外文原文computerThe modern world of high technology could not have come about except for the development of the computer. Different types and sizes of computers find uses throughout society in the storage and handling of data, from secret governmental files to banking transactions to private household accounts. Computers have opened up a new era in manufacturing through the techniques of automation, and they have enhanced modern communication systems. They are essential tools in almost every field of research and applied technology, from constructing models of the universe to producing tomorrow’s weather reports, and technique use has in itself opened up new areas of conjecture. Database services and computer networks make available a great variety of information sources. The same advanced techniques also make the invasions of privacy and restricted information sources possible, and computer crime has become one of the many risks that society must face if it is to enjoy the benefits of modern technology.A computer is an electronic device that can receive a set of instructions, or program, and then carry out this program by performing calculations on numerical data or by compiling and correlating other forms of information. The type of computers are mainly inclusive of Microcomputer, Minicomputer, Mainframe Computer and Supercomputer, etc. Microminiaturization , the effort to compress more circuit elements into smaller and smaller chip space is becoming the major trend in computer development. Besides, researchers are trying to develop more powerful and more advanced computers.Any customers all pass the operate system to use the calculator, not direct carry on the operation to the hardware of the calculators. The operate system is a bridge that communicates the customer and calculator. Every general-purpose computer must have an operating system to run other programs. Operating systems perform basic tasks and provide a software platform. The choice of operating systems determines to a great extent of the applications. Therefore OS is very important.The operate system is in the charge of Computer resource control program to execute system software. Say in a specific way，the OS is the most basic in the calculator software system, also constituting the part most importantly, it is responsible for the management and controls the calculator system in all hardware resources and the software resources, can make of various resources matched with mutually, moderating to work with one accord, full develop its function, exaltation the efficiency of the system, still take the interface function of the customer and the calculator system at the same time, use the calculator to provide the convenience for the customer. The operate system is a huge management control procedure, including 5 management functions mostly: Progress and processing the machine manage, the homework manage, saving management, equipments management, document management. Divide the line from the function, the tiny machine operate system can is divided into the single mission operate system, single many mission operate systems of customer and many mission operate systems of multi-user of single customer. At present there are several kinds of OS on the computer which are DOS, OS/2, UNIX, XENIX, LINUX, Window2000, Netware etc.In order for a computer to perform the required task, it must be given instructions in a language that it understands. However, the computer’s own binary based language, or machine language, is difficult for humans to use. Therefore, people devised an assembly language to shorten and simplify the process. In order to make a computer more friendly to use, programmers invented high level languages, such as COBOL, FORTRAN, ASSEMBLER, PASCAL, C++, etc, which made the computers easier to use. For the time being, HTML and XML are very useful languages as well.The database is often used to describe a collection of related data that is organized into an integrated, sophisticated structure that provides different people with varied access to the same data. A database management system is an extremely complex set of software programs that controls the organization, storage and retrieval of data in a database. A successful DBMS is often characterized with the four principal features: (1)Data Security and Integrity; (2)Interactive query; (3)Interactive data Entry and Updating; (4)Data Independence. The intelligent databases are becoming more popular in that they canprovide more validation. The researches on new types of database systems are underway.计算机倘若不是伴随着计算机的发展，现代世界的高端技术不可能出现。

Author: Erbschloe, Michael, Business Applications of Java -- Research Starters Business, 2008DataBase: Research Starters - BusinessBusiness Applications of JavaThis article examines the growing use of Java technology in business applications. The history of Java is briefly reviewed along with the impact of open standards on the growth of the World Wide Web. Key components and concepts of the Java programming language are explained including the Java Virtual Machine. Examples of how Java is being used bye-commerce leaders is provided along with an explanation of how Java is used to develop data warehousing, data mining, and industrial automation applications. The concept of metadata modeling and the use of Extendable Markup Language (XML) are also explained.Keywords Application Programming Interfaces (API's); Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB); Extendable Markup Language (XML); HyperText Markup Language (HTML); HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP); Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS); Java Cryptography Architecture (JCA); Java Cryptography Extension (JCE); Java Programming Language; Java Virtual Machine (JVM); Java2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE); Metadata Business Information Systems > Business Applications of JavaOverviewOpen standards have driven the e-business revolution. Networking protocol standards, such as Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP), and the HyperText Markup Language (HTML) Web standards have enabled universal communication via the Internet and the World Wide Web. As e-business continues to develop, various computing technologies help to drive its evolution.The Java programming language and platform have emerged as major technologies for performing e-business functions. Java programming standards have enabled portability of applications and the reuse of application components across computing platforms. Sun Microsystems' Java Community Process continues to be a strong base for the growth of the Java infrastructure and language standards. This growth of open standards creates new opportunities for designers and developers of applications and services (Smith, 2001).Creation of Java TechnologyJava technology was created as a computer programming tool in a small, secret effort called "the Green Project" at Sun Microsystems in 1991. The Green Team, fully staffed at 13 people and led by James Gosling, locked themselves away in an anonymous office on Sand Hill Road in Menlo Park, cut off from all regular communications with Sun, and worked around the clock for18 months. Their initial conclusion was that at least one significant trend would be the convergence of digitally controlled consumer devices and computers. A device-independent programming language code-named "Oak" was the result.To demonstrate how this new language could power the future of digital devices, the Green Team developed an interactive, handheld home-entertainment device controller targeted at the digital cable television industry. But the idea was too far ahead of its time, and the digital cable television industry wasn't ready for the leap forward that Java technology offered them. As it turns out, the Internet was ready for Java technology, and just in time for its initial public introduction in 1995, the team was able to announce that the Netscape Navigator Internet browser would incorporate Java technology ("Learn about Java," 2007).Applications of JavaJava uses many familiar programming concepts and constructs and allows portability by providing a common interface through an external Java Virtual Machine (JVM). A virtual machine is a self-contained operating environment, created by a software layer that behaves as if it were a separate computer. Benefits of creating virtual machines include better exploitation of powerful computing resources and isolation of applications to prevent cross-corruption and improve security (Matlis, 2006).The JVM allows computing devices with limited processors or memory to handle more advanced applications by calling up software instructions inside the JVM to perform most of the work. This also reduces the size and complexity of Java applications because many of the core functions and processing instructions were built into the JVM. As a result, software developersno longer need to re-create the same application for every operating system. Java also provides security by instructing the application to interact with the virtual machine, which served as a barrier between applications and the core system, effectively protecting systems from malicious code.Among other things, Java is tailor-made for the growing Internet because it makes it easy to develop new, dynamic applications that could make the most of the Internet's power and capabilities. Java is now an open standard, meaning that no single entity controls its development and the tools for writing programs in the language are available to everyone. The power of open standards like Java is the ability to break down barriers and speed up progress.Today, you can find Java technology in networks and devices that range from the Internet and scientific supercomputers to laptops and cell phones, from Wall Street market simulators to home game players and credit cards. There are over 3 million Java developers and now there are several versions of the code. Most large corporations have in-house Java developers. In addition, the majority of key software vendors use Java in their commercial applications (Lazaridis, 2003).ApplicationsJava on the World Wide WebJava has found a place on some of the most popular websites in the world and the uses of Java continues to grow. Java applications not only provide unique user interfaces, they also help to power the backend of websites. Two e-commerce giants that everybody is probably familiar with (eBay and Amazon) have been Java pioneers on the World Wide Web.eBayFounded in 1995, eBay enables e-commerce on a local, national and international basis with an array of Web sites-including the eBay marketplaces, PayPal, Skype, and -that bring together millions of buyers and sellers every day. You can find it on eBay, even if you didn't know it existed. On a typical day, more than 100 million items are listed on eBay in tens of thousands of categories. Recent listings have included a tunnel boring machine from the Chunnel project, a cup of water that once belonged to Elvis, and the Volkswagen that Pope Benedict XVI owned before he moved up to the Popemobile. More than one hundred million items are available at any given time, from the massive to the miniature, the magical to the mundane, on eBay; the world's largest online marketplace.eBay uses Java almost everywhere. To address some security issues, eBay chose Sun Microsystems' Java System Identity Manager as the platform for revamping its identity management system. The task at hand was to provide identity management for more than 12,000 eBay employees and contractors.Now more than a thousand eBay software developers work daily with Java applications. Java's inherent portability allows eBay to move to new hardware to take advantage of new technology, packaging, or pricing, without having to rewrite Java code ("eBay drives explosive growth," 2007).Amazon (a large seller of books, CDs, and other products) has created a Web Service application that enables users to browse their product catalog and place orders. uses a Java application that searches the Amazon catalog for books whose subject matches a user-selected topic. The application displays ten books that match the chosen topic, and shows the author name, book title, list price, Amazon discount price, and the cover icon. The user may optionally view one review per displayed title and make a buying decision (Stearns & Garishakurthi, 2003).Java in Data Warehousing & MiningAlthough many companies currently benefit from data warehousing to support corporate decision making, new business intelligence approaches continue to emerge that can be powered by Java technology. Applications such as data warehousing, data mining, Enterprise Information Portals (EIP's), and Knowledge Management Systems (which can all comprise a businessintelligence application) are able to provide insight into customer retention, purchasing patterns, and even future buying behavior.These applications can not only tell what has happened but why and what may happen given certain business conditions; allowing for "what if" scenarios to be explored. As a result of this information growth, people at all levels inside the enterprise, as well as suppliers, customers, and others in the value chain, are clamoring for subsets of the vast stores of information such as billing, shipping, and inventory information, to help them make business decisions. While collecting and storing vast amounts of data is one thing, utilizing and deploying that data throughout the organization is another.The technical challenges inherent in integrating disparate data formats, platforms, and applications are significant. However, emerging standards such as the Application Programming Interfaces (API's) that comprise the Java platform, as well as Extendable Markup Language (XML) technologies can facilitate the interchange of data and the development of next generation data warehousing and business intelligence applications. While Java technology has been used extensively for client side access and to presentation layer challenges, it is rapidly emerging as a significant tool for developing scaleable server side programs. The Java2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) provides the object, transaction, and security support for building such systems.Metadata IssuesOne of the key issues that business intelligence developers must solve is that of incompatible metadata formats. Metadata can be defined as information about data or simply "data about data." In practice, metadata is what most tools, databases, applications, and other information processes use to define, relate, and manipulate data objects within their own environments. It defines the structure and meaning of data objects managed by an application so that the application knows how to process requests or jobs involving those data objects. Developers can use this schema to create views for users. Also, users can browse the schema to better understand the structure and function of the database tables before launching a query.To address the metadata issue, a group of companies (including Unisys, Oracle, IBM, SAS Institute, Hyperion, Inline Software and Sun) have joined to develop the Java Metadata Interface (JMI) API. The JMI API permits the access and manipulation of metadata in Java with standard metadata services. JMI is based on the Meta Object Facility (MOF) specification from the Object Management Group (OMG). The MOF provides a model and a set of interfaces for the creation, storage, access, and interchange of metadata and metamodels (higher-level abstractions of metadata). Metamodel and metadata interchange is done via XML and uses the XML Metadata Interchange (XMI) specification, also from the OMG. JMI leverages Java technology to create an end-to-end data warehousing and business intelligence solutions framework.Enterprise JavaBeansA key tool provided by J2EE is Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB), an architecture for the development of component-based distributed business applications. Applications written using the EJB architecture are scalable, transactional, secure, and multi-user aware. These applications may be written once and then deployed on any server platform that supports J2EE. The EJB architecture makes it easy for developers to write components, since they do not need to understand or deal with complex, system-level details such as thread management, resource pooling, and transaction and security management. This allows for role-based development where component assemblers, platform providers and application assemblers can focus on their area of responsibility further simplifying application development.EJB's in the Travel IndustryA case study from the travel industry helps to illustrate how such applications could function. A travel company amasses a great deal of information about its operations in various applications distributed throughout multiple departments. Flight, hotel, and automobile reservation information is located in a database being accessed by travel agents worldwide. Another application contains information that must be updated with credit and billing historyfrom a financial services company. Data is periodically extracted from the travel reservation system databases to spreadsheets for use in future sales and marketing analysis.Utilizing J2EE, the company could consolidate application development within an EJB container, which can run on a variety of hardware and software platforms allowing existing databases and applications to coexist with newly developed ones. EJBs can be developed to model various data sets important to the travel reservation business including information about customer, hotel, car rental agency, and other attributes.Data Storage & AccessData stored in existing applications can be accessed with specialized connectors. Integration and interoperability of these data sources is further enabled by the metadata repository that contains metamodels of the data contained in the sources, which then can be accessed and interchanged uniformly via the JMI API. These metamodels capture the essential structure and semantics of business components, allowing them to be accessed and queried via the JMI API or to be interchanged via XML. Through all of these processes, the J2EE infrastructure ensures the security and integrity of the data through transaction management and propagation and the underlying security architecture.To consolidate historical information for analysis of sales and marketing trends, a data warehouse is often the best solution. In this example, data can be extracted from the operational systems with a variety of Extract, Transform and Load tools (ETL). The metamodels allow EJBsdesigned for filtering, transformation, and consolidation of data to operate uniformly on datafrom diverse data sources as the bean is able to query the metamodel to identify and extract the pertinent fields. Queries and reports can be run against the data warehouse that contains information from numerous sources in a consistent, enterprise-wide fashion through the use of the JMI API (Mosher & Oh, 2007).Java in Industrial SettingsMany people know Java only as a tool on the World Wide Web that enables sites to perform some of their fancier functions such as interactivity and animation. However, the actual uses for Java are much more widespread. Since Java is an object-oriented language like C++, the time needed for application development is minimal. Java also encourages good software engineering practices with clear separation of interfaces and implementations as well as easy exception handling.In addition, Java's automatic memory management and lack of pointers remove some leading causes of programming errors. Most importantly, application developers do not need to create different versions of the software for different platforms. The advantages available through Java have even found their way into hardware. The emerging new Java devices are streamlined systems that exploit network servers for much of their processing power, storage, content, and administration.Benefits of JavaThe benefits of Java translate across many industries, and some are specific to the control and automation environment. For example, many plant-floor applications use relatively simple equipment; upgrading to PCs would be expensive and undesirable. Java's ability to run on any platform enables the organization to make use of the existing equipment while enhancing the application.IntegrationWith few exceptions, applications running on the factory floor were never intended to exchange information with systems in the executive office, but managers have recently discovered the need for that type of information. Before Java, that often meant bringing together data from systems written on different platforms in different languages at different times. Integration was usually done on a piecemeal basis, resulting in a system that, once it worked, was unique to the two applications it was tying together. Additional integration required developing a brand new system from scratch, raising the cost of integration.Java makes system integration relatively easy. Foxboro Controls Inc., for example, used Java to make its dynamic-performance-monitor software package Internet-ready. This software provides senior executives with strategic information about a plant's operation. The dynamic performance monitor takes data from instruments throughout the plant and performs variousmathematical and statistical calculations on them, resulting in information (usually financial) that a manager can more readily absorb and use.ScalabilityAnother benefit of Java in the industrial environment is its scalability. In a plant, embedded applications such as automated data collection and machine diagnostics provide critical data regarding production-line readiness or operation efficiency. These data form a critical ingredient for applications that examine the health of a production line or run. Users of these devices can take advantage of the benefits of Java without changing or upgrading hardware. For example, operations and maintenance personnel could carry a handheld, wireless, embedded-Java device anywhere in the plant to monitor production status or problems.Even when internal compatibility is not an issue, companies often face difficulties when suppliers with whom they share information have incompatible systems. This becomes more of a problem as supply-chain management takes on a more critical role which requires manufacturers to interact more with offshore suppliers and clients. The greatest efficiency comes when all systems can communicate with each other and share information seamlessly. Since Java is so ubiquitous, it often solves these problems (Paula, 1997).Dynamic Web Page DevelopmentJava has been used by both large and small organizations for a wide variety of applications beyond consumer oriented websites. Sandia, a multiprogram laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration, has developed a unique Java application. The lab was tasked with developing an enterprise-wide inventory tracking and equipment maintenance system that provides dynamic Web pages. The developers selected Java Studio Enterprise 7 for the project because of its Application Framework technology and Web Graphical User Interface (GUI) components, which allow the system to be indexed by an expandable catalog. The flexibility, scalability, and portability of Java helped to reduce development timeand costs (Garcia, 2004)IssueJava Security for E-Business ApplicationsTo support the expansion of their computing boundaries, businesses have deployed Web application servers (WAS). A WAS differs from a traditional Web server because it provides a more flexible foundation for dynamic transactions and objects, partly through the exploitation of Java technology. Traditional Web servers remain constrained to servicing standard HTTP requests, returning the contents of static HTML pages and images or the output from executed Common Gateway Interface (CGI ) scripts.An administrator can configure a WAS with policies based on security specifications for Java servlets and manage authentication and authorization with Java Authentication andAuthorization Service (JAAS) modules. An authentication and authorization service can bewritten in Java code or interface to an existing authentication or authorization infrastructure. Fora cryptography-based security infrastructure, the security server may exploit the Java Cryptography Architecture (JCA) and Java Cryptography Extension (JCE). To present the user with a usable interaction with the WAS environment, the Web server can readily employ a formof "single sign-on" to avoid redundant authentication requests. A single sign-on preserves user authentication across multiple HTTP requests so that the user is not prompted many times for authentication data (i.e., user ID and password).Based on the security policies, JAAS can be employed to handle the authentication process with the identity of the Java client. After successful authentication, the WAS securitycollaborator consults with the security server. The WAS environment authentication requirements can be fairly complex. In a given deployment environment, all applications or solutions may not originate from the same vendor. In addition, these applications may be running on different operating systems. Although Java is often the language of choice for portability between platforms, it needs to marry its security features with those of the containing environment.Authentication & AuthorizationAuthentication and authorization are key elements in any secure information handling system. Since the inception of Java technology, much of the authentication and authorization issues have been with respect to downloadable code running in Web browsers. In many ways, this had been the correct set of issues to address, since the client's system needs to be protected from mobile code obtained from arbitrary sites on the Internet. As Java technology moved from a client-centric Web technology to a server-side scripting and integration technology, it required additional authentication and authorization technologies.The kind of proof required for authentication may depend on the security requirements of a particular computing resource or specific enterprise security policies. To provide such flexibility, the JAAS authentication framework is based on the concept of configurable authenticators. This architecture allows system administrators to configure, or plug in, the appropriate authenticatorsto meet the security requirements of the deployed application. The JAAS architecture also allows applications to remain independent from underlying authentication mechanisms. So, as new authenticators become available or as current authentication services are updated, system administrators can easily replace authenticators without having to modify or recompile existing applications.At the end of a successful authentication, a request is associated with a user in the WAS user registry. After a successful authentication, the WAS consults security policies to determine if the user has the required permissions to complete the requested action on the servlet. This policy canbe enforced using the WAS configuration (declarative security) or by the servlet itself (programmatic security), or a combination of both.The WAS environment pulls together many different technologies to service the enterprise. Because of the heterogeneous nature of the client and server entities, Java technology is a good choice for both administrators and developers. However, to service the diverse security needs of these entities and their tasks, many Java security technologies must be used, not only at a primary level between client and server entities, but also at a secondary level, from served objects. By using a synergistic mix of the various Java security technologies, administrators and developers can make not only their Web application servers secure, but their WAS environments secure as well (Koved, 2001).ConclusionOpen standards have driven the e-business revolution. As e-business continues to develop, various computing technologies help to drive its evolution. The Java programming language and platform have emerged as major technologies for performing e-business functions. Java programming standards have enabled portability of applications and the reuse of application components.

