不知您有没有意识到,技术工业界正面临着一场革命。这场革命将融合物理学、化学、生物学和计算机科学的知识,创造出一种只有原子微粒大小的计算机和分子级别的微型机械设备。这场革命所带来的新技术,例如纳米技术和量子计算等等,将让计算机的功能不再受到限制。 Xerox公司Palo Alto研究中心的一位科学家Ralph Merkle说:“我们能够让一个只有糖晶体大小的计算部件拥有前所未有的计算能力,相信在不久的将来,可能是在2020年,至多到2050年,我们就可以提供计算能力为每秒钟可以
I wonder if you have not realized that the technology industry is facing a revolution. This revolution will incorporate the knowledge of physics, chemistry, biology and computer science to create a computer and molecular-scale micromechanical device of atomic particle size only. The new technologies brought by this revolution, such as nanotechnology and quantum computing, will no longer limit the capabilities of computers. Ralph Merkle, a scientist at the Palo Alto Research Center at Xerox, said: "We were able to make an computational unit of only the size of a sugar crystal an unprecedented computing power, and we believe in the near future it could be 2020 and up to 2050 You can provide computing power for every second
