一种叫做多程序设计的概念。With multiprogramming, several jobs are kept i the CPU is switched back and forth between them in order to increase CPU utilization and to decrease the total real time needed to execute a job. 在 这种多程序设计技术中,多个作业可以同时存放在内存中;CPU 在这些作业中来回切换控制,以至于增 加 CPU 使用率和减少执行一条作业的总时间。 Multiprogramming, which was developed to improve performance, also allows time sharing. 多 道程序设计被开发来提高性能,也允许分时。 Time-shared operating systems allow many users (from one to several hundred) to use a computer system interactive at the same time. 分时操作系统允许多个用户(从一个到几百个)同时交互式 地使用计算机系统。As the system switches rapidly from one user to the next, each user is given the impression that he has his own computer. 由于系统迅速地从一个用户切换到下一个用户,每 一个用户被给予一种他拥有自己的计算机的印象。Other operating systems types include real-time systems and multiprocessor systems. 其他操作系统类型包括实时系统和多处理机系统。 A real-time system is often used as control de-vice in a dedicated application. 实时系统通 常被用作专用的应用的控制设备。 Sensors bring data to the computer. 传感器把数据带给计算机。 The computer must analyze the data and possibly adjust controls to modify the sensor inputs. 计算机必须分析数据,也可能调整控制去修改传感器的输入。 Systems, which control scientific experiments, medical computer systems, industrial control systems, and some display systems are real-time systems. 控制科学的实验,医学的计算机系统, 工业的控制系统和一些显示系统等系统都是实时系统。 A real-time operating system has well-defined fixed time constraints.实时操作系统有定义明 确的固定的时间约束。 Processing must be done within the defined constraints, or the system will fail. 处理必须 在定义的约束中完成,否则系统将失败。 A multiprocessor system has more than one CPU. 多处理机系统有不只一个 CPU。 The obvious advantages would appear to be greater computing power and reliability. 显著的 优势好像是强大的计算能力和可靠性。 There are various types of operating systems for multiprocessors and multicomputers. 有各 种各样的操作系统用于多处理机和多计算机。 It is more or less possible to distinguish two kinds of operating systems for multiple CPU systems: Loosely coupled, such as network operating system and distributed o/s, and tightly coupled, such as parallel o/s. 这或多或少可能区分两种多 CPU 系统的操作系统:松耦合,例如网 络操作系统和分布式操作系统,和紧耦合,如并行操作系统。 As we shall see, loosely and tightly-coupled s/w is rought analogous to loosely and tight-coupled h/w. 我们应该看到,松紧耦合软件大概类似于松紧耦合硬件。 The operating system must ensure correct operation of the computer system. 操作系统必须确 保改正计算机系统的操作。 To prevent user programs from interfering with the proper operation of the system, the h/w was modified to create two modes: user mode and monitor mode[4]. 为了阻止用户程序干扰系统 适当的操作,硬件被修改成两种模式:用户模式和监控模式。 Various instructions(such as I/O instructions and halt instructions) are priviledged and can12 only be executed in monitor mode. 许多指令(例如 I/O 指令和中断指令)是有特权的,只能在监控 模式下被执行。 The memory in which the monitor resides must also be protected from modification by the user. 监控程序所在的内存也必须保护起来以防用户修改。 A time prevents infinite loops. 定 时 器 可 以 防 止 死 循 环 。 Once these changes (dual mode, privileged instructions, memory protection, timer interrupt) have been made to the basic computer architecture, it is possible to write a correct operating system. 一旦这些对基本 计算机体系结构的改变(双模,权限指令,内存保护,定时器中断)被做到,这可能写成一个改进的操 作系统。 《计算机专业英语教程》 (第 4 版) 5.1 Internet 因特网 @ Many networks exist in the world, often with different hardware and software. 许多网络通常会以不同的硬件和软件的形式存在于世上。 People connected to one network often want to communicate with people attached to a different one. attached to 附属于 连接了一个网络的人常常想与附属于一个不相同的网络的人交流。 This desire requires connecting together different, and frequently incompatible networks, sometimes by using machines called gateways to make the connection and provide the necessary translation, both in terms of hardware and software.