But for Linux, this only numerous news one of. Recently, the manufacturers concerned have announced that support the news of Linux to increase day by day, users' enthusiasm to Linux runs high unprecedentedly too. Then, Linux only have operating system not free more than on earth on 7 year this piece what glamour, get the favors of such numerous important software and hardware manufacturers as the masses of users and Orac le , Informix , HP , Sybase , Corel , Intel , Netscape , Dell ,etc. , OK?1.The background of Linux and characteristicLinux is a kind of " free (Free ) software ": What is called free,mean users can obtain the procedure and source code freely , and can use them freely , including revise or copy etc.. It is a result of cybertimes, numerous technical staff finish its research and development together through Inte rnet, countless user is it test and except fault , can add user expansion function that oneself make conveniently to participate in. As the most outstanding one in free software, Linux has characteristic of the following:(1)Totally follow POSLX standard, expand the network operatingsystem of supporting all AT&T and BSD Unix characteristic. Because of inheritting Unix outstanding design philosophy , and there are clean , stalwart , high-efficient and steady kernels, their all key codes are finished by Li nus Torvalds and other outstanding programmers, without any Unix code of AT&T or Berkeley, so Linu x is not Unix, but Linux and Unix are totally compatible.(2)Real many tasks, multi-user's system, the built-in networksupports, can be with such seamless links as NetWare , Windows NT , OS/2 , Unix ,etc..

Stone Co. not long ago is it invest a huge sum of money to claim , regard Linux as platform develop a Internet/Intranet solution, regard this as the core and launch Stone's system integration business , plan to set up nationwide Linux technical support organization at the same time , take the lead to promote the freedom software application and development in China. In addition domestic computer Company , person who win of China , devoted to Linux relevant software and hardware application of system popularize too. Is it to intensification that Linux know , will have more and more enterprises accede to the ranks that Linux will be used with domestic every enterprise to believe, more software will be planted in Linux platform. Meanwhile, the domestic university should regard Linux as the original version and upgrade already existing Unix content of courses , start with analysing the source code and revising the kernel and train a large number of senior Linux talents, improve our country's own operating system. Having only really grasped the operating system, the software industry of our country could be got rid of and aped sedulously at present, the passive state led by the nose byothers, create conditions for revitalizing the software industry of our country fundamentally.中文翻译Linux—网络时代的操作系统虽然对许多人来说，以Linux作为主要的操作系统组成庞大的工作站群，完成了《泰坦尼克号》的特技制作，已经算是出尽了风头。

外文原文：Database1.1Database conceptThe database concept has evolved since the 1960s to ease increasing difficulties in designing, building, and maintaining complex information systems (typically with many concurrent end-users, and with a large amount of diverse data). It has evolved together with database management systems which enable the effective handling of databases. Though the terms database and DBMS define different entities, they are inseparable: a database's properties are determined by its supporting DBMS and vice-versa. The Oxford English dictionary cites[citation needed] a 1962 technical report as the first to use the term "data-base." With the progress in technology in the areas of processors, computer memory, computer storage and computer networks, the sizes, capabilities, and performance of databases and their respective DBMSs have grown in orders of magnitudes. For decades it has been unlikely that a complex information system can be built effectively without a proper database supported by a DBMS. The utilization of databases is now spread to such a wide degree that virtually every technology and product relies on databases and DBMSs for its development and commercialization, or even may have such embedded in it. Also, organizations and companies, from small to large, heavily depend on databases for their operations.No widely accepted exact definition exists for DBMS. However, a system needs to provide considerable functionality to qualify as a DBMS. Accordingly its supported data collection needs to meet respective usability requirements (broadly defined by the requirements below) to qualify as a database. Thus, a database and its supporting DBMS are defined here by a set of general requirements listed below. Virtually all existing mature DBMS products meet these requirements to a great extent, while less mature either meet them or converge to meet them.1.2Evolution of database and DBMS technologyThe introduction of the term database coincided with the availability of direct-access storage (disks and drums) from the mid-1960s onwards. The term represented a contrast with the tape-based systems of the past, allowing shared interactive use rather than daily batch processing.In the earliest database systems, efficiency was perhaps the primary concern, but it was already recognized that there were other important objectives. One of the key aims was to make the data independent of the logic of application programs, so that the same data could be made available to different applications.The first generation of database systems were navigational,[2] applications typically accessed data by following pointers from one record to another. The two main data models at this time were the hierarchical model, epitomized by IBM's IMS system, and the Codasyl model (Network model), implemented in a number ofproducts such as IDMS.The Relational model, first proposed in 1970 by Edgar F. Codd, departed from this tradition by insisting that applications should search for data by content, rather than by following links. This was considered necessary to allow the content of the database to evolve without constant rewriting of applications. Relational systems placed heavy demands on processing resources, and it was not until the mid 1980s that computing hardware became powerful enough to allow them to be widely deployed. By the early 1990s, however, relational systems were dominant for all large-scale data processing applications, and they remain dominant today (2012) except in niche areas. The dominant database language is the standard SQL for the Relational model, which has influenced database languages also for other data models.Because the relational model emphasizes search rather than navigation, it does not make relationships between different entities explicit in the form of pointers, but represents them rather using primary keys and foreign keys. While this is a good basis for a query language, it is less well suited as a modeling language. For this reason a different model, the Entity-relationship model which emerged shortly later (1976), gained popularity for database design.In the period since the 1970s database technology has kept pace with the increasing resources becoming available from the computing platform: notably the rapid increase in the capacity and speed (and reduction in price) of disk storage, and the increasing capacity of main memory. This has enabled ever larger databases and higher throughputs to be achieved.The rigidity of the relational model, in which all data is held in tables with a fixed structure of rows and columns, has increasingly been seen as a limitation when handling information that is richer or more varied in structure than the traditional 'ledger-book' data of corporate information systems: for example, document databases, engineering databases, multimedia databases, or databases used in the molecular sciences. Various attempts have been made to address this problem, many of them gathering under banners such as post-relational or NoSQL. Two developments of note are the Object database and the XML database. The vendors of relational databases have fought off competition from these newer models by extending the capabilities of their own products to support a wider variety of data types.1.3General-purpose DBMSA DBMS has evolved into a complex software system and its development typically requires thousands of person-years of development effort.[citation needed] Some general-purpose DBMSs, like Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, and IBM DB2, have been undergoing upgrades for thirty years or more. General-purpose DBMSs aim to satisfy as many applications as possible, which typically makes them even more complex than special-purpose databases. However, the fact that they can be used "off the shelf", as well as their amortized cost over many applications and instances, makes them an attractive alternative (Vsone-time development) whenever they meet an application's requirements.Though attractive in many cases, a general-purpose DBMS is not always the optimal solution: When certain applications are pervasive with many operating instances, each with many users, a general-purpose DBMS may introduce unnecessary overhead and too large "footprint" (too large amount of unnecessary, unutilized software code). Such applications usually justify dedicated development.Typical examples are email systems, though they need to possess certain DBMS properties: email systems are built in a way that optimizes email messages handling and managing, and do not need significant portions of a general-purpose DBMS functionality.1.4Database machines and appliancesIn the 1970s and 1980s attempts were made to build database systems with integrated hardware and software. The underlying philosophy was that such integration would provide higher performance at lower cost. Examples were IBM System/38, the early offering of Teradata, and the Britton Lee, Inc. database machine. Another approach to hardware support for database management was ICL's CAFS accelerator, a hardware disk controller with programmable search capabilities. In the long term these efforts were generally unsuccessful because specialized database machines could not keep pace with the rapid development and progress of general-purpose computers. Thus most database systems nowadays are software systems running on general-purpose hardware, using general-purpose computer data storage. However this idea is still pursued for certain applications by some companies like Netezza and Oracle (Exadata).1.5Database researchDatabase research has been an active and diverse area, with many specializations, carried out since the early days of dealing with the database concept in the 1960s. It has strong ties with database technology and DBMS products. Database research has taken place at research and development groups of companies (e.g., notably at IBM Research, who contributed technologies and ideas virtually to any DBMS existing today), research institutes, and Academia. Research has been done both through Theory and Prototypes. The interaction between research and database related product development has been very productive to the database area, and many related key concepts and technologies emerged from it. Notable are the Relational and the Entity-relationship models, the Atomic transaction concept and related Concurrency control techniques, Query languages and Query optimization methods, RAID, and more. Research has provided deep insight to virtually all aspects of databases, though not always has been pragmatic, effective (and cannot and should not always be: research is exploratory in nature, and not always leads to accepted or useful ideas). Ultimately market forces and real needs determine the selection of problem solutions and related technologies, also among those proposed by research. However, occasionally, not the best and most elegant solution wins (e.g., SQL). Along their history DBMSs and respective databases, to a great extent, have been the outcome of such research, while real product requirements and challenges triggered database research directions and sub-areas.The database research area has several notable dedicated academic journals (e.g., ACM Transactions on Database Systems-TODS, Data and Knowledge Engineering-DKE, and more) and annual conferences (e.g., ACM SIGMOD, ACM PODS, VLDB, IEEE ICDE, and more), as well as an active and quite heterogeneous (subject-wise) research community all over the world.1.6Database architectureDatabase architecture (to be distinguished from DBMS architecture; see below) may be viewed, to some extent, as an extension of Data modeling. It is used to conveniently answer requirements of different end-users from a same database, as well as for other benefits. For example, a financial department of a company needs the payment details of all employees as part of the company's expenses, but not other many details about employees, that are the interest of the human resources department. Thus different departments need different views of the company's database, that both include the employees' payments, possibly in a different level of detail (and presented in different visual forms). To meet such requirement effectively database architecture consists of three levels: external, conceptual and internal. Clearly separating the three levels was a major feature of the relational database model implementations that dominate 21st century databases.[13]The external level defines how each end-user type understands the organization of its respective relevant data in the database, i.e., the different needed end-user views.A single database can have any number of views at the external level.The conceptual level unifies the various external views into a coherent whole, global view.[13] It provides the common-denominator of all the external views. It comprises all the end-user needed generic data, i.e., all the data from which any view may be derived/computed. It is provided in the simplest possible way of such generic data, and comprises the back-bone of the database. It is out of the scope of the various database end-users, and serves database application developers and defined by database administrators that build the database.The Internal level (or Physical level) is as a matter of fact part of the database implementation inside a DBMS (see Implementation section below). It is concerned with cost, performance, scalability and other operational matters. It deals with storage layout of the conceptual level, provides supporting storage-structures like indexes, to enhance performance, and occasionally stores data of individual views (materialized views), computed from generic data, if performance justification exists for such redundancy. It balances all the external views' performance requirements, possibly conflicting, in attempt to optimize the overall database usage by all its end-uses according to the database goals and priorities.All the three levels are maintained and updated according to changing needs by database administrators who often also participate in the database design.The above three-level database architecture also relates to and being motivated by the concept of data independence which has been described for long time as a desired database property and was one of the major initial driving forces of the Relational model. In the context of the above architecture it means that changes made at a certain level do not affect definitions and software developed with higher level interfaces, and are being incorporated at the higher level automatically. For example, changes in the internal level do not affect application programs written using conceptual level interfaces, which saves substantial change work that would be needed otherwise.In summary, the conceptual is a level of indirection between internal and external. On one hand it provides a common view of the database, independent of different external view structures, and on the other hand it is uncomplicated by details of how the data is stored or managed (internal level). In principle every level, and even every external view, can be presented by a different data model. In practice usually a given DBMS uses the same data model for both the external and the conceptual levels (e.g., relational model). The internal level, which is hidden inside the DBMS and depends on its implementation (see Implementation section below), requires a different levelof detail and uses its own data structure types, typically different in nature from the structures of the external and conceptual levels which are exposed to DBMS users (e.g., the data models above): While the external and conceptual levels are focused on and serve DBMS users, the concern of the internal level is effective implementation details.中文译文：数据库1.1 数据库的概念数据库的概念已经演变自1960年以来，以缓解日益困难，在设计，建设，维护复杂的信息系统（通常与许多并发的最终用户，并用大量不同的数据）。

