Chapter 1821 JAVA
The other party has only one requirement, which is to combine UC and OAK, take advantage of the core instructions of UC, and transform it according to OAK's "embedded system hardware platform architecture" to make it a A sophisticated transmission system especially suitable for the Internet, used to break the rigid interface of static web pages and make web browsing pages "flexible".
This involves two aspects. The first is the need for a language that can write programs suitable for transmission on the network. The code is very concise and small, but the effect is quite good.
There is also another technical specification that can embed small programs into web pages for execution.
The former can simply transform UC, and the latter can simply transform OAK. Because both parties are based on C++, the integration of the two is very smooth. With the joint efforts of everyone, A new programming language was soon developed.
"Now the system has been released," Hu Lidong said: "Last month, Clover Group officially held a CloverWorld conference, launched the development language for this web page embedded program, and released a program that allows the program to accompany the web page on the network. The Applet protocol transmitted on the Internet was officially released at the same time. The new browser developed based on this software, CloverWebscan ”
“These three products are very powerful and mature, combining the outstanding advantages of UC and OAK, and have won the favor of IBM and Microsoft as soon as they were launched. , now there are Apple, D Companies such as EC, Adobe, HP, Oracle, and Netscape came to negotiate. They were all planning to stop their own development of related projects and instead purchase our software licenses to develop corresponding application platforms for their own products. ”
< br>"I came here today Asked about this." Zhou Zhi said: "How many have signed contracts now?"
"The letters of intent have been signed, and the most active ones are Adobe and Netscape, which are already signing contracts."
< br>“Do they have any opinions or suggestions?”
"They haven't mentioned this yet." Hu Lidong said, and then remembered something: "Ah, by the way, they asked why our system has such a weird name - JAVA."
In fact, this suggestion came from a researcher named James Guslin in the team. Because he stayed up late for a long time while developing OAK, they had a special liking for coffee.
The class library of this language has been named after coffee beans, which constitutes an "environmental subculture".
Coincidentally, Clover's UC system also uses many class libraries, and these class libraries are thoughtfully named "handles".
Such a coincidence makes both parties feel that they are a match made in heaven, and coffee is the source of blessing for everyone.
Because the system has changed too much, it is not suitable to continue naming it with UC. However, OAK was discovered by Li Laosan’s information industry trademark lawyer that it had been registered and could not be used. So everyone decided to use Java Island, which produces high-quality coffee, to name this strong brand. A joint new application development tool was named, and the picture was also designed to look like a cup of hot coffee.
Only Zhou Zhi knew that his "handle" came from the Chinese transliterated from the JAVA library in the previous life, but it just matched again in this life.
First-class companies will naturally make a lot of money by selling agreements.
"Well...it's just a name, it's not important." Zhou Zhi waved his hand and said there was no need to discuss this issue: "The key now is how our company's upgrading and transformation is going." "It's still being done. It’s a bit difficult.” Hu Lidong was pragmatic: “Our system itself has not been put into production for a long time, and everyone has just gotten used to it. Now it has been changed to the browser page access mode, and some habits cannot be changed for a while.”< br>
"This is a design issue." Zhou Zhi said: "You must pay attention to the bonus of iteration during research and development. We are not starting from scratch, but inheriting and developing it. We must fully retain the tuning experience of previous versions. ”
“From DOS to WINDOWS, the change The change is not that big, but why don’t people complain about it? Because the system has become more convenient, not more complicated, which we must pay attention to.”
“If we develop it ourselves. If we can’t make the things we use well, how can we satisfy external customers? ?”
“That’s just right.” Hu Lidong smiled and said, “Give me the notebook and I’ll install JAVA for you. When you get to Daliang Mountain, you can use the new tool to log in to our server node for research and development. Be a tester of our system.”
“Next I want to do a research project. "Graduate project." Zhou Zhi told Hu Lidong about his discussion with Mr. Gu: "In general, this system does not break away from the scope of the graph database, but the data has become sounds. I need to build an automatic voice recognition and It is converted into a recognition system for ancient Chinese pinyin characters. ”
"The initial consonants and finals of this system should be able to cover almost all dialects in our country. The light symbol system should be two or three times that of today's Chinese Pinyin. In addition, there are some phonetic methods such as diphthongs that are not included in Pinyin. In addition, there are more than ten types of tones, which are far richer than the four tones of Mandarin. ”
“As for the dialects in various regions, the differences in the combination of sounds are not too big. The biggest difference is the tone system. For example, the second tone of Shuzhong dialect is actually the third tone of Mandarin; The three tones of Shuzhong dialect are the four tones of Mandarin; and the four tones of Shuzhong dialect are the three tones of Mandarin. ”
“With this set of transliteration system, coupled with the unique vocabulary and phrases in dialects, and special applications such as Erhua pronunciation, in theory we can convert a Mandarin article through information processing Converted into Sichuan dialect"
"This is called feature collection. Our first step is to collect a wide range of features. Dialect specimens, the second step is to analyze and collect these characteristics, and the third step is to establish a more complete pinyin table than the current Chinese professional phonetic table, and establish a standard pronunciation for each mother code. "
Hu Lidong is a science-minded person, and his eyes were filled with stars when he heard this. He didn’t know what Zhou Zhi was talking about.
"In short, it is to establish a sophisticated pinyin system that can spell out all the dialects in our country."
"What is this thing used for? To reverse the trend of promoting Mandarin?"
"This is the study of the roots of the nation!"
Zhou As a liberal arts student, I often feel powerless. When it comes to liberal arts topics, many people’s first reaction is the same—this thing is not something you should eat or drink. Without it, I don’t think my life will be affected much. For example, what if I can’t recite a poem or sing a song? Aren't I still living a good life?
Compared with the immediate impact of science on changing people's lives, liberal arts often make people feel like this - are the people who do these things too full to support themselves?