Basically 基本上 the client side 客户端 the server side 服务器端 由于 Web 基本上是一个客户-服务器系统,客户端和服务器端我们都讨论。14 The Client Side 客户端 @ From the users' point of view, the Web consists of a vast, worldwide collection of documents, usually just called pages for short. 从用户的角度来看,Web 由巨大的全世界范围收集的通常简称为页的文件组成。 Each page may contain links (pointers) to other, related pages, anywhere in the world. 每一页可能包含链接到一些在世界任何地方的其他的相关的页面的链接。 Users can follow a link (e.g., by clicking on it), which then takes them to the page pointed to. 用户可以跟踪一个链接(例如,通过点击它) ,然后带他们到所指向的页面。 This process can be repeated indefinitely, possibly traversing hundreds of linked pages while doing so. Indefinitely 无限期地 traversing 经过 这个处理可以无限重复,当我们那么做,可能经过数以百计的链接页面。 Pages that point to other pages are said to use hypertext. Hypertext 超文本 指向其他一些页面的页面被称为使用超文本。 Web pages can combine color desktop publishing, hypertext linking, interactive scripting, sound, video, and even virtual reality. Combine 组合 publishing 出版 网页可以组合彩色桌面出版,超文本链接,交互脚本,声音,视频甚至虚拟现实。 When hypertext pages are mixed with other media, the result is called hypermedia. mixed with 与。。混合 hypermedia 多媒体 。 当超文本与其他媒体混合,其结果就称为多媒体。 Pages are viewed with a browser. 使用浏览器浏览页面。 The Server Sider 服务器端 @ Every Web site has a server process listening to TCP port 80 for incoming connections from clients (normally browsers). Incoming 引入的 每个站点都有一个服务进程监听从客户端(通常是浏览器)引入的连接的 TCP 的 80 端口。 After a connection has been established, the client sends one request and the server sends one reply. Established 建立 在一个连接已建立,客户端发送一个请求和服务器发送一个回复。 Then the connection is released. Released 释放 然后连接被释放了。 The protocol that defines the legal requests and replies is called HTTP. Legal 合法的 那个定义合法的请求和回复的协议叫做 HTTP。 A simple example using it may provide a reasonable idea of how Web servers work. 一个使用 HTTP 的简单例子也许可以提供一个 Web 服务是如何工作的合理的想法。 Figure 5-1 shows how the various parts of the Web model fit together. fit together 组装在一起 图 5-1 显示了 Web 模式的各个部分是如何组装在一起的。15 @ For this example, we can imagine that the user has just clicked on some piece of text or perhaps on an icon that points to the page whose name(URL-Uniform Resource Locator )is http://www.w3.org/hypertext/WWW/Theproject.html. 对于这个例子,我们可以想象用户已经点击了指向名为 xxx 的页面的一些文本或者或许是一个图标。 A URL has three parts:the name of the protocol (http), the name of the machine where the page is located (www.w3.org) , and the name of the file containing the page (hypertext/WWW/TheProgject.html). 一个 URL 有三个部分:协议的名称(HTTP) ,页面所在的机器的名称,和包含了页面的文件名。 The steps that occur between the user's click and the page being displayed are as follows: Occur 发生 发生在用户点击和页面被显示间的步骤如下: 1The browser determines the URL (by seeing what was selected ). Deterimines 决定 浏览器决定 URL(通过查看那个被选择了) 。 2The browser asks DNS for the IP address ofwww.w3.org. 