外文资料Database Management SystemsA database (sometimes spelled data base) is also called an electronic database , referring to any collection of data, or information, that is specially organized for rapid search and retrieval by a computer. Databases are structured to facilitate the storage, retrieval , modification, and deletion of data in conjunction with various data-processing operations .Databases can be stored on magnetic disk or tape, optical disk, or some other secondary storage device.A database consists of a file or a set of files. The information in these files may be broken down into records, each of which consists of one or more fields. Fields are the basic units of data storage , and each field typically contains information pertaining to one aspect or attribute of the entity described by the database . Using keywords and various sorting commands, users can rapidly search , rearrange, group, and select the fields in many records to retrieve or create reports on particular aggregate of data.Complex data relationships and linkages may be found in all but the simplest databases .The system software package that handles the difficult tasks associated with creating ,accessing, and maintaining database records is called a database management system(DBMS).The programs in a DBMS package establish an interface between the database itself and the users of the database.. (These users may be applications programmers, managers and others with information needs, and various OS programs.)A DBMS can organize, process, and present selected data elements form the database. This capability enables decision makers to search, probe, and query database contents in order to extract answers to nonrecurring and unplanned questions that aren’t available in regular reports. These questions might initially be vague and/or poorly defined ,but people can “browse”through the database until they have the needed information. In short, the DBMS will “manage” the stored data items and assemble the needed itemsfrom the common database in response to the queries of those who aren’t programmers.A database management system (DBMS) is composed of three major parts:(1)a storage subsystem that stores and retrieves data in files;(2) a modeling and manipulation subsystem that provides the means with which to organize the data and to add , delete, maintain, and update the data;(3)and an interface between the DBMS and its users. Several major trends are emerging that enhance the value and usefulness of database management systems;Managers: who require more up-to-data information to make effective decisionCustomers: who demand increasingly sophisticated information services and more current information about the status of their orders, invoices, and accounts.Users: who find that they can develop custom applications with database systems in a fraction of the time it takes to use traditional programming languages.Organizations : that discover information has a strategic value; they utilize their database systems to gain an edge over their competitors.The Database ModelA data model describes a way to structure and manipulate the data in a database. The structural part of the model specifies how data should be represented(such as tree, tables, and so on ).The manipulative part of the model specifies the operation with which to add, delete, display, maintain, print, search, select, sort and update the data.Hierarchical ModelThe first database management systems used a hierarchical model-that is-they arranged records into a tree structure. Some records are root records and all others have unique parent records. The structure of the tree is designed to reflect the order in which the data will be used that is ,the record at the root of a tree will be accessed first, then records one level below the root ,and so on.The hierarchical model was developed because hierarchical relationships are commonly found in business applications. As you have known, an organization char often describes a hierarchical relationship: topmanagement is at the highest level, middle management at lower levels, and operational employees at the lowest levels. Note that within a strict hierarchy, each level of management may have many employees or levels of employees beneath it, but each employee has only one manager. Hierarchical data are characterized by this one-to-many relationship among data.In the hierarchical approach, each relationship must be explicitly defined when the database is created. Each record in a hierarchical database can contain only one key field and only one relationship is allowed between any two fields. This can create a problem because data do not always conform to such a strict hierarchy.Relational ModelA major breakthrough in database research occurred in 1970 when E.F. Codd proposed a fundamentally different approach to database management called relational model ,which uses a table as its data structure.The relational database is the most widely used database structure. Data is organized into related tables. Each table is made up of rows called and columns called fields. Each record contains fields of data about some specific item. For example, in a table containing information on employees, a record would contain fields of data such as a person’s last name ,first name ,and street address.Structured query language(SQL)is a query language for manipulating data in a relational database .It is nonprocedural or declarative, in which the user need only specify an English-like description that specifies the operation and the described record or combination of records. A query optimizer translates the description into a procedure to perform the database manipulation.Network ModelThe network model creates relationships among data through a linked-list structure in which subordinate records can be linked to more than one parent record. This approach combines records with links, which are called pointers. The pointers are addresses that indicate the location of a record. With the network approach, a subordinate record can be linked to a key record and at the same time itself be a key record linked to other sets of subordinate records. The network mode historically has had a performanceadvantage over other database models. Today , such performance characteristics are only important in high-volume ,high-speed transaction processing such as automatic teller machine networks or airline reservation system.Both hierarchical and network databases are application specific. If a new application is developed ,maintaining the consistency of databases in different applications can be very difficult. For example, suppose a new pension application is developed .The data are the same, but a new database must be created.Object ModelThe newest approach to database management uses an object model , in which records are represented by entities called objects that can both store data and provide methods or procedures to perform specific tasks.The query language used for the object model is the same object-oriented programming language used to develop the database application .This can create problems because there is no simple , uniform query language such as SQL . The object model is relatively new, and only a few examples of object-oriented database exist. It has attracted attention because developers who choose an object-oriented programming language want a database based on an object-oriented model.Distributed DatabaseSimilarly , a distributed database is one in which different parts of the database reside on physically separated computers . One goal of distributed databases is the access of information without regard to where the data might be stored. Keeping in mind that once the users and their data are separated , the communication and networking concepts come into play .Distributed databases require software that resides partially in the larger computer. This software bridges the gap between personal and large computers and resolves the problems of incompatible data formats. Ideally, it would make the mainframe databases appear to be large libraries of information, with most of the processing accomplished on the personal computer.A drawback to some distributed systems is that they are often based on what is called a mainframe-entire model , in which the larger host computeris seen as the master and the terminal or personal computer is seen as a slave. There are some advantages to this approach . With databases under centralized control , many of the problems of data integrity that we mentioned earlier are solved . But today’s personal computers, departmental computers, and distributed processing require computers and their applications to communicate with each other on a more equal or peer-to-peer basis. In a database, the client/server model provides the framework for distributing databases.One way to take advantage of many connected computers running database applications is to distribute the application into cooperating parts that are independent of one anther. A client is an end user or computer program that requests resources across a network. A server is a computer running software that fulfills those requests across a network . When the resources are data in a database ,the client/server model provides the framework for distributing database.A file serve is software that provides access to files across a network. A dedicated file server is a single computer dedicated to being a file server. This is useful ,for example ,if the files are large and require fast access .In such cases, a minicomputer or mainframe would be used as a file server. A distributed file server spreads the files around on individual computers instead of placing them on one dedicated computer.Advantages of the latter server include the ability to store and retrieve files on other computers and the elimination of duplicate files on each computer. A major disadvantage , however, is that individual read/write requests are being moved across the network and problems can arise when updating files. Suppose a user requests a record from a file and changes it while another user requests the same record and changes it too. The solution to this problems called record locking, which means that the first request makes others requests wait until the first request is satisfied . Other users may be able to read the record, but they will not be able to change it .A database server is software that services requests to a database across a network. For example, suppose a user types in a query for data on his or her personal computer . If the application is designed with the client/server model in mind ,the query language part on the personal computer simplesends the query across the network to the database server and requests to be notified when the data are found.Examples of distributed database systems can be found in the engineering world. Sun’s Network Filing System(NFS),for example, is used in computer-aided engineering applications to distribute data among the hard disks in a network of Sun workstation.Distributing databases is an evolutionary step because it is logical that data should exist at the location where they are being used . Departmental computers within a large corporation ,for example, should have data reside locally , yet those data should be accessible by authorized corporate management when they want to consolidate departmental data . DBMS software will protect the security and integrity of the database , and the distributed database will appear to its users as no different from the non-distributed database .In this information age, the data server has become the heart of a company. This one piece of software controls the rhythm of most organizations and is used to pump information lifeblood through the arteries of the network. Because of the critical nature of this application, the data server is also the one of the most popular targets for hackers. If a hacker owns this application, he can cause the company's "heart" to suffer a fatal arrest.Ironically, although most users are now aware of hackers, they still do not realize how susceptible their database servers are to hack attacks. Thus, this article presents a description of the primary methods of attacking database servers (also known as SQL servers) and shows you how to protect yourself from these attacks.You should note this information is not new. Many technical white papers go into great detail about how to perform SQL attacks, and numerous vulnerabilities have been posted to security lists that describe exactly how certain database applications can be exploited. This article was written for the curious non-SQL experts who do not care to know the details, and as a review to those who do use SQL regularly.What Is a SQL Server?A database application is a program that provides clients with access todata. There are many variations of this type of application, ranging from the expensive enterprise-level Microsoft SQL Server to the free and open source mySQL. Regardless of the flavor, most database server applications have several things in common.First, database applications use the same general programming language known as SQL, or Structured Query Language. This language, also known as a fourth-level language due to its simplistic syntax, is at the core of how a client communicates its requests to the server. Using SQL in its simplest form, a programmer can select, add, update, and delete information in a database. However, SQL can also be used to create and design entire databases, perform various functions on the returned information, and even execute other programs.To illustrate how SQL can be used, the following is an example of a simple standard SQL query and a more powerful SQL query:Simple: "Select * from dbFurniture.tblChair"This returns all information in the table tblChair from the database dbFurniture.Complex: "EXEC master..xp_cmdshell 'dir c:\'"This short SQL command returns to the client the list of files and folders under the c:\ directory of the SQL server. Note that this example uses an extended stored procedure that is exclusive to MS SQL Server.The second function that database server applications share is that they all require some form of authenticated connection between client and host. Although the SQL language is fairly easy to use, at least in its basic form, any client that wants to perform queries must first provide some form of credentials that will authorize the client; the client also must define the format of the request and response.This connection is defined by several attributes, depending on the relative location of the client and what operating systems are in use. We could spend a whole article discussing various technologies such as DSN connections, DSN-less connections, RDO, ADO, and more, but these subjects are outside the scope of this article. If you want to learn more about them, a little Google'ing will provide you with more than enough information. However, the following is a list of the more common itemsincluded in a connection request.Database sourceRequest typeDatabaseUser IDPasswordBefore any connection can be made, the client must define what type of database server it is connecting to. This is handled by a software component that provides the client with the instructions needed to create the request in the correct format. In addition to the type of database, the request type can be used to further define how the client's request will be handled by the server. Next comes the database name and finally the authentication information.All the connection information is important, but by far the weakest link is the authentication information—or lack thereof. In a properly managed server, each database has its own users with specifically designated permissions that control what type of activity they can perform. For example, a user account would be set up as read only for applications that need to only access information. Another account should be used for inserts or updates, and maybe even a third account would be used for deletes. This type of account control ensures that any compromised account is limited in functionality. Unfortunately, many database programs are set up with null or easy passwords, which leads to successful hack attacks.译文数据库管理系统介绍数据库（database,有时拼作data base）又称为电子数据库，是专门组织起来的一组数据或信息，其目的是为了便于计算机快速查询及检索。

