这个问题来自于对过去50年左右计算领域各种进展的评论。

其他一些与会者请我把这个问题作为一个问题向整个论坛提出。

这里的基本思想不是抨击事物的现状,而是试图理解提出基本新思想和原则的过程。

我认为我们在大多数计算领域都需要真正的新想法,我想知道最近已经完成的任何重要而有力的想法。如果我们真的找不到他们,那么我们应该问“为什么?”和“我们应该做什么?”

I'd say the biggest trend is an ever increasing lack of location dependence and pervasiveness. An interesting philosophical exercise these days is to count the computers in you immediate area. They're everywhere desktops, keyboards, microwaves, radios, televisions, cell phones etc... My grandmother computer is illiterate however her life is as infested with small computers as everyone else's. She can make a call to me from the middle of an empty field. I can then answer that call zipping down the highway.

数码相机呢?

根据维基百科,第一个真正的数码相机出现在1988年,大众市场的数码相机在20世纪90年代末变得负担得起。

The mouse - There have been posts about human interaction. To me, the mouse was the gateway to human interaction. Without it, we'd still be typing and not clicking in dragging, even with our fingers. GUI - Complimented the mouse perfectly. I work in an environment where an as400 is the backend of one of our major apps. Yeah.. Interesting stuff but it just reminds me of the screens 'Bill Gates' is working in in the movie 'Pirates of Silicon Valley' even though that's not what it was. To me, 1 and 2 are the reason anybody, including grandpas and grandmas can use a computer. Excel / spreadsheets - Someone mentioned this before but it's work mentioning again. It's so user friendly and is a great entry point for non-technical users to try their hand at simple programming concepts when performing calculations on cells. Granted it came out before 1980, but the versions post 1980 are when the technology in spreadsheets evolved. Internet (of course) - Not sure how people wrote code without it! Don't flame me for repeating because this belongs on every list. INTELLISENSE - LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!!

我认为我们需要真正的新想法 在计算机的大部分领域,我 想知道有什么重要的吗 以及已经完成的强有力的任务 最近。如果我们真的找不到 他们,那么我们应该问“为什么? “我们该怎么办?”

在我看来,我们在计算领域没有那么多新想法,因为我们在很大程度上不需要它们。我们一直在挖掘旧的想法,并从中获得了很多东西,比如cpu速度的显著增长。

当我们因为“井干了”而需要新想法时,我们就会明白需求是发明之母。

数字音乐合成器。

我认为,整个音乐场景都受到了廉价复调合成器的影响。 早期的复调合成器是有效地多个模拟合成器(离散或使用CEM或SSM芯片)。它们都很昂贵,而且数量有限。在80年代,第一个数字系统出现了(我不确定,但我认为Kurzweil是第一个)。 今天,大多数都是数字的——甚至模拟的也是典型的“虚拟模拟”。

问候

编辑:哎呀-我刚刚发现CMI灯管是在1978年发明的。忘掉上面的,抱歉。

它提供了一种信息丰富的方式来传播信息和辩论。我发现它比标准的采访更具互动性,但没有博客评论那么嘈杂。