浏览器向域名服务器要 www.w3.org 的 IP 地址。 3DNS replies with 18.23.0.23. 域名服务器返回 18 4The browser makes a TCP connection to port 80 on 18.23.0.23. 浏览器创建一个到 18 的 80 端口的 TCP 连接。 5It then sends a GET /hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html command. 然后它发送一个 xx 命令。 6Thewww.w3.orgserver sends the file TheProject.html. 7The TCP connection is released. 8The browser displays all the text in TheProject.html 9The browser fetches and displays all images in TheProject.html. Fetches 获取 Surfing the Web 网络冲浪 @ Once your Web browser is open and you are connected to the Internet, the page currently designated as your browser's starting page or home page will be displayed within the browser window. Designate 指定 一旦你的网络浏览器打开然后你连接到了因特网,那个当前指定为你浏览器起始页或者首页的页面将会 在浏览器窗口中显示。 (Usually this page is the home page for your browser's, school's , or ISP's Web site, but it can usually be changed to any page using your browser's Options or Preferences dialog box.) (通常这页是你的浏览器的,学校的,因特网服务提供商的网络站点,但是你可以使用你的浏览器的选 项或者偏爱对话框来改变成任何页面。 ) @ All browsers have navigational tools to help you move forward or backward through the pages viewed in your current Internet session, as well as buttons or menu options to print Web pages when necessary. Navigational 引导的 所有的浏览器都有导航工具来帮助你在你当前的因特网会话中向前或者向后查看页面,同样也有用来打 印当需要时的网络页面的按钮和菜单选项。 Figure 5-2 illustrates the most common components of the Microsoft Internet Explorer and16 Netscape Navigator browsers. 图 5 C 2 举例说明微软 Internet Explorer 和网景航海家浏览器的最常见的组成部分。 Using URLs and Hyperlinks 使用 URL 和超链接 @ To change from the starting Web page to a new Web page, you can type the appropriate URL in the browser's address bar or location bar and press Enter. Type 输入 为了从起始页转到一个新的页面,你可以在浏览器的地址栏和本地栏中输入一个合适的 URL,然后按下 回车键。 You can either edit the existing URL or delete it and type a new one. 你既可以编辑存在的 URL 也可以删除它然后输入一个新的。 Be sure to match the spelling, capitalization, and punctuation exactly. Spelling 拼写 capitalization 大写 punctuation 标点 一定要准确的匹配拼写,大写和标点。 If you don’t know the appropriate URL to type, you can search for an appropriate page, as discussed shortly. 如果你不知道合适的 URL 要输入,你可以搜索一个合适的页面,如不久前讨论的。 @ If there is a hyperlink displayed for the page you would like to go to, simply click on the link. 如果这里有一个显示了你想要去的页面的链接,简单点击链接即可。 Remember, hyperlinks can be either text or image-based. 记住,超链接既可以是文本也可以是基于图像的。 If you are not sure if something on a page is a link or not, rest the mouse pointer on it for a moment. 如果你不确定在页面上的东西是链接或者不是,让鼠标指向它一段时间。 If it is a hyperlink, the pointer should change to indicate that it is a link. Indicate 表明 如果它是一个链接,那么指针会改变,这表明它是一个链接。 The URL for the new page is also displayed on the browser's status bar. 新页面的 URL 也会显示在浏览器的状态栏。 Once you click the hyperlink, the appropriate page is displayed. 一旦你点击了超链接,合适的页面被显示。 To return to a previous page, click the Back button on your browser's toolbar. 为了回到先前的页面,点击在浏览器上的工具条中的返回按钮。 To print the current Web page, use browser's Print button or select Print from the browser's File menu. 为了打印当前的网页,使用浏览器的打印按钮或者从浏览器的文件菜单中选择打印。 Things You May Encounter on a Web Page 在网页上你将遇到的东西 @ You will encounter a variety of different objects on Web pages as you explore the World Wide Web. Explore 浏览 当你在浏览万维网时,你将在网页上遇到各种各样的不同的对象。 