1. 磁盘今天，我们使用得最多的一种大量存储器是磁盘，在那里有薄的可以旋转的盘片，盘片上有磁介质以储存数据。

盘片的上面和（或）下面安装有读/写磁头，当盘片旋转时，每个磁头都遍历一圈，它被叫作磁道，围绕着磁盘的上下两个表面。

通过重新定位的读/写磁头，不同的同心圆磁道可以被访问。

通常，一个磁盘存储系统由若干个安装在同一根轴上的盘片组成，盘片之间有足够的距离，使得磁头可以在盘片之间滑动。

在一个磁盘中，所有的磁头是一起移动的。

因此，当磁头移动到新的位置时，新的一组磁道可以存取了。

每一组磁道称为一个柱面。

因为一个磁道能包含的信息可能比我们一次操作所需要得多，所以每个磁道划分成若干个弧区，称为扇区，记录在每个扇区上的信息是连续的二进制位串。

传统的磁盘上每个磁道分为同样数目的扇区，而每个扇区也包含同样数目的二进制位。

（所以，盘片中心的储存的二进制位的密度要比靠近盘片边缘的大）。

因此，一个磁盘存储器系统有许多个别的磁区, 每个扇区都可以作为独立的二进制位串存取，盘片表面上的磁道数目和每个磁道上的扇区数目对于不同的磁盘系统可能都不相同。

磁区大小一般是不超过几个KB; 512 个字节或1024 个字节。

Warehouse Management Systems (WMS).The evolution of warehouse management systems (WMS) is very similar to that of many other software solutions. Initially a system to control movement and storage of materials within a warehouse, the role of WMS is expanding to including light manufacturing, transportation management, order management, and complete accounting systems. To use the grandfather of operations-related software, MRP, as a comparison, material requirements planning (MRP) started as a system for planning raw material requirements in a manufacturing environment. Soon MRP evolved into manufacturing resource planning (MRPII), which took the basic MRP system and added scheduling and capacity planning logic. Eventually MRPII evolved into enterprise resource planning (ERP), incorporating all the MRPII functionality with full financials and customer and vendor management functionality. Now, whether WMS evolving into a warehouse-focused ERP system is a good thing or not is up to debate. What is clear is that the expansion of the overlap in functionality between Warehouse Management Systems, Enterprise Resource Planning, Distribution Requirements Planning, Transportation Management Systems, Supply Chain Planning, Advanced Planning and Scheduling, and Manufacturing Execution Systems will only increase the level of confusion among companies looking for software solutions for their operations.Even though WMS continues to gain added functionality, the initial core functionality of a WMS has not really changed. The primary purpose of a WMS is to control the movement and storage of materials within an operation and process the associated transactions. Directed picking, directed replenishment, and directed putaway are the key to WMS. The detailed setup and processing within a WMS can vary significantly from one software vendor to another, however the basic logic will use a combination of item, location, quantity, unit of measure, and order information to determine where to stock, where to pick, and in what sequence to perform these operations.Do You Really Need WMS?Not every warehouse needs a WMS. Certainly any warehouse could benefit from some of the functionality but is the benefit great enough to justify the initial and ongoing costs associated with WMS? Warehouse Management Systems are big, complex, data intensive, applications. They tend to require a lot of initial setup, a lot of system resources to run, and a lot of ongoing data management to continue to run. That’s right, you need to "manage" your warehouse "management" system. Often times, large operations will end up creating a new IS department with the sole responsibility of managing the WMS.The Claims:WMS will reduce inventory!WMS will reduce labor costs!WMS will increase storage capacity!WMS will increase customer service!WMS will increase !The Reality:The implementation of a WMS along with automated data collection will likely give you increases in accuracy, reduction in labor costs (provided the labor required to maintain the system is less than the labor saved on the warehouse floor), and a greater ability to service the customer by reducing cycle times. Expectations of inventory reduction and increased storage capacity are less likely. While increased accuracy and efficiencies in the receiving process may reduce the level of required, the impact of this reduction will likely be negligible in comparison to overall inventory levels. The predominant factors that control inventory levels are , lead times, and demand variability. It is unlikely that a WMS will have a significant impact on any of these factors. And while a WMS certainly provides the tools for more organized storage which may result in increased storage capacity, this improvement will be relative to just how sloppy your pre-WMS processes were.Beyond labor efficiencies, the determining factors in deciding to implement a WMS tend to be more often associated with the need to do something to service your customers that your current system does not support (or does not support well) such asfirst-in-first-out, cross-docking, automated pick replenishment, wave picking, lot tracking, yard management, automated data collection, automated material handling equipment, etc.SetupThe setup requirements of WMS can be extensive. The characteristics of each item and location must be maintained either at the detail level or by grouping similar items and locations into categories. An example of item characteristics at the detail level would include exact dimensions and weight of each item in each unit of measure the item is stocked (each, cases, pallets, etc) as well as information such as whether it can be mixed with other items in a location, whether it is rack able, max stack height, max quantity per location, hazard classifications, finished goods or raw material, fast versus slow mover, etc. Although some operations will need to set up each item this way, most operations will benefit by creating groups of similar products. For example, if you are a distributor of music CDs you would create groups for single CDs, and double CDs, maintaining the detailed dimension and weight information at the group level and only needing to attach the group code to each item. You would likely need to maintain detailed information on special items such as boxed sets or CDs in special packaging. You would also create groups for the different types of locations within your warehouse. An example would be to create three different groups (P1, P2, P3) for the three different sized forward picking locations you use for your CD picking. You then set up the quantity of single CDs that will fit in a P1, P2, and P3 location, quantity of double CDsthat fit in a P1, P2, P3 location etc. You would likely also be setting up case quantities, and pallet quantities of each CD group and quantities of cases and pallets per each reserve storage location group.If this sounds simple, it is…well… sort of. In reality most operations have a much more diverse product mix and will require much more system setup. And setting up the physical characteristics of the product and locations is only part of the picture. You have set up enough so that the system knows where a product can fit and how many will fit in that location. You now need to set up the information needed to let the system decide exactly which location to pick from, replenish from/to, and put away to, and in what sequence these events should occur (remember WMS is all about “directed” movement). You do this by assigning specific logic to the various combinations of item/order/quantity/location information that will occur.Below I have listed some of the logic used in determining actual locations and sequences.Location Sequence. This is the simplest logic; you simply define a flow through your warehouse and assign a sequence number to each location. In order picking this is used to sequence your picks to flow through the warehouse, in put away the logic would look for the first location in the sequence in which the product would fit.Zone Logic. By breaking down your storage locations into zones you can direct picking, put away, or replenishment to or from specific areas of your warehouse. Since zone logic only designates an area, you will need to combine this with some other type oflogic to determine exact location within the zone.Fixed Location. Logic uses predetermined fixed locations per item in picking, put away, and replenishment. Fixed locations are most often used as the primary picking location in piece pick and case-pick operations, however, they can also be used for secondary storage.Random Location. Since computers cannot be truly random (nor would you want them to be) the term random location is a little misleading. Random locations generally refer to areas where products are not stored in designated fixed locations. Like zone logic, you will need some additional logic to determine exact locations.First-in-first-out (FIFO).Directs picking from the oldest inventory first.Last-in-first-out (LIFO).Opposite of FIFO. I didn't think there were any real applications for this logic until a visitor to my site sent an email describing their operation that distributes perishable goods domestically and overseas. They use LIFO for their overseas customers (because of longer in-transit times) and FIFO for their domestic customers.Pick-to-clear. Logic directs picking to the locations with the smallest quantities on hand. This logic is great for space utilization.Reserved Locations. This is used when you want to predetermine specific locations to put away to or pick from. An application for reserved locations would be cross-docking, where you may specify certain quantities of an inbound shipment be moved to specific outbound staging locations or directly to an awaiting outbound trailer.Maximize Cube. Cube logic is found in most WMS systems however it is seldom used. Cube logic basically uses unit dimensions to calculate cube (cubic inches per unit) and then compares this to the cube capacity of the location to determine how much will fit. Now if the units are capable of being stacked into the location in a manner that fills every cubic inch of space in the location, cube logic will work. Since this rarely happens in the real world, cube logic tends to be impractical.Consolidate. Looks to see if there is already a location with the same product stored in it with available capacity. May also create additional moves to consolidate like product stored in multiple locations.Lot Sequence. Used for picking or replenishment, this will use the lot number or lot date to determine locations to pick from or replenish from.It’s very common to combine multiple logic methods to determine the best location. For example you may chose to use pick-to-clear logic within first-in-first-out logic when there are multiple locations with the same receipt date. You also may change the logic based upon current workload. During busy periods you may chose logic that optimizes productivity while during slower periods you switch to logic that optimizes space utilization.Other Functionality/ConsiderationsWave Picking/Batch Picking/Zone Picking. Support for various picking methods varies from one system to another. In high-volume fulfillment operations, picking logiccan be a critical factor in WMS selection. See my article on for more info on these methods.Task Interleaving. Task interleaving describes functionality that mixes dissimilar tasks such as picking and put away to obtain maximum productivity. Used primarily in full-pallet-load operations, task interleaving will direct a lift truck operator to put away a pallet on his/her way to the next pick. In large warehouses this can greatly reduce travel time, not only increasing productivity, but also reducing wear on the lift trucks and saving on energy costs by reducing lift truck fuel consumption. Task interleaving is also used with cycle counting programs to coordinate a cycle count with a picking or put away task.Integration with Automated Material Handling Equipment. If you are planning on using automated material handling equipment such as carousels, ASRS units, AGNS, pick-to-light systems, or separation systems, you’ll want to consider this during the software selection process. Since these types of automation are very expensive and are usually a core component of your warehouse, you may find that the equipment will drive the selection of the WMS. As with automated data collection, you should be working closely with the equipment manufacturers during the software selection process.Advanced Shipment Notifications (ASN). If your vendors are capable of sending advanced shipment notifications (preferably electronically) and attaching compliance labels to the shipments you will want to make sure that the WMS can use this toautomate your receiving process. In addition, if you have requirements to provide ASNs for customers, you will also want to verify this functionality.Yard Management. Yard management describes the function of managing the contents (inventory) of trailers parked outside the warehouse, or the empty trailers themselves. Yard management is generally associated with cross docking operations and may include the management of both inbound and outbound trailers.Labor Tracking/Capacity Planning. Some WMS systems provide functionality related to labor reporting and capacity planning. Anyone that has worked in manufacturing should be familiar with this type of logic. Basically, you set up standard labor hours and machine (usually lift trucks) hours per task and set the available labor and machine hours per shift. The WMS system will use this info to determine capacity and load. Manufacturing has been using capacity planning for decades with mixed results. The need to factor in efficiency and utilization to determine rated capacity is an example of the shortcomings of this process. Not that I’m necessarily against capacity planning in warehousing, I just think most operations don’t really need it and can avoid the disappointment of trying to make it work. I am, however, a big advocate of labor tracking for individual productivity measurement. Most WMS maintain enough data to create productivity reporting. Since productivity is measured differently from one operation to another you can assume you will have to do some minor modifications here (usually in the form of ).Integration with existing accounting/ERP systems. Unless the WMS vendor has already created a specific interface with your accounting/ERP system (such as those provided by an approved business partner) you can expect to spend some significant programming dollars here. While we are all hoping that integration issues will be magically resolved someday by a standardized interface, we isn’t there yet. Ideally you’ll want an integrator that has already integrated the WMS you chose with the business software you are using. Since this is not always possible you at least want an integrator that is very familiar with one of the systems.WMS + everything else = ? As I mentioned at the beginning of this article, a lot of other modules are being added to WMS packages. These would include full financials, light manufacturing, transportation management, purchasing, and sales order management. I don’t see this as a un ilateral move of WMS from an add-on module to a core system, but rather an optional approach that has applications in specific industries such as 3PLs. Using ERP systems as a point of reference, it is unlikely that this add-on functionality will match the functionality of best-of-breed applications available separately. If warehousing/distribution is your core business function and you don’t want to have to deal with the integration issues of incorporating separate financials, order processing, etc. you may find these WMS based business systems are a good fit.Implementation TipsOutside of the standard “don’t underestimate”, “thoroughly test”, “train, train, train” implementation tips that apply to any business software installation ,it’s important t o emphasize that WMS are very data dependent and restrictive by design. That is, you need to have all of the various data elements in place for the system to function properly. And, when they are in place, you must operate within the set parameters.When implementing a WMS, you are adding an additional layer of technology onto your system. And with each layer of technology there is additional overhead and additional sources of potential problems. Now don’t take this as a condemnation of Warehouse Management Systems. Coming from a warehousing background I definitely appreciate the functionality WMS have to offer, and, in many warehouses, this functionality is essential to their ability to serve their customers and remain competitive. It’s just important t o note that every solution has its downsides and having a good understanding of the potential implications will allow managers to make better decisions related to the levels of technology that best suits their unique environment.仓库管理系统（WMS ）仓库管理系统（WMS ）的演变与许多其他软件解决方案是超级相似的。

