3、 computer as a device that accepts input, processes data, stores data, and produces output. According to the mode of processing, computers are either analog or digital. They can also be classified as mainframes, minicomputers, workstations, or microcomputers. All else (for example, the age of the ma
4、chine) being equal, this categorization provides some indication of the computers speed, size, cost, and abilities.Ever since the advent of computers, there have been constant changes. First-generation computers of historic significance, such as UNIVAC (通用自 动计算机), introduced in the early 1950s, were
5、 based on vacuum tubes. Second-generation computers, appearing in the early 1960s, were those in which transistors replaced vacuum tubes. In third-generation computers, dating from the 1960s, integrated circuits replaced transistors. In fourth-generation computers such as microcomputers, which first
6、 appeared in the mid-1970s, large-scale integration enabled thousands of circuits to be incorporated on one chip. Fifth-generation computers are expected to combine very-large-scale integration with sophisticated approaches to computing, including artificial intelligence and true distributed process
7、ing.翻译 P9计算机将变得更加先进，也将 变得更加容易使用。语音识别的改进将使计算机的操作更加容易。虚拟现实，即使用所有人类官能与 计算机进行交互的技术 ，也将有助于 创建更好的人机接口。人们正在开发其他的奇异计算模型，包括使用生物机体的生物 计算、使用具有特定属性的分子的分子计算，以及使用遗传 基本单位 DNA （脱氧核糖核酸）存储数据和执行运算的计算。这些都是可能的未来计算平台的例子，而它 们迄今还能力有限或完全属于理 论范畴。科学家们研究它们，是因为嵌入硅中的 电路的微小型化受到物理限制。还有一些限制与即使最微小的晶体管也会产生的热量有关。UNIT 2词组翻译1. function

Unlike floppy and hard disks
10、, which use magnetic charges to represent 1s and 0s, optical discs use reflected light. On a CD-ROM disc, 1s and 0s are represented by flat areas and bumpy (高低不平的) areas (called “pits”) on its bottom surface. The CD-ROM disc is read by a laser that projects a tiny beam of light on these areas. The a
11、mount of reflected light determines whether the area represents a 1 or a 0.Like a commercial CD found in music stores, a CD-ROM is a “read-only” disc. Read-only means it cannot be written on or erased by the user. Thus, you as a user have access only to the data imprinted (压印) by the publisher.A sin
12、gle CD-ROM disc can store 650 megabytes (兆字节) of data. That is equivalent to 451 floppy disks. With that much information on a single disc, the time to retrieve or access the information is very important. An important characteristic of CD-ROM drives is their access rate.翻译 P31调制解调器是在模拟与数字信号之间进行转换的设
13、备。计算机使用的是数字信号，这 种信号由离散单元组成，通常用一系列 1 和 0 表示。模拟信号是连续变化的；声波就是模拟信号的一个例子。调制解调器经常用于实现计算机之间通过电话线的互相通信。调制解调器将发送端计算机的数字信号转换成可通过电话线传输的模拟信号。信号到达目的地后，另外一个调制解调器重构原来的数字信号，供接收端计算机处理。如果两个调制解调器可同时互相发送数据，那么它 们采用的就是全双工工作方式；如果一次只有一个调 制解调器可以发送数据，那么它 们采用的则 是半双工工作方式。UNIT 3词组翻译1. storage register 存储寄存器2. function statement

16、computer. It lets the programmer express data processing in a symbolic manner without regard to machine-specific details.The difficulty of writing programs in the machine language of 0s and 1s led first to the development of assembly language, which allows programmers to use mnemonics (助记符) for inst
17、ructions and symbols for variables. Such programs are then translated by a program known as an assembler (汇编程序，汇编器) into the binary encoding used by the computer. Other pieces of system software known as linking loaders (连 接装入程序) combine pieces of assembled code and load them into the machines main
18、memory unit, where they are then ready for execution. The concept of linking separate pieces of code was important, since it allowed “libraries” of programs to be built up to carry out common tasksa first step toward the increasingly emphasized notion of software reuse. Assembly language was found t
19、o be sufficiently inconvenient that higher-level languages (closer to natural languages) were invented in the 1950s for easier, faster programming; along with them came the need for compilers, programs that translate high-level language programs into machine code. As programming languages became mor
20、e powerful and abstract, building efficient compilers that create high-quality code in terms of execution speed and storage consumption became an interesting computer science problem in itself.翻译 P55面向对象程序设计语言，如 C+和 Java，基于 传统的高级语言，但它们使程序设计员能够从合作对象集而非命令列表的角度进行思考。诸如圆之类的对象具有像圆的半径一类的属性，以及在 计 算机屏幕上绘制该对象
21、的命令。一个对象类可以从其他的对象类继承特征。例如，定义正方形的类可以从定义长方形的类那里继承直角等特征。这一套程序 设计类简化了程序设计员 的工作， 带来了更多“ 可复用的”计算机代码。可复用代码使程序设计员可以使用已经设计、编写和测试 的代码。 这使得程序设计员的工作变得比较容易，并带来更加可靠和高效的程序。UNIT 4词组翻译1. inference engine 推理机2. system call 系统调用3. compiled language 编译执行的 语言4. parallel computing 并行计算5. pattern matching 模式匹配6. memory lo

Software engineers write source code using high-level programming languages that people can understand. Computers c
24、annot directly execute source code, but need a compiler to translate these instructions into a low-level language called machine code.Compilers collect and reorganize (compile) all the instructions in a given set of source code to produce object code. Object code is often the same as or similar to a
25、 computers machine code. If the object code is the same as the machine language, the computer can run the program immediately after the compiler produces its translation. If the object code is not in machine language, other programssuch as assemblers, binders (联编程序), linkers, and loaders (加载程序)finis

Many different manufacturers often produce versions of the same
27、 programming language, so compilers for a language may vary between manufacturers.翻译 P78在软件中，错误是指导致程序 发生故障或产生不正确结果的 编码或逻辑错误。较轻微的错误，如光标表现异常，会造成不便或带来挫折，但不会对信息产生破坏性影响。较严重的错误会导致程序“中止”（对命令停止反应），可能使用户别无选择，只能重新启动程序，结果致使任何前面已经做好但尚未保存的工作 丢失。两种情况无论是哪一种，程序 员都必须凭借称为调试的过 程， 发现并改正错误。由于错误对重要数据的潜在危险，商用 应用程序在发行前要 经过

Firstly, there is maintenance to repair software faults. Coding errors are usually re
31、latively cheap to correct; design errors are more expensive as they may involve rewriting several program components. Requirements errors are the most expensive to repair because of the extensive system redesign that may be necessary. Secondly, there is maintenance to adapt the software to a differe
32、nt operating environment. This type of maintenance is required when some aspect of the systems environment such as the hardware, the platform operating system or other support software changes. The application system must be modified to adapt it to cope with these environmental changes. And thirdly,
33、 there is maintenance to add to or modify the systems functionality. This type of maintenance is necessary when the system requirements change in response to organizational or business change. The scale of the changes required to the software is often much greater than for the other types of mainten
34、ance. In practice, there isnt a clear-cut distinction between these types of maintenance. When you adapt the system to a new environment, you may add functionality to take advantage of new environmental features. Software faults are often exposed because users use the system in unanticipated ways. C

A server often contains all of a networked groups data and enables LAN workstations or PCs to be set up without large storage capabilities. In this scenario (方案 ), each PC may have “local” memory
48、 (for example, a hard drive) specific to itself, but the bulk of storage resides on the server. This reduces the cost of the workstation or PC because less expensive computers can be purchased, and it simplifies the maintenance of software because the software resides only on the server rather than