Though we can’s go into an in-depth discussion on the various possible Web-page components here, it is good to be a familiar with the most common ones so you'll know how to deal with them as you encounter them.17 在这里,尽管我们不能对各种可能的网页组件进行深入的讨论,最好是对大部分的组件都熟悉,这样你 就能知道当你遇到它们时如何处理它们了。 Some common things you may run into are illustrated in Figure 5-3. 在图 5-3 中举例说明了一些你也许会遇到的常见的东西。 《计算机专业英语教程》 (第 4 版) 5.2 Type of Connection 连接类型 @ As discussed in the previous chapter, there are a variety of wired and wireless ways to connect to the Internet. wired 有线的 wireless 无线的 正如前面章节讨论的,有各种各样的的有线的和无线的方式来连接到因特网。 In virtually all setups, the computer to which you connect is usually connected to a large network calle regional networks are connected to the major high-speed networks within each country called backbone networks. virtually 事实上 setups 设置 事实上所有的设置,你所连接的计算机通常连接到一个叫做区域网的巨大的网络;区域网又连接到叫做 主干网的在每个国家内部的主要高速网络。 Backbone networks within a country are connected to the major high-speed networks within ecah country called backbone networks. 一个国家中多个主干网连接到每个国家中的主要高速网络称为主干网。 Backbone networks within a country are connected together and to backbone networks in other countries to form the Internet. 一个国家中的多个主干网的连接及与其他国家中的主干网的连接就形成了因特网。 @ The following sections discuss the most common types of Internet connections. 下面部分讨论了大部分常用的因特网连接类型。 1.Dial-Up Connections 拨号连接 @ Dial-up connections usually work over regular telephone lines. regular 正规的 拨号连接通常工作在正规的电话线。 To connect to the Internet, your modem (or other appropriate interface device ) dials up and connects to a modem attached to your ISP's computer.. modem 调制解调器 为了连接到因特网,你的调制解调器(或其他适当的接口设备)拨号然后连接到附属于你的因特网服务 提供商的计算机的调制解调器。 While you are connected, your PC is assigned a temporary IP address for the current session. 当你连接上了,你的电脑被指派一个用于当前会话的临时的 IP 地址。 At the end of each Internet session, you disconnect from your ISP's computer to allow another user to connect in your place. disconnect 断开一个网络连接 在每一次因特网会话结束时,你从你的因特网服务提供商的计算机上断开一个网络连接以允许处于你位 置的其他用户去连接。 One advantage to a dial-up connection is security. 拨号连接的一个优势是安全。 Since you are not continually connected, it is much less likely that anyone would gain access18 to your computer via the Internet, to either obtain information or mess with the data on your PC or, more commonly, to user your computer in some type of illegal or unethical manner. via 经由 mess with 搞糟 打扰 illegal 非法的 因为你不持续地连接,所以不大可能有人能经由因特网获得你计算机的访问,或者获得你的 PC 上的信 息或者搞糟电脑的数据,或者更常见的是以某种不合法或者不道德的方式使用你的计算机。 These types of hacking activities are discussed later. hacking 黑客行为 这些不同类型的黑客行为活动后面将讨论。 @ With a dial-up connection your telephone will be tied up while you are accessing the Internet, unlesss a second phone line is used. tied up 被占用 使用拨号连接,当你正在访问因特网时你的电话将被占用,除非第二条电话线被使用。 Some Internet call-waiting or call-forwarding services allow you to be notified when you get a telephone call while you are connected to the Internet. call-waiting 呼叫等待 call-forwarding 自动转接 在你连接了因特网期间,当来了一个电话呼叫时,一些因特网呼叫等待或者自动转接服务会通知你。 They are generally set up to allow the person to l 它们通常设置允许人们留下一个简答的信息。 