The object of the project was to create a means of communications between long distance points, in the event of a nation wide emergency or, more specifically, nuclear war. The project was called ARPAnet, and it is what the Internet started as. Funded specifically for military communication, the engineers responsible for ARPANet had no idea of the possibilities of an "Internet."By definition, an 'Internet' is four or more computers connected by a network.ARPAnet achieved its network by using a protocol called TCP/IP. The basics around this protocol was that if information sent over a network failed to get through on one route, it would find another route to work with, as well as establishing a means for one computer to "talk" to another computer, regardless of whether it was a PC or a Macintosh.By the 80's ARPAnet, just years away from becoming the more well known Internet, had 200 computers. The Defense Department, satisfied with ARPAnets results, decided to fully adopt it into service, and connected many military computers and resources into the network. ARPAnet then had 562 computers on its network. By the year 1984, it had over 1000 computers on its network.In 1986 ARPAnet (supposedly) shut down, but only the organization shut down, and the existing networks still existed between the more than 1000 computers. It shut down due to a failied link up with NSF, who wanted to connect its 5 countywide super computers into ARPAnet.With the funding of NSF, new high speed lines were successfully installed at line speeds of 56k (a normal modem nowadays) through telephone lines in 1988. By that time, there were 28,174 computers on the (by then decided) Internet. In 1989 there were 80,000 computers on it. By 1989, there were290,000.Another network was built to support the incredible number of people joining. It was constructed in 1992.Today - The InternetToday, the Internet has become one of the most important technological advancements in the history of humanity. Everyone wants to get 'on line' to experience the wealth of information of the Internet. Millions of people now use the Internet, and it's predicted that by the year 2003 every single person on the planet will have Internet access. The Internet has truly become a way of life in our time and era, and is evolving so quickly its hard to determine where it will go next, as computer and network technology improve every day.HOW IT WORKS:It's a standard thing. People using the Internet. Shopping, playing games,conversing in virtual Internet environments.The Internet is not a 'thing' itself. The Internet cannot just "crash." It functions the same way as the telephone system, only there is no Internet company that runs the Internet.The Internet is a collection of millioins of computers that are all connected to each other, or have the means to connect to each other. The Internet is just like an office network, only it has millions of computers connected to it.The main thing about how the Internet works is communication. How does a computer in Houston know how to access data on a computer in Tokyo to view a webpage?Internet communication, communication among computers connected to the Internet, is based on a language. This language is called TCP/IP. TCP/IP establishes a language for a computer to access and transmit data over the Internet system.But TCP/IP assumes that there is a physical connecetion between onecomputer and another. This is not usually the case. There would have to be a network wire that went to every computer connected to the Internet, but that would make the Internet impossible to access.The physical connection that is requireed is established by way of modems,phonelines, and other modem cable connections (like cable modems or DSL). Modems on computers read and transmit data over established lines,which could be phonelines or data lines. The actual hard core connections are established among computers called routers.A router is a computer that serves as a traffic controller for information.To explain this better, let's look at how a standard computer might viewa webpage.1. The user's computer dials into an Internet Service Provider (ISP). The ISP might in turn be connected to another ISP, or a straight connection into the Internet backbone.2. The user launches a web browser like Netscape or Internet Explorer and types in an internet location to go to.3. Here's where the tricky part comes in. First, the computer sends data about it's data request to a router. A router is a very high speed powerful computer running special software. The collection of routers in the world make what is called a "backbone," on which all the data on the Internet is transferred. The backbone presently operates at a speed of several gigabytes per-second. Such a speed compared to a normal modem is like comparing the heat of the sun to the heat of an ice-cube.Routers handle data that is going back and forth. A router puts small chunks of data into packages called packets, which function similarly to envelopes. So, when the request for the webpage goes through, it uses TCP/IP protocols to tell the router what to do with the data, where it's going, and overall where the user wants to go.4. The router sends these packets to other routers, eventually leadingto the target computer. It's like whisper down the lane (only the information remains intact).5. When the information reaches the target web server, the webserver then begins to send the web page back. A webserver is the computer where the webpage is stored that is running a program that handles requests for the webpage and sends the webpage to whoever wants to see it.6. The webpage is put in packets, sent through routers, and arrive at the users computer where the user can view the webpage once it is assembled.The packets which contain the data also contain special information that lets routers and other computers know how to reassemble the data in the right order.With millions of web pages, and millions of users, using the Internet is not always easy for a beginning user, especially for someone who is not entirely comfortale with using computers. Below you can find tips tricks and help on how to use main services of the Internet.Before you access webpages, you must have a web browser to actually be able to view the webpages. Most Internet Access Providers provide you with a web browser in the software they usually give to customers; you. The fact that you are viewing this page means that you have a web browser. The top two use browsers are Netscape Communicator and Microsoft Internet Explorer. Netscape can be found at /doc/bedc387343323968011c9268.html and MSIE can be found at /doc/bedc387343323968011c9268.html /ie.The fact that you're reading this right now means that you have a web browser.Next you must be familiar with actually using webpages. A webpage is a collection of hyperlinks, images, text, forms, menus, and multimedia. To "navigate" a webpage, simply click the links it provides or follow it's own instructions (like if it has a form you need to use, it will probably instruct you how to use it). Basically, everything about a webpage is made to be self-explanetory. That is the nature of a webpage, to be easily navigatable."Oh no! a 404 error! 'Cannot find web page?'" is a common remark made by new web-users.Sometimes websites have errors. But an error on a website is not the user's fault, of course.A 404 error means that the page you tried to go to does not exist. This could be because the site is still being constructed and the page hasn't been created yet, or because the site author made a typo in the page. There's nothing much to do about a 404 error except for e-mailing the site administrator (of the page you wanted to go to) an telling him/her about the error.A Javascript error is the result of a programming error in the Javascript code of a website. Not all websites utilize Javascript, but many do. Javascript is different from Java, and most browsers now support Javascript. If you are using an old version of a web browser (Netscape 3.0 for example), you might get Javascript errors because sites utilize Javascript versions that your browser does not support. So, you can try getting a newer version of your web browser.E-mail stands for Electronic Mail, and that's what it is. E-mail enables people to send letters, and even files and pictures to each other.To use e-mail, you must have an e-mail client, which is just like a personal post office, since it retrieves and stores e-mail. Secondly, you must have an e-mail account. Most Internet Service Providers provide free e-mail account(s) for free. Some services offer free e-mail, like Hotmail, and Geocities.After configuring your e-mail client with your POP3 and SMTP server address (your e-mail provider will give you that information), you are ready to receive mail.An attachment is a file sent in a letter. If someone sends you an attachment and you don't know who it is, don't run the file, ever. It could be a virus or some other kind of nasty programs. You can't get a virus justby reading e-mail, you'll have to physically execute some form of program for a virus to strike.A signature is a feature of many e-mail programs. A signature is added to the end of every e-mail you send out. You can put a text graphic, your business information, anything you want.Imagine that a computer on the Internet is an island in the sea. The sea is filled with millions of islands. This is the Internet. Imagine an island communicates with other island by sending ships to other islands and receiving ships. The island has ports to accept and send out ships.A computer on the Internet has access nodes called ports. A port is just a symbolic object that allows the computer to operate on a network (or the Internet). This method is similar to the island/ocean symbolism above.Telnet refers to accessing ports on a server directly with a text connection. Almost every kind of Internet function, like accessing web pages,"chatting," and e-mailing is done over a Telnet connection.Telnetting requires a Telnet client. A telnet program comes with the Windows system, so Windows users can access telnet by typing in "telnet" (without the "'s) in the run dialog. Linux has it built into the command line; telnet. A popular telnet program for Macintosh is NCSA telnet.Any server software (web page daemon, chat daemon) can be accessed via telnet, although they are not usually meant to be accessed in such a manner. For instance, it is possible to connect directly to a mail server and check your mail by interfacing with the e-mail server software, but it's easier to use an e-mail client (of course).There are millions of WebPages that come from all over the world, yet how will you know what the address of a page you want is?Search engines save the day. A search engine is a very large website that allows you to search it's own database of websites. For instance, if you wanted to find a website on dogs, you'd search for "dog" or "dogs" or "dog information." Here are a few search-engines.1. Altavista (/doc/bedc387343323968011c9268.html ) - Web spider & Indexed2. Yahoo (/doc/bedc387343323968011c9268.html ) - Web spider & Indexed Collection3. Excite (/doc/bedc387343323968011c9268.html ) - Web spider & Indexed4. Lycos (/doc/bedc387343323968011c9268.html ) - Web spider & Indexed5. Metasearch (/doc/bedc387343323968011c9268.html ) - Multiple searchA web spider is a program used by search engines that goes from page to page, following any link it can possibly find. This means that a search engine can literally map out as much of the Internet as it's own time and speed allows for.An indexed collection uses hand-added links. For instance, on Yahoo's site. You can click on Computers & the Internet. Then you can click on Hardware. Then you can click on Modems, etc., and along the way through sections, there are sites available which relate to what section you're in.Metasearch searches many search engines at the same time, finding the top choices from about 10 search engines, making searching a lot more effective.Once you are able to use search engines, you can effectively find the pages you want.With the arrival of networking and multi user systems, security has always been on the mind of system developers and system operators. Since the dawn of AT&T and its phone network, hackers have been known by many, hackers who find ways all the time of breaking into systems. It used to not be that big of a problem, since networking was limited to big corporate companies or government computers who could afford the necessary computer security.The biggest problem now-a-days is personal information. Why should you be careful while making purchases via a website? Let's look at how the internet works, quickly.The user is transferring credit card information to a webpage. Looks safe, right? Not necessarily. As the user submits the information, it is being streamed through a series of computers that make up the Internet backbone.The information is in little chunks, in packages called packets. Here's the problem: While the information is being transferred through this big backbone, what is preventing a "hacker" from intercepting this data stream at one of the backbone points?Big-brother is not watching you if you access a web site, but users should be aware of potential threats while transmitting private information. There are methods of enforcing security, like password protection, an most importantly, encryption.Encryption means scrambling data into a code that can only be unscrambled on the "other end." Browser's like Netscape Communicator and Internet Explorer feature encryption support for making on-line transfers. Some encryptions work better than others. The most advanced encryption system is called DES (Data Encryption Standard), and it was adopted by the US Defense Department because it was deemed so difficult to 'crack' that they considered it a security risk if it would fall into another countries hands.A DES uses a single key of information to unlock an entire document. The problem is, there are 75 trillion possible keys to use, so it is a highly difficult system to break. One document was cracked and decoded, but it was a combined effort of14,000 computers networked over the Internet that took a while to do it, so most hackers don't have that many resources available.附件2：外⽂资料翻译译⽂Internet的历史起源——ARPAnetInternet是被美国政府作为⼀项⼯程进⾏开发的。

中文翻译：1 什么是 FlashFlash 是一种创作工具，设计人员和开发人员可使用它来创建演示文稿、应用程序和其它允许用户交互的内容。

Flash 可以包含简单的动画、视频内容、复杂演示文稿和应用程序以及介于它们之间的任何内容。

通常，使用 Flash 创作的各个内容单元称为应用程序，即使它们可能只是很简单的动画。

您可以通过添加图片、声音、视频和特殊效果，构建包含丰富媒体的 Flash 应用程序。

Flash 特别适用于创建通过 Internet 提供的内容，因为它的文件非常小。

Flash 是通过广泛使用矢量图形做到这一点的。

与位图图形相比，矢量图形需要的内存和存储空间小很多，因为它们是以数学公式而不是大型数据集来表示的。

位图图形之所以更大，是因为图像中的每个像素都需要一组单独的数据来表示。

要在 Flash 中构建应用程序，可以使用 Flash 绘图工具创建图形，并将其它媒体元素导入 Flash 文档。

接下来，定义如何以及何时使用各个元素来创建设想中的应用程序。

在 Flash 中创作内容时，需要在 Flash 文档文件中工作。

Flash 文档的文件扩展名为 .fla (FLA)。

Flash 文档有四个主要部分：舞台是在回放过程中显示图形、视频、按钮等内容的位置。

时间轴用来通知 Flash 显示图形和其它项目元素的时间，也可以使用时间轴指定舞台上各图形的分层顺序。

The framework is designed to streamline the full development cycle, from building, to deploying, to maintaining applications over time” -The Apache Software Foundation.4.1简介Struts是Apache的一个应用于Java Web的网络编程的开源框架。

