Tech/Engineering - Computers (general) | | French term or phrase: devraient finir d’envahir l’ubiquité quotidienne | La dernière génération des ordinateurs visibles
Cependant, on devrait voir dans les années qui viennent (2005-2010) apparaître une dernière génération de nano-processeurs qui devraient finir d’envahir l’ubiquité quotidienne, l’ordinateur jetable fixé aux objets, épinglé sur la chemise, agrafé sous la peau. Ce sont les RFIDs, les prothèses numériques.
Les logiciels de ces ordinateurs jetables seront téléchargés, récupérés, gérés par des aspirateurs, des lecteurs qui sont à inventer.
L’Europe devrait parier là-dessus, car l’Europe a un avantage dans ce domaine : on n’a pas à gérer la compatibilité avec le passé, on peut donc tout inventer, les nano-systèmes d’exploitation, les nano-protocoles, etc.
Une nouvelle informatique est à inventer. Elle se rapproche de l’informatique des débuts, excepté qu’il faut envisager une informatique stable, pas sous-tendue par une loi de Moore qui a tout pollué.
Les smart dusts
Ces derniers avatars de nano-ordinateurs seront les derniers ordinateurs visibles. Ensuite on verra apparaître des robots, des actuateurs, quasi invisibles...
Isn't the idea that these devices WILL invade our everyday environment...but that doesn't quite seem to fit the grammar. |

| | You make it sound as if | Explanation:
invasion is something one shouldn't want or need, Mark. Look at Hastings, Normandy, Iraq ...
We should be positively DELIGHTED that miniature living computers are taking the humdrum out of our miserable existences. Just think, at some point miniature versions of 2001's HAL will actually wipe out our miserable existences, relieving us of the tedium of it all.
I think the point is that the Martians have already landed. How many smart (intelligent) - albeit cumbersome - electronic devices do you already have in your household?
And someone sniggered at "conjoined"! Homo bioionicus, here we come! |