some newer systems give you a short window of time to disconnect from the Internet and pick up the telephone call, if desired. 一些新的系统给你一个较短的时间从因特网上断开然后拿起电话,如果你愿意。 Newer dial-up modems are expected to facilitate some type of call-waiting service, as well. facilitate 促进 新的拨号调制解调器被期望来促进某种类型的呼叫等待服务。 Standard Dial-up 标准拨号 @ Standard dial-up Internet service uses a conventional dial-up modem rated at a maximum data transfer rate of 56 Kbps. 标准拨号因特网服务使用一个最大数据交换数度是 56Kbps 的传统的拨号调制解调器。 These modems are commonly used with PCs and Internet appplicances. 这些调制解调器通常用于 PCs 和因特网应用。 Portable devices may also use a conventional dial- if so, they need to be connected to standard telephone jacks to access the Internet. Portable 便携的 jacks 插座 便携的设备也使用传统的拨号调制解调器,假如这样,他们为了访问因特网需要连接到标准的电话插座 上。 Standard dial-up Internet service range from free to about $ 25 per month. 标准的拨号因特网服务从免费到大约每个月 25 的范围内。 ISDN 综合业务数字网 @ Another dial-up option is ISDN. 另外一个拨号选择是综合业务数字网。 ISDN(integrated services digital network) allows digital transmission of data over ordinary telephone lines. transmission 传输 综合业务数字网允许通过不同的电话线进行数据的数字传输。 It requires a special ISDN adapter or modem and can transfer data up to 128 Kpbs. 它需要一个特殊的 ISDN 适配器或者调制解调器,可以传输数据达到 128Kbps。19 2. Direct Connections 直接相连 @ Unlike dial-up connections that only connect to your ISP's computer when you need to access the Internet, direct connections keep you continually connected to the Internet. 不像拨号连接那样,当你需要访问因特网时,只能连接到 ISP 的计算机上,直连使得你可以持续连接到 因特网。 With a direct (always-on) connection, your PC is typically issued a static (nonchanging) IP address to be used to transfer data back and forth via the Internet. issued 发布 通过直连,你的 PC 典型的发布一个用于经由因特网来回交换数据的静态 IP 地址。 PCs connected to the network always have an Internet connection available-Internet access requires only opening a browser. 电脑连接到网络总是有一个因特网连接可能的网络访问只需要打开一个浏览器。 @ Types of direct Internet connections include connecting through a school or office LAN, as well as DSL, cable, satellite, and fixed wireless connections. Cable 电缆 satellite 卫星 直接的因特网连接类型包括通过一个学校或者政府机关的局域网以及数字用户线,电缆,卫星和固定无 线连接进行连接。 Though, in theory, broadband Internet access can be up to 100 times as fast as a dial-up connection, actual speeds at the present time are more like 25 to 50 times as fast. Theory 理论 broadband Internet access 宽带上网 虽然,在理论上,宽带上网可以快速到拨号连接的 100 倍,实际现在的速度则更像是 25 到 50 倍。 Typical download speeds for DSL and cable are about 1.5 M 数字用户线和电缆的典型地下载速度大约是 1.5Mbps。 satellite and fixed wireless usually download data between 500 Kbps to 1 Mbps. 卫星和固定无线通常下载数据在 500Kbps 到 1Mbps 之间。 Virtually all of these services use slower upload speeds. 几乎所有这些服务使用较慢的上传速度。 The most significant characteristics of each of these types of broadband Internet access are discussed next. 每一种这些宽带上网的类型的最重要的特点将在后面讨论。 School or Office LAN @ Most school or office LANs that offer a direct connection to the Internet lease a high-speed dedicated line (such as an ISDN or T1 line) from the telephone company or an Internet provider. lease 租约 dedicated 专用的 大多数学校或者政府机关的局域网,提供一个与因特网直接相连的从电话公司或者因特网提供者那里租 约一条高速专用线。 The speed of this type of Internet access depends on the speed of the connection between the school or offices and their Internet provider, as well as the speed of the LAN itself. 