Struts框架的创造者和发起者是McClanahan。

后来在2002年，Struts框架由Apache软件基金会收购和接管。

Struts 提供给程序员一个易于组织基于JSP和Servlet的HTML格式和Java代码的框架。

Struts1几乎能与所有标准的Java技术和Jakarta配置包协同工作。

然而,随着需求的不断增长，Struts1在网络应用程序暴露出来许多问题,所以为了满足需求，导致Strut2推出,Strut2能更好地为开发者提供服务,如 Ajax、高效开发和可扩展性。

4.1.1 Struts 2的起源自从2000年Apache Struts的发起,Struts框架取得了非常大的成功,被大多数标准所接纳,得到了很大的发展,如果不是这样,哪里会有今天java web程序的成绩。

它的历史,告诉我们Struts是怎样组织JSP和/ Servlets，而提供了固定的框架。

Struts融入server-generated HTML与Javascript,客户端验证,也使得开发比较容易和维护。

随着时间推进的和客户对web 需求扩大,网站应用程序取得硕果累累,Struts1太老了，开始在越来越多的网站前端开发者视野中淡去。

计算机类毕业外文翻译The Phase to Develop the systemWith the society's development, the personal relationship is day by day intense. How enhances the personal relationship, reduces the management cost, the enhancement service level and pensonal competitive ability, is every one superintendent most matter of concern. More and more superintendents thought the implementation computer scientific style management solves this question.Management information systems (MIS), are information systems, typically computer based, that are used within an organization. World net described an information system as‖ a system consisting of the network of all communication channels used with an organization‖.Generally speaking, MIS involved the following parts:1 Conduct a Preliminary Investigation（1）What is the objective of the first phase of the SDLC?Attention: SDLC means Systems Development Life Cycle.The objectives of phase 1, preliminary investigation, are to conduct a preliminary analysis, propose alternative solutions, describe the costs and benefits of each solution, and submit a preliminary plan with recommendations. The problems are briefly identified and a few solutions are suggested. This phase is often called a feasibility study.（2）Conduct the preliminary analysisIn this step, you need to find out what the organization’s objectives are and to explore the nature and scope of the problems under study.Determine the organization’s objectives: Even if a problem pertains to only a small segment of the organization, you cannot study it in isolation. You need to find out what the overall objectives of the organization are and how groups and departments with in the organization interact. Then you need to examine the problem in that context.Determine the nature and scope of the problems: you may already have a sense of the nature and scope of a problem. However, with a fuller understanding of the goals of the organization, you can now take a closer look at the specifics. Is too much time being wasted on paperwork? On waiting for materials? On nonessential tasks? How pervasive is the problem within the organization? Outside of it? What people are most affected? And so on. Your reading and your interviews should give you a sense of the character of the problem.（3）Propose alternative solutionsIn delving into the organization’s objectives and the specific problems, you may have already discovered some solutions. Other possible solutions may be generated by interviewing people inside the organization, clients or customers, suppliers, and consultants and by studying what competitors are doing. With this data, you then have three choices. You can leave the system as is, improve it, or develop a new system.Leave the system as is: often, especially with paper-based or no technological systems, the problem really isn’t bad enough to justify the measures and expenditures required to get rid of it.Improve the system: sometimes changing a few key elements in the system upgrading to a new computer or new software, or doing a bit of employee retraining, for example will do the trick. Modifications might be introduced over several months, if the problem is no serious.Develop a new system: if the existing system is truly harmful to the organization, radical changes may be warranted. A new system would not mean just tinkering around the edges or introducing some new piece of hardware or software. It could mean changes in every part and at every level.（4）Describe costs and benefitsWhichever of the three alternatives is chose, it will have costs and benefits. In this step, you need to indicate what these are.The changes or absence of changes will have a price tag, of course, and you need to indicate what it is. Greater costs may result in greater benefits, which, in turn, may offer savings. The benefits may be both tangible—such as costly savings –and intangible—such as worker satisfaction. A process may be speeded up, streamlined through the elimination of unnecessary steps, or combined with other processes. Input errors or redundant output may be reduced. Systems and subsystems may be better integrated. Users may be happier with the system. Customers or suppliers may interact more efficiently with the system. Security may be improved. Costs may be cut.（5）Submit a preliminary planNow you need to wrap up all your findings in a written report, submitted to the executives(probably top managers) who are in a position to decide in which direction to proceed—make no changes, change a little, or change a lot—and how much money to allow the project. You should describe the potential solutions, costs, and benefits and indicate your recommendations. If management approves the feasibility study, then the systems analysis phase can begin.2 Do a Detailed Analysis of the System（1）What tools are used in the second phase of the SDLC to analyze data?The objectives of phase 2, systems analysis, are to gather data, analyze the data, and write a report. The present system is studied in depth, and new requirements are specified. Systems analysis describes what a system is already doing and what it should do to meet the needs of users. Systems design—the next phase—specifies how the system will accommodate the objective.In this second phase of the SDLC, you will follow the course prescribed by management on the basis of your phase/feasibility report. We are assuming what you have been directed to perform phase 2—to do a careful analysis of the existing system, in order to understand how the new system you propose would differ. This analysis will also consider how people’s positions and tasks will have to change if the new system is put into effect. In general, it involves a detailed study of: The information needs of the organization and all users;The actives, resources, and products or any present information systems;The information systems capabilities required to need the established information needs and user needs.（2）Gather dataIn gathering data, systems analysts use a handful of tools. Most of them not tem ply technical. They include written documents, interviews, questionnaires, observation, and sampling.Written documents: a great deal of what you need is probably available in the form of written documents, and so on. Documents are a good place to start because they tell you how things are or are supposed to be. These tools will also provide leads on people and areas to pursuer further.Interviews: interviews with managers, workers, clients, suppliers, and competitors will also give you insights. Interviews may be structured or unstructured.Questionnaires: questionnaires are useful for getting information for large groups of people when you can’t get around to interviewing everyone. Questionnaires may also yield more information if respondents can be anonymous. In addition, this tool is convenient, is inexpensive, and yields a lot of data. However, people may not return their forms, results can be ambiguous, and with anonymous questionnaires you’ll have no opportunity to follow up.Observation: no doubt you’ve sat in a coffee shop or on a park bench and just alone ―a person is watching‖. This can be a tool for analysis, too. Through observation you can see how people interact with one another and how paper moves through an organization. Observation can be non-participant or participant. If you are a non-participant observer, and people knew they are a participant observer, you may gain more insights by experiencing the conflicts and responsibilities of the people you are working with.（3）Analyze the dataOnce the data is gathered, you need to come to grips with it and analyze it. Many analytical tools, or modeling tools, are available. Modeling tools enables a systems analyst to present graphic representations of a system. Examples are CASE tools,data flow diagrams, systems flow charts, connectivity diagrams, grid charts, decision tables, and object-oriented analysis.For example, in analyzing the current system and preparing data flow diagrams, the systems analyst must also prepare a data dictionary, which is then used and expanded during all remaining phases of the SDLC. A data dictionary defines all the elements that make up the data flow. Among other things, it records what each data element is by name, how long it is, are where it is used, as well as any numerical values assigned to it. This information is usually entered into a data dictionary software program.The Phase: Design the System（4）At the conclusions of the third phase of the SDLC, what should have been created?The objectives of phase 3, systems design, are to do a preliminary design and then a detail and to write a report. In this third phase of the SDLC, you will essentially create a rough draft and then a detail draft of the proposed information system.（5）Do a preliminary designA preliminary design describes the general foundational capabilities of proposed information system. It reviews the system requirements and then considers major components of the system. Usually several alternative systems are considered, and the costs and the benefits of each are evaluated.Some tools that may be used in the preliminary design an the detail design are following:CASE tools: they are software programs that automate various activities of the SDLC in several phases. This screen is from one of their banking system tools. It shows a model for an A TM transaction. The purchaser of the CASE tool would enter details relative to the particular situation. This technology is intended to speed up to the process of developing systems and to improve the quality of the resulting systems.Project management software: it consists of programs used to plan, schedule, a control the people, costs, and resources required to complete a project on time.3 A detail designA detail design describes how a proposed information system will deliver the general capabilities in the preliminary design. The detail design usually considers the following parts of the system, in this order: output requirements, and system controls and backup.(1) Output requirements: the first thing to determine is what you want the system to produce. In this first step, the systems analyst determines what media the appearance or format of the output, such as headings, columns, and menus.(2) Input requirements: once you know the output, you can determine the inputs, here, too, you must define the type of input, such as keyboard or source data entry. You must determine in what form data will be input and how it will be checked for accuracy. You also need to figure out what volume of data the system can be allowed to take in.(3) Storage requirements: using the data dictionary as a quite, you need to define the files and databases in the information system. How will the files be organized? What kind of storage devices will be used? How will they interface with other storage devices inside and outside of the organization? What will be the volume of database activity?(4) Processing and networking requirements, what kind of computer or computers will be used to handle the processing? What kind of operating system and applications software will be used? Will the computer or computers be tied to others in a network? Exactly what operations will be performed on the input data to achieve the desired output information? What kinds of user interface are desired?(5) System controls backup: finally, you need to think about matters of security, privacy, and data accuracy. You need to prevent unauthorized users from breaking into the system, for example, and snooping in private files. You need to devise auditing procedures and to set up specifications for testing the new system. Finally, you need to institute automatic ways of backing up information and storing it else where in case the system fails or is destroyed.4 Develop/Acquire the System（1）What general tasks do systems analysts perform in the fourth phase of the SDLC?Systems development/acquisition, the systems analysts or others in the organization acquire the software, acquire thehardware, and then test the system. This phase begins once management has accepted the report containing the design and has‖green lighted‖the way to development. Depending on the size of the project, this phase will probably involve substantial expenditures of money and time. However, at the end you should have a workable system.（2）Acquire softwareDuring the design stage, the systems analyst may have had to address what is called the ―make-or-buy‖ decision; if not, that decision certainly cannot be avoided now. In the make-or-buy decision, you decide whether you have to create a program –have it custom-written—or buy it. Sometimes programmers decide they can buy an existing software package and modify it rather than write it from scratch.If you decide to create a new program, then the question is whether to use the organization’s own staff programmers or to hair outside contract programmers. Whichever way you go, the task could take months.（3）Acquire hardwareOnce the software has been chosen, the hardware to run it must be acquired or upgraded. It’s possible you will not need to obtain any new hardware. It’s also possible that the new hardware will cost millions of dollars and involve many items: models, and many other devices. The organization may prefer to lease rather than buy some equipment, especially since chip capability was traditionally doubled about every 18 months.（4）Test the systemWith the software and hardware acquired, you can now start testing the system in two stages: first unit testing and then system testing. If CASE tools have been used throughout the SDLC, testing is minimized because any automatically generated program code is more likely to be error free.5 Implement the System（1）What tasks are typically performed in the fifth phase of the SDLC?Whether the new information system involves a few handheld computers, and elaborate telecommunications network, or expensive mainframes, phase 5,systems implementation, with involve some close coordination to make the system not just workable but successful, and people are tainted to use it.6 Maintain the System（1）What two tools are often used in the maintenance phase of the SDLC?Phase 6, systems maintain, adjusts and improves the system by having system audits and periodic evaluations and by making changes based on new conditions.Even with the conversion accomplished and the users trained, the system won’t just run itself.

