不堪负荷 断网频繁 前不久,世界最大的联机服务公司——美国联机公司的600多万名用户为一个软件的问题而完全中断通信19个小时。去年10月,互联网络服务提供者BBN公司的斯坦福大学互联网络设施中的一个故障使400家顶尖高技术公司在将近一天的时间里无法上网。自1988年以来,互联网络用户每年都增加一倍,在一些长途线路上则是每4个月就增加一倍。由于互联网络的数据通道被堵塞,环球网网页要等很长时间才能上网。另一方面,互联网络的需求在急剧增加。以前只是梦想的声频和视频应用现在已经成为很普通的事情。沿线的信息编码比两年前快30％。大的长途信息提供者正以惊人的
Not long ago, more than 6 million users of AOL, the world’s largest online services company, completely interrupted communication for 19 hours for one software issue. Last October, a breakdown at Stanford University’s Internet facility at Internet service provider BBN Inc. left 400 of the nation’s leading high-tech companies out of reach for nearly a day.