这种类型的因特网接入速度依赖学校或者政府机关和它们的因特网提供者间的连接速度,同样也依赖于 局域网本身的速度。 DSL @ DSL (digital subscriber line) is currently available only to users who are relatively close (three miles or less ) to a telephone switching station with telephone lines capable20 of handling DSL, and long waits for installation are not uncommon. subscriber 用户 capable 有能力的 DSL 目前只对那些较靠近电话交换站(3 英里或小于 3 英里) ,有能力处理 DSL 电话线的用户可用,并且 常要等很长时间安装。 Nevertheless, DSL is a popular broadband option. Nevertheless 然而 然而,DSL 是一项很受欢迎的宽带的选择。 DSL is sometimes offered at different speeds to fit different needs and budgets, such as a slower, less-expensive personal version and a faster business option. Budgets 预算 DSL 有时提供不同的速度以满足不同的需要和预算,例如慢速低价的个人版本和快速的商业选择。 The monthly cost of standard DSL service is about $50. 标准 DSL 的每月消费大约是 50 美元。 Cable 电缆 @ A third type of direct Internet connection-cable-is the most widely used home broadband alternative. Alternative 供选择的 第三种因特网直连类型是电缆,它是最广泛使用的家庭宽度选择。 Cable connections are very fast and are available to anyone with cable access whose cable provider has upgraded the system to support Internet access. upgraded 升级 电缆连接是相当快的,可以让任何人通过电缆访问,电缆提供商升级了支持因特网访问的系统。 Just about all cable Internet access today is two-way (full-duplex), with the cable being used to transfer data in both directions. 今天几乎所有的电缆因特网访问是双向的(全双工) ,通过在两个方向上用来交换数据的电缆。 One disadvantage of cable is that all users in an immediate geographical area share the bandwidth of their local cable. 电缆的一个劣势是在邻近地区的所有用户共同使用他们本地电缆的带宽。 Though this may not prove to be a problem all the time, during high-use times of day--such as early evening--the speed of cable Internet service can slow down dramatically as your neighbors go online. dramatically 戏剧的 尽管这并不能证明是一个问题,在一天的高使用时间电缆因特网服务的速度会变低,戏剧的你的邻居上 线了。 Cost is about $40 per month, in addition to regular cable fees. in addition to 除...之外 fee 费用 费用大概是每月 40 美元,除了常规的电缆费用外。 Satellite 卫星 @ Satellite Internet access is often the only broadband option in rural areas. rural 农村的 卫星因特网访问是在农村地区唯一的宽带选择。 It requires a satellite modem and a transceiver satellite dish mounted outside the home or building. transceiver 收发器 dish 蝶形天线 mounted 安装 它需要人造卫星调制解调器和安装在室外或建筑物外的收发卫星蝶形天线。21 The two-way satellite services available today, such as StarBand, are relatively reliable, though an unobstructed view of the southern sky is requited and access may degrade very heavy rainstorms. 虽然需要在蝶形天线收发方向的上空没有任何障碍,并且在大暴风雨期间访问性可能降低,但目前可用 的两路人造卫星服务,如 StarBand,是相当可靠的。 Typical cost is about $70 per month. 典型的费用大约是每月 70 美元。 Fixed Wireless 固定无线 @ One last type of broadband access that is relatively new for consumer use but shows great promise is fixed wireless. 最后一种宽度访问是固定无线,这种访问方式对消费者使用是相当新的,但显示出很大的前途。 This type of service, such as Sprint Broadband Direct, is similar to satellite service in that it requires a modem and an outside-mounted transceiver, but is typically available only in larger metropolitan areas. metropolitan 大都市的 这种服务的类型,例如 Sprint Broadband Direct,像卫星服务一样需要一个调制解调器和一个外部安 装的收发器,但通常只有在大的大城市地区。 