计算机专业外文翻译毕业设计英文翻译作者：XXXThe Delphi Programming LanguageThe Delphi development environment is based on an object-oriented extension of thePascal programming language known as Object Pascal. Most modern programming languagessupport object-oriented programming (OOP). OOP languages are based on three fundamentalconcepts: encapsulation (usually implemented with classes), inheritance, and polymorphism(or late binding).1Classes and ObjectsDelphi is based on OOP concepts, and in particular on the definition of new class types.The use of OOP is partially enforced by the visual development environment, because forevery new form defined at design time, Delphi automatically defines a new class. In addition,every component visually placed on a form is an object of a class type available in or added tothe system library.As in most other modern OOP languages (including Java and C#), in Delphi a class-typevariable doesn't provide the storage for the object, but is only a pointer or reference to theobject in memory. Before you use the object, you must allocate memory for it by creating anew instance or by assigning an existing instance to the variable: varObj1, Obj2: TMyClass;begin // assign a newly created objectObj1 := TMyClass.Create; // assign to an existing objectObj2 := ExistingObject;The call to Create invokes a default constructor available for every class, unless the classredefines it (as described later). To declare a new class data type in Delphi, with some localdata fields and some methods, use the following syntax:typeTDate = classMonth, Day, Year: Integer;procedure SetValue (m, d, y: Integer);function LeapYear: Boolean;第 1 页共 13 页毕业设计英文翻译作者：XXXend;2Creating Components DynamicallyTo emphasize the fact that Delphi components aren't much different from other objects(and also to demonstrate the use of the Self keyword), I've written the CreateComps example.This program has a form with no components and a handler for its OnMouseDown event,which I've chosen because it receives as a parameter the position of the mouse click (unlikethe OnClick event). I need this information to create a button component in that position. Hereis the method's code:procedure TForm1.FormMouseDown (Sender: TObject;Button: TMouseButton; Shift: TShiftState; X, Y: Integer);Var Btn: TButton;beginBtn := TButton.Create (Self);Btn.Parent := Self;Btn.Left := X;Btn.Top := Y;Btn.Width := Btn.Width + 50;Btn.Caption := Format ('Button at %d, %d', [X, Y]);end;The effect of this code is to create buttons at mouse-click positions, as you can see in thefollowing figure. In the code, notice in particular the use of the Self keyword as both theparameter of the Create method (to specify the component's owner) and the value of theParent property.（The output of theexample,which creates Button components at run time第 2 页共 13 页毕业设计英文翻译作者：XXX3EncapsulationThe concept of encapsulation is often indicated by the idea of a "black box." You don'tknow about the internals: You only know how to interface with the black box or use itregardless of its internal structure. The "how to use" portion,called the class interface, allowsother parts of a program to access and use the objects of that class. However, when you usethe objects, most of their code is hidden. You seldom know what internal data the object has,and you usually have no way to access the data directly. Of course, you are supposed to usemethods to access the data, which is shielded from unauthorized access. This is theobject-oriented approach to a classical programming concept known as information hiding.However, in Delphi there is the extra level of hiding, through properties,4PrivateProtectedand PublicFor class-based encapsulation, the Delphi language has three access specifiers: private,protected, and public. A fourth, published, controls run-time type information (RTTI) anddesign-time information, but it gives the same programmatic accessibility as public. Here arethe three classic access specifiers:, The private directive denotes fields and methods of a class thatare not accessible outsidethe unit that declares the class., The protected directive is used to indicate methods and fields with limited visibility. Onlythe current class and its inherited classes can access protected elements. More precisely,only the class, subclasses, and any code in the same unit as the class can access protectedmembers。

外文资料Network management software products to buyThe current market network management software can also be classified by function as follows: network element management, network management, application-layer management of the three levels, including network element management is the most basic. Now, different manufacturers have launched their own network management software, then how to choose a network management system?1.As the center of business, management needs to graspThe most fundamental one, we must know the type of network equipment, the network is organized. Therefore, we must first list all the network management needs, which are desired and what is not wanted. Through the demand for tables, we can clearly know what the functional needs in the end. After all, spend a high price does not need to buy their own service is a waste.In general, the specific needs are: to the administrator of the traffic report on the status of servers, routers, traffic on the network overload or bottleneck; through policy-based network management to initiate action, such as to stop the process to restart and so on; It should also be able to sound the alarm to the relevant personnel, such as by e-mail or pager, etc.; can provide a convenient and powerful way to show that the affected business processes, business units or even individuals.2.Application software and services for the provision of environmentalSLA (Service Level Agreement) is a response to the current services as an important indicator of the situation, and gradually as the important characteristics of network management products to look at. Therefore, a deep understanding of network management products in this important indicator of great significance to help enterprises to measure the level and degree of matching between the need to in order to make it for reporting, trend analysis and capacity planning.3.Scalability, ease of use and integration of the combinedNetwork equipment, fault type, and network management practice is a typical problem. Therefore, paragraph 3 to integrate the function of side products is very important, because most manufacturers have to rely on the No. 3 vendor to provide some added to the system so that they become more complete. Thus, scalability has become the user to choose network management solutions, an important criterion. In addition, consider the convenience of management, a number of useful network management tools must also be taken into account in order to improve the efficiency of network management.It is worth mentioning that, a great number of network management products to provide trial versions, we can try to put forward a number of enterprise applications, and only experienced the scalable, easy to use, the characteristics of a high level of integration, the product can be targeted stereotypes.4.Standards and protocols to support the independence ofSNMP standard is now mature, and produce all their products available. Truly comprehensive network management solution should support the existing and even new standards, to incorporate them into their architecture. Not only to support SNMP, but also support DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) and DNS, DMI(Desktop Management) and CIM (public information management). In this way, regardless of the network administrator to choose what kind of future technology or equipment, the solution can monitor and manage the entire network. Therefore, the real corporate network management solution should support all network protocols, should be able to all types of hardware and operating systems, not just some kind of close to a vendor or operating system.网管软件产品的选购目前市场销售的网络管理软件也可以按功能划分为：网元管理、网络层管理、应用层管理三个层次，其中网元管理是最基础的。

计算机英汉翻译外文原文Introduction to Javaautor：Martin Ngobye.source：Computing Static Slice for Java ProgramsJava is designed to meet the challenges of application development in the context of heterogeneous, network-wide distributed environments. 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 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 and architecture decisions drew from a variety of languages such as Eiffel, SmallTalk, Objective C, and Cedar/Mesa. The result is a language platform that has proven ideal for developing secure, distributed, networkbasedend-userapplicationsinenvironmentsrangingfromnetwork-embedded devices to the World-Wide Web and the desktop.The design requirements of Java are driven by the nature of the computing environments in which software must be deployed.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 must enablethe development of secure, high performance, and highly robust applications on multiple platforms in heterogeneous, distributed networks.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.The Java system that emerged to meet these needs is simple, so it can be easily programmed by most developers; familiar, so that current developers can easily learn Java; object oriented, to take advantage of modern software developmentmethodologies and to fit into distributed client-server applications; multithreaded, for high performance in applications that need to perform multiple concurrent activities, such as multimedia; and interpreted, for maximum portability and dynamic capabilities.Together, the above requirements comprise quite a collection of buzzwords, so let’s examine some of them and their respective benef its before going on.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..Developing your applications using Java results in software that isportable across multiple machine architectures, operating systems, andgraphical user interfaces, secure, and high performance, With Java, your jobas a software developer is much easier―you focus your full attention on the end goal of shipping innovative products on time, based on the solidfoundation of Java. The better way to develop software is here, now, broughtto you by the Java language platform.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 arevery robust―you don’t have to worry about freeing or corrupting memory.Similarly, programmers can be relatively fearless about dealing with memory when programming in Java, The garbage collection system makes thep rogrammer’s job vastly easier; with the burden of memory management taken off the programmer’s shoulders, storage allocation errors go away. Another reason commonly given that languages like Lisp, TCL, and SmallTalk are good for prototyping is that they do n’t require you to pin down decisions early on―these languages are semantically rich.Java has exactly the opposite property: 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 invocation error.中文翻译JAVA介绍作者：Martin Ngobye.出处：Computing Static Slice for Java ProgramsJava是被设计用来解决在上下文分布式的异构网络中应用程序开发的问题。

摘自：《Linux企业集群》(The Linux Enterprise Cluster)英文原文:The Linux Enterprise ClusterOverviewThis chapter will introduce the cluster load-balancing software called IP Virtual Server (IPVS). The IPVS software is a collection of kernel patches that were merged into the stock version of the Linux kernel starting with version 2.4.23. When combined with the kernel's routing and packet-filtering capabilities (discussed in Chapter 2) the IPVS-enabled kernel lets you turn any computer running Linux into a cluster load balancer. Together, the IPVS-enabled cluster load balancer and the cluster nodes are called a Linux Virtual Server (LVS).The LVS cluster load balancer accepts all incoming client computer requests for services and decides which cluster node should reply to each request. The load balancer is sometimes called an LVS Director or simply a Director. In this book the terms LVS Director, Director, and load balancer all refer to the same thing.The nodes inside an LVS cluster are called real servers, and the computers that connect to the cluster to request its services are called client computers. The client computers, the Director, and the real servers communicate with each other using IP addresses the same way computers have always exchanged packets over a network; however, to make it easier to discuss this network communication, the LVS community has developed a naming convention to describe each type of IP address based on its role in the network conversation. So before we consider the different types of LVS clusters and the choices you have for distributing your workload across the cluster nodes (called scheduling methods), let's look at this naming convention and see how it helps describe the LVS cluster.LVS IP Address Name ConventionsIn an LVS cluster, we cannot refer to network addresses as simply "IP addresses." Instead, we must distinguish between different types of IP addresses based on the roles of the nodes inside the cluster. Here are four basic types of IP addressesused in a cluster:Virtual IP (VIP) addressThe IP address the Director uses to offer services to client computersReal IP (RIP) addressThe IP address used on the cluster nodesDirector's IP (DIP) addressThe IP address the Director uses to connect to the D/RIP networkClient computer's IP (CIP) addressThe IP address assigned to a client computer that it uses as a source IP address for requests sent to the clusterThe Virtual IP (VIP)The IP address that client computers use to connect to the services offered by the cluster are called virtual IP addresses (VIPs). VIPs are IP aliases or secondary IP addresses on the NIC that connects the Director to the normal, public network.[1] The LVS VIP is important because it is the address that client computers will use when they connect to the cluster. Client computers send packets from their IP address to the VIP address to access cluster services. You tell the client computers the VIP address using a naming service (such as DNS, DDNS, WINS, LDAP, or NIS), and this is the only name or address that client computers ever need to know in order to use the services inside the cluster. (The remaining IP addresses inside the cluster are not known to the client computer.)A single Director can have multiple VIPs offering different services to client computers, and the VIPs can be public IP addresses that can be routed on the Internet, though this is not required. What is required, however, is that the client computers be able to access the VIP or VIPs of the cluster. (As we'll see later, an LVS-NAT cluster can use a private intranet IP address for the nodes inside the cluster, even though the VIP on the Director is a public Internet IP address.)The Real IP (RIP)In LVS terms, a node offering services to the outside world is called a real server. (We will use the terms cluster node and real server interchangeably throughout thisbook.) The IP address used on the real server is therefore called a real IP address (RIP).The RIP address is the IP address that is permanently assigned to the NIC that connects the real server to the same network as the Director. We'll call this network cluster network or the Director/real-server network (D/RIP network). The Director uses the RIP address for normal network communication with the real servers on the D/RIP network, but only the Director needs to know how to talk to this IP address. The Director's IP (DIP)The Director's IP (DIP) address is used on the NIC that connects the Director to the D/RIP network. As requests for cluster services are received on the Director's VIP, they are forwarded out the DIP to reach a cluster node. As is discussed in Chapter 15, the DIP and the VIP can be on the same NIC.The Client Computer's IP (CIP)The client computer's IP (CIP) address may be a local, private IP address on the same network as the VIP, or it may be a public IP address on the Internet.Types of LVS ClustersNow that we've looked at some of the IP address name conventions used to describe LVS clusters, let's examine the LVS packet-forwarding methods.LVS clusters are usually described by the type of forwarding method the LVS Director uses to relay incoming requests to the nodes inside the cluster. Three methods are currently available:Network address translation (LVS-NAT)Direct routing (LVS-DR)IP tunneling (LVS-TUN)Although more than one forwarding method can be used on a single Director (the forwarding method can be chosen on a per-node basis), I'll simplify this discussion and describe LVS clusters as if the Director is only capable of using one forwarding method at a time.The best forwarding method to use with a Linux Enterprise Cluster is LVS-DR (and the reasons for this will be explained shortly), but an LVS-NAT cluster is theeasiest to build. If you have never built an LVS cluster and want to use one to run your enterprise, you may want to start by building a small LVS-NAT cluster in a lab environment using the instructions in Chapter 12, and then learn how to convert this cluster into an LVS-DR cluster as described in Chapter 13. The LVS-TUN cluster is not generally used for mission-critical applications and is mentioned in this chapter only for the sake of completeness. It will not be described in detail.Network Address Translation (LVS-NAT)In an LVS-NAT configuration, the Director uses the Linux kernel's ability (from the kernel's Netfilter code) to translate network IP addresses and ports as packets pass through the kernel. (This is called Network Address Translation (NAT), and it was introduced in Chapter 2).Note We'll examine the LVS-NAT network communication in more detail in Chapter 12.A request for a cluster service is received by the Director on its VIP, and the Director forwards this requests to a cluster node on its RIP. The cluster node then replies to the request by sending the packet back through the Director so the Director can perform the translation that is necessary to convert the cluster node's RIP address into the VIP address that is owned by the Director. This makes it appear to client computers outside the cluster as if all packets are sent and received from a single IP address (the VIP).Basic Properties of LVS-NATThe LVS-NAT forwarding method has several basic properties:The cluster nodes need to be on the same network (VLAN or subnet) as the Director.The RIP addresses of the cluster nodes normally conform to RFC 1918[2] (that is, they are private, non-routable IP addresses used only for intracluster communication).The Director intercepts all communication (network packets going in either direction) between the client computers and the real servers.The cluster nodes use the Director's DIP as their default gateway for reply packets to the client computers.The Director can remap network port numbers. That is, a request received on the Director's VIP on one port can be sent to a RIP inside the cluster on a different port.Any type of operating system can be used on the nodes inside the cluster.A single Director can become the bottleneck for the cluster.At some point, the Director will become a bottleneck for network traffic as the number of nodes in the cluster increases, because all of the reply packets from the cluster nodes must pass through the Director. However, a 400 MHz processor can saturate a 100 Mbps connection, so the network is more likely to become the bottleneck than the LVS Director under normal circumstances.The LVS-NAT cluster is more difficult to administer than an LVS-DR cluster because the cluster administrator sitting at a computer outside the cluster is blocked from direct access to the cluster nodes, just like all other clients. When attempting to administer the cluster from outside, the administrator must first log on to the Director before being able to telnet or ssh to a specific cluster node. If the cluster is connected to the Internet, and client computers use a web browser to connect to the cluster, having the administrator log on to the Director may be a desirable security feature of the cluster, because an administrative network can be used to allow only internal IP addresses shell access to the cluster nodes. However, in a Linux Enterprise Cluster that is protected behind a firewall, you can more easily administer cluster nodes when you can connect directly to them from outside the cluster. (As we'll see in Part IV of this book, the cluster node manager in an LVS-DR cluster can sit outside the cluster and use the Mon and Ganglia packages to gain diagnostic information about the cluster remotely.)Direct Routing (LVS-DR)In an LVS-DR configuration, the Director forwards all incoming requests to the nodes inside the cluster, but the nodes inside the cluster send their replies directly back to the client computers (the replies do not go back through the Director).[3] As shown in Figure 11-3, the request from the client computer or CIP is sent to the Director's VIP. The Director then forwards the request to a cluster node or real server using the same VIP destination IP address (we'll see how the Director does this inChapter 13). The cluster node then sends a reply packet directly to the client computer, and this reply packet uses the VIP as its source IP address. The client computer is thus fooled into thinking it is talking to a single computer, when in reality it is sending request packets to one computer and receiving reply packets from another.LVS-DR network communicationBasic Properties of LVS-DRThese are the basic properties of a cluster with a Director that uses the LVS- DR forwarding method:The cluster nodes must be on the same network segment as the Director.[4]The RIP addresses of the cluster nodes do not need to be private IP addresses (which means they do not need to conform to RFC 1918).The Director intercepts inbound (but not outbound) communication between the client and the real servers.The cluster nodes (normally) do not use the Director as their default gateway for reply packets to the client computers.The Director cannot remap network port numbers.Most operating systems can be used on the real servers inside the cluster.[5]An LVS-DR Director can handle more real servers than an LVS-NAT Director.Although the LVS-DR Director can't remap network port numbers the way an LVS-NAT Director can, and only certain operating systems can be used on the real servers when LVS-DR is used as the forwarding method,[6] LVS-DR is the best forwarding method to use in a Linux Enterprise Cluster because it allows you to build cluster nodes that can be directly accessed from outside the cluster. Although this may represent a security concern in some environments (a concern that can be addressed with a proper VLAN configuration), it provides additional benefits that can improve the reliability of the cluster and that may not be obvious at first:If the Director fails, the cluster nodes become distributed servers, each with their own IP address. (Client computers on the internal network, in other words, can connect directly to the LVS-DR cluster node using their RIP addresses.) You wouldthen tell users which cluster-node RIP address to use, or you could employ a simple round-robin DNS configuration to hand out the RIP addresses for each cluster node until the Director is operational again.[7] You are protected, in other words, from a catastrophic failure of the Director and even of the LVS technology itself.[8] To test the health and measure the performance of each cluster node, monitoring tools can be used on a cluster node manager that sits outside the cluster (we'll discuss how to do this using the Mon and Ganglia packages in Part IV of this book).To quickly diagnose the health of a node, irrespective of the health of the LVS technology or the Director, you can telnet, ping, and ssh directly to any cluster node when a problem occurs.When troubleshooting what appear to be software application problems, you can tell end-users[9] how to connect to two different cluster nodes directly by IP (RIP) address. You can then have the end-user perform the same task on each node, and you'll know very quickly whether the problem is with the application program or one of the cluster nodes.Note In an LVS-DR cluster, packet filtering or firewall rules can be installed on each cluster node for added security. See the LVS-HOWTO at for a discussion of security issues and LVS. In this book we assume that the Linux Enterprise Cluster is protected by a firewall and that only client computers on the trusted network can access the Director and the real servers.IP Tunneling (LVS-TUN)IP tunneling can be used to forward packets from one subnet or virtual LAN (VLAN) to another subnet or VLAN even when the packets must pass through another network or the Internet. Building on the IP tunneling capability that is part of the Linux kernel, the LVS-TUN forwarding method allows you to place cluster nodes on a cluster network that is not on the same network segment as the Director.Note We will not use the LVS-TUN forwarding method in any recipes in this book, and it is only included here for the sake of completeness.The LVS-TUN configuration enhances the capability of the LVS-DR method ofpacket forwarding by encapsulating inbound requests for cluster services from client computers so that they can be forwarded to cluster nodes that are not on the same physical network segment as the Director. For example, a packet is placed inside another packet so that it can be sent across the Internet (the inner packet becomes the data payload of the outer packet). Any server that knows how to separate these packets, no matter where it is on your intranet or the Internet, can be a node in the cluster, as shown in Figure 11-4.[10]LVS-TUN network communicationThe arrow connecting the Director and the cluster node in Figure 11-4 shows an encapsulated packet (one stored within another packet) as it passes from the Director to the cluster node. This packet can pass through any network, including the Internet, as it travels from the Director to the cluster node.Basic Properties of LVS-TUNAn LVS-TUN cluster has the following properties:The cluster nodes do not need to be on the same physical network segment as the Director.The RIP addresses must not be private IP addresses.The Director can normally only intercept inbound communication between the client and the cluster nodes.The return packets from the real server to the client must not go through the Director. (The default gateway can't be the DIP; it must be a router or another machine separate from the Director.)The Director cannot remap network port numbers.Only operating systems that support the IP tunneling protocol[11] can be servers inside the cluster. (See the comments in the configure-lvs script included with the LVS distribution to find out which operating systems are known to support this protocol.)We won't use the LVS-TUN forwarding method in this book because we want to build a cluster that is reliable enough to run mission-critical applications, and separating the Director from the cluster nodes only increases the potential for acatastrophic failure of the cluster. Although using geographically dispersed cluster nodes might seem like a shortcut to building a disaster recovery data center, such a configuration doesn't improve the reliability of the cluster, because anything that breaks the connection between the Director and the cluster nodes will drop all client connections to the remote cluster nodes. A Linux Enterprise Cluster must be able to share data with all applications running on all cluster nodes (this is the subject of Chapter 16). Geographically dispersed cluster nodes only decrease the speed and reliability of data sharing.[2]RFC 1918 reserves the following IP address blocks for private intranets:10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255192.168.0.0 through 192.168.255.255[3]Without the special LVS "martian" modification kernel patch applied to the Director, the normal LVS-DR Director will simply drop reply packets if they try to go back out through the Director.[4]The LVS-DR forwarding method requires this for normal operation. See Chapter 13 for more info on LVS-DR clusters[5]The operating system must be capable of configuring the network interface to avoid replying to ARP broadcasts. For more information, see "ARP Broadcasts and the LVS-DR Cluster" in Chapter 13[6]The real servers inside an LVS-DR cluster must be able to accept packets destined for the VIP without replying to ARP broadcasts for the VIP (see Chapter 13)[7]See the "Load Sharing with Heartbeat—Round-Robin DNS" section in Chapter 8 for a discussion of round-robin DNS[8]This is unlikely to be a problem in a properly built and properly tested cluster configuration. We'll discuss how to build a highly available Director in Chapter 15.[9]Assuming the client computer's IP address, the VIP and the RIP are all private (RFC 1918) IP addresses[10]If your cluster needs to communicate over the Internet, you will likely need to encrypt packets before sending them. This can be accomplished with the IPSecprotocol (see the FreeS/WAN project at for details). Buildinga cluster that uses IPSec is outside the scope of this book.[11]Search the Internet for the "Linux 2.4 Advanced Routing HOWTO" for more information about the IP tunneling protocol.LVS Scheduling MethodsHaving discussed three ways to forward packets to the nodes inside the cluster, let's look at how to distribute the workload across the cluster nodes. When the Director receives an incoming request from a client computer to access a cluster service on its VIP, it has to decide which cluster node should get the request. The scheduling methods the Director can use to make this decision fall into two basic categories: fixed scheduling and dynamic scheduling.Note When a node needs to be taken out of the cluster for maintenance, you can set its weight to 0 using either a fixed or a dynamic scheduling method. When a cluster node's weight is 0, no new connections will be assigned to it. Maintenance can be performed after all of the users log out normally at the end of the day. We'll discuss cluster maintenance in detail in Chapter 19.Fixed (or Non-Dynamic) Scheduling MethodsIn the case of fixed, or non-dynamic, scheduling methods, the Director selects the cluster node to use for the inbound request without checking to see how many of the previously assigned connections are active. Here is the current list of fixed scheduling methods:Round-robin (RR)When a new request is received, the Director picks the next server on its list of servers, rotating through them in an endless loop.Weighted round-robin (WRR)You assign each cluster node a weight or ranking, based on how much processing load it can handle. This weight is then used, along with the round-robin technique, to select the next cluster node to be used when a new request is received, regardless of the number of connections that are still active. A server with a weight of 2 will receive twice the number of new connections as a server with a weight of 1. Ifyou change the weight of a server to 0, no new connections will be allowed to the server (but currently active connections will not be dropped). We'll look at how LVS uses this weight to balance the incoming workload in the "Weighted Least-Connection (WLC)" section of this chapter.Destination hashingThis method always sends requests for the same IP address to the same server in the cluster. Like the locality-based least-connection (LBLC) scheduling method (which will be discussed shortly), this method is useful when the servers inside the cluster are really cache or proxy servers.Source hashingThis method can be used when the Director needs to be sure the reply packets are sent back to the same router or firewall that the requests came from. This scheduling method is normally only used when the Director has more than one physical network connection, so that the Director knows which firewall or router to send the reply packet back through to reach the proper client computer.中文翻译:Linux企业集群综述本章将要介绍的是一款叫做IP 虚拟服务器（IPVS）的集群负载均衡软件，它是被合并到Linux2.4.23内核起的主干内核版本的补丁集合，当与内核路由和数据包过滤功能（第2章中讨论了）一起使用时启用了IPVS的内核让你可以将任何运行Linux的计算机变成一个集群负载调度器，启用IPVS的集群负载调度器和集群节点一起叫做一个Linux虚拟服务器（LVS）。

Aforetime these were 8-bit microcontrollers such as 8051, and now these are 16-and 32-bit microcontrollers. Unspoken rule is that you’ll find mostly Hitachi and Fujicu microcontrollers in PLC controllers by Japanese makers, Siemens in European controllers, and Motorola microcontrollers in American ones. CPU also takes care of communication, interconnectedness among other parts of PLC controllers, program execution, memory operation, overseeing input and setting up of an output. PLC controllers have complex routines for memory checkup in order to ensure that PLC memory was not damaged (memory checkup is done for safety reasons).Generally speaking, CPU unit makes a great number of check-ups of the PLC controller itself so eventual errors would be discovered early. You can simply look at any PLC controller and see that there are several indicators in the form. of light diodes for error signalization.System memory (today mostly implemented in FLASH technology) is used by a PLC for a process control system. Aside form. this operating system it also contains a user program translated forma ladder diagram to a binary form. FLASH memory contents can be changed only in case where user program is being changed. PLC controllers were used earlier instead of PLASH memory and have had EPROM memory instead of FLASH memory which had to be erased with UV lamp and programmed on programmers. With the use of FLASH technology this process was greatly shortened. Reprogramming a program memory is done through a serial cable in a program for application development.User memory is divided into blocks having special functions. Some parts of a memory are used for storing input and output status. The real status of an input is stored either as “1”or as “0”in a specific memory bit/ each input or output has one corresponding bit in memory. Other parts of memory are used to store variable contents for variables used in used program. For example, time value, or counter value would be stored in this part of the memory.PLC controller can be reprogrammed through a computer (usual way), but also through manual programmers (consoles). This practically means that each PLC controller can programmed through a computer if you have the software needed for programming. Today’s transmission computers are ideal for reprogramming a PLC controller in factory itself. This is of great importance to industry. Once the system is corrected, it is also important to read the right program into a PLC again. It is also good to check from time to time whether program in a PLC has not changed. This helps to avoid hazardous situations in factory rooms (some automakers have established communication networks which regularly check programs in PLC controllers to ensure execution only of good programs). Almost every program for programming a PLC controller possesses various useful options such as: forced switching on and off of the system input/outputs (I/O lines),program follow up in real time as well as documenting a diagram. This documenting is necessary to understand and define failures and malfunctions. Programmer can add remarks, names of input or output devices, and comments that can be useful when finding errors, or with system maintenance. Adding comments and remarks enables any technician (and not just a person who developed the system) to understand a ladder diagram right away. Comments and remarks can even quote precisely part numbers if replacements would be needed. This would speed up a repair of any problems that come up due to bad parts. The old way was such that a person who developed a system had protection on the program, so nobody aside from this person could understand how it was done. Correctly documented ladder diagram allows any technician to understand thoroughly how system functions.Electrical supply is used in bringing electrical energy to central processing unit. Most PLC controllers work either at 24 VDC or 220 VAC. On some PLC controllers you’ll find electrical supply as a separate module. Those are usually bigger PLC controllers, while small and medium series already contain the supply module. User has to determine how much current to take from I/O module to ensure that electrical supply provides appropriate amount of current. Different types of modules use different amounts of electrical current. This electrical supply is usually not used to start external input or output. User has to provide separate supplies in starting PLC controller inputs because then you can ensure so called “pure” supply for the PLC controller. With pure supply we mean supply where industrial environment can not affect it damagingly. Some of the smaller PLC controllers supply their inputs with voltage from a small supply source already incorporated into a PLC.中文翻译：从结构上分，PLC分为固定式和组合式（模块式）两种。