A clear line-or-sight is required between the transceiver and the provider's radio transmission tower, which relays information between the user's transceiver and the Internet. radio 无线电广播 tower 塔 relays 中继 转播 在收发器和提供商的无线传输塔之间需要有一条无障碍的视线通路, 传输塔在用户的收发器和 Internet 间转播信息。 Cost for service is about $50 per month. 这种服务的费用大约是每月 50 美元。 @ Regardless of the type of connection used, a very important consideration for all users with a direct Internet connection is protecting the computer from unauthorized access or hackers. Regardless of 不管 unauthorized 未经授权的 不管那种类型的连接被使用,对所有直接连接到因特网的用户一个非常重要的考虑是保护计算机不受未 经授权的访问或者黑客的攻击。 While most schools and offices are protected by some type of firewall, many home direct connections are not. 然而大多数学校和政府机关通过一些防火墙来保护,许多直接连接的家庭则不是。 Though it is unlikely that someone would access your home PC in this manner, the possibility will continue to increase as direct home connections become more common. 尽管不大可能有人访问你家的电脑用这种方式,直接连接回家的可能性将持续增长也变得更加普遍。 To protect yourself, all computers using a direct connection should use a personal firewall program--especially those on a home network that allows file sharing. especially 尤其 为了保护你自己,所有使用了直连的计算机可以使用个人防火墙程序--尤其是那些允许文件共享的家庭 网络的计算机。 Firewall programs typically block access to your PC from outside computers, as well as allow you to specify which programs on your PC can access the Internet. block 阻止 specify 指定 防火墙程序典型地阻止从外部来的一些计算机去访问你的电脑,同样也允许你指定在你计算机上的那些22 程序可以访问因特网。 Some firewall software, such as the Zone Alarm software, are available free for home use. 一些防火墙软件,例如 Zone Alarm 软件,对家庭可以免费使用。 Some firewall protection is beginning to be incorporated into other programs, such as Windows XP. incorporated 包含 一些防火墙保护开始纳入其他程序,如 Windows XP。 3. Mobile Wireless Connections 移动无线连接 @ Unlike satellite and fixed wireless connections, which use a cable to connect the modem to some type of fixed transceiver, mobile wireless connections allow the device to be moved from place to place. 不像卫星和固定的无线连接,使用电缆去连接调制解调器或一些固定收发器,移动无线连接允许设备从 一个地方移动到另一个地方。 Consequently, most handheld PCs and other mobile devices (like Web-enabled cell phones) use a mobile wireless connection and access the Internet through the same wireless network as cell phones and messaging devices. Consequently 因此 cell 电池 细胞 因此,大部分手提电脑和其他移动设备(像能用 Web 服务的手机)使用移动无线连接然后通过同样的无 线网络如手机和通信设备访问因特网。 Most mobile phones today capable of Internet access come &wireless Internet-ready& and can immediately be used to retrieve Web content, provided wireless Web service is included in the phone's service plan. retrieve 检索 现在大多数能访问 Internet 的移动电话都处于无线 Internet 就绪状态并且能直接用来检索 Web 内容, 只要提供的无线 Web 服务包括在该手机的服务计划中。 Many handheld PCs also have Internet c if not, a wireless modem can be used. 许多手提电脑也可以建立有互联网的连接;如果不能,可以使用一个无线调制解调器。 Alternately, a modem or other type of adapter can connect the device to a cell phone. Alternately 交替地 交替地,一个调制解调器或者其他类型的适配器可以连接设备到手机。 Notebook PCs can connect to the Internet or a corporate network using either a wireless modem or cell modem. corporate 公司的 cell modem 细胞调制解调器 笔记本电脑使用无线调制解调器或者细胞调制解调器可以连接到因特网或者一个公司的网络。 Some notebook computers today come with wireless capability built into the unit. come with 伴随 built into 固定于 现在的一些笔记本电脑伴随有固定了无线能力的单元。 《计算机专业英语教程》 (第 4 版) 6.2 Carrier Frequencies and Multiplexing 载波频率和多路复用
