1.2 Computers: Hardware and Software (Cont.)
 Computers process data under the control of sequences of
instructions called computer programs.
 These software programs guide the computer through ordered
actions specified by people called computer programmers ( 程式設計
師).
 You’ll learn a key programming methodology ( 方法 ) that’s enhancing
programmer productivity, thereby reducing software development
costs—object-oriented programming.

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 12

1.2 Computers: Hardware and Software (Cont.)
 A computer consists of various devices referred to as hardware
◦ (e.g., the keyboard, screen, mouse, hard disks, memory, DVD drives and
processing units).
 Computing costs are dropping dramatically ( 戲劇性的 ), owing to rapid
developments in hardware and software technologies.
 Computers that might have filled large rooms and cost millions of dollars
decades ago are now inscribed on silicon chips smaller than a fingernail,
costing perhaps a few dollars each.
 Silicon-chip ( 矽晶片 ) technology has made computing so economical that
computers have become a commodity.

1.2 .1 Moore’s Law ( 摩爾定律 )
 Every year or two, the capacities of computers have approximately
doubled inexpensively.
 This remarkable trend often is called Moore’s Law.
 Named for the person who identified the trend, Gordon Moore, co-
founder of Intel.
 Moore’s Law and related observations apply especially to the amount
of memory that computers have for programs, the amount of secondary
storage (such as solid-state drive storage) they have to hold programs
and data over longer periods of time, and their processor speeds—the
speeds at which they execute their programs (i.e., do their work).

 Moore’s Law ( 摩爾定律 )
Electronics Magazine 雜誌在 1965 年 4 月 19 日發表戈登摩爾撰寫的一篇專文，他在文中歸納預測 積體電路的複雜度每年會增加一倍，
且成本將持續下降。這項被稱為摩爾定律的預測促使科技普遍推廣至世界每個角落，如今更成為科技快速變遷的代名詞。摩爾在 1975 年修正他的預測，
預估晶片內部電晶體的數量每兩年會增加一倍，其效力一直延續今。 除了預測晶片複雜度的成長速度外 ( 以電腦晶片內含電晶體為基準 ) ，摩爾定律亦預
估成本 將持續下降。

就摩爾定律延伸， IC 技術每隔一年半推進一個世代。因為建造研究和實驗室的成本需求十分高 , 而有財力投資建立和維護晶片工廠的企業有限，研究原預測“摩爾定律“的時代快

將結束，但是”黃氏定律”似乎成功接手… Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 15
1.2 .1 Moore’s Law (Cont.)
 Similar growth has occurred in the communications field.
 Costs have plummeted as enormous demand for communications

bandwidth (i.e., information-carrying capacity) has attracted intense

competition.
 Such phenomenal improvement is fostering ( 促成 ) the Information

Revolution ( 資訊革命 ) .

1.3 Data Hierarchy ( 資料的層級 )
 Data items processed by computers form a data hierarchy that
becomes larger and more complex in structure as we progress from the
simplest data items (called “bits”) to richer ones, such as characters
and fields.

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 28
1.3 Data Hierarchy (Cont.)
Bits ( 位元 )
 The smallest data item in a computer can assume the value 0 or the value 1.
 Such a data item is called a bit (short for “binary digit”—a digit that can
assume either of two values).
 Remarkably, the impressive functions performed by computers involve only
the simplest manipulations of 0s and 1s—examining a bit’s value, setting a
bit’s value and reversing a bit’s value (from 1 to 0 or from 0 to 1).

Bytes ( 位元組 )

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 29

1.3 Data Hierarchy (Cont.)
Characters
 We prefer to work with decimal digits (0–9), uppercase letters (A–Z),
lowercase letters (a–z), and special symbols (e.g., $, @, %, &, *, (, ), –, +, ", :, ?
and / ).
 Digits, letters and special symbols are known as characters. The computer’s
character set is the set of all the characters used to write programs and
represent data items on that device.
 Computers process only 1s and 0s, so every character is represented as a
pattern of 1s and 0s.
 Java uses Unicode® characters that are composed of one, two or four bytes
(8, 16 or 32 bits).

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 30

1.3 Data Hierarchy (Cont.)
 Unicode contains characters for many of the world’s languages.
 See Appendix B for more information on the ASCII (American Standard Code
for Information Interchange) character set—the popular subset of Unicode
that represents uppercase and lowercase letters in the English alphabet,
digits and some common special characters.

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 31

1.3 Data Hierarchy (Cont.)
Fields ( 欄位 )
 Just as characters are composed of bits, fields are composed of characters or
bytes.
 A field is a group of characters or bytes that conveys meaning.
 For example, a field consisting of uppercase and lowercase letters could be
used to represent a person’s name, and a field consisting of decimal digits
could represent a person’s age.

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 32

1.3 Data Hierarchy (Cont.)
Records ( 紀錄 )
 Several related fields can be used to compose a record (implemented as a
class in Java).
 In a payroll system, for example, the record for an employee might consist of
the following fields (possible types for these fields are shown in
parentheses):
◦ Employee identification number (a whole number)
◦ Name (a string of characters)
◦ Address (a string of characters)
◦ Hourly pay rate (a number with a decimal point)
◦ Year-to-date earnings (a number with a decimal point)
◦ Amount of taxes withheld (a number with a decimal point)
 Thus, a record is a group of related fields.
 In the preceding example, all the fields belong to the same employee.

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 33

1.3 Data Hierarchy (Cont.)
Files ( 檔案 )
 A file is a group of related records.
 More generally, a file contains arbitrary data in arbitrary formats.
 In some operating systems, a file is viewed simply as a sequence of bytes—
any organization of the bytes in a file, such as organizing the data into
records, is a view created by the application programmer.

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 34

1.3 Data Hierarchy (Cont.)
Database ( 資料庫 )
 A database is a collection of data that’s organized for easy access and
manipulation.
 The most popular database model is the relational database in which data is
stored in simple tables.
 A table includes records and fields.
◦ For example, a table of students might include first name, last name, major, year, student
ID number and grade point average fields.
◦ The data for each student is a record, and the individual pieces of information in each
record are the fields.
 You can search, sort and otherwise manipulate the data based on its
relationship to multiple tables or databases.

Data warehouse( 資料倉儲 )

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 35

1.3 Data Hierarchy (Cont.)
Big Data ( 大數據 )
 The amount of data being produced worldwide is enormous and
growing explosively.
 According to IBM, approximately 2.5 quintillion bytes (2.5 exabytes)
of data are created daily
 According to Salesforce.com, as of October 2015 90% of the world’s
data was created in just the prior 12 months
 Big data applications deal with such massive amounts of data and
this field is growing quickly, creating lots of opportunity for software
developers.

1.5.11 The UML (Unified Modeling Language)
 The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is the most widely used
graphical scheme for modeling object-oriented systems.

1.6 Operating Systems ( 作業系統 )
 Software systems that make using computers more convenient.
 Provide services that allow each application to execute safely, efficiently and
concurrently ( 同步的， i.e., in parallel) with other applications.
 The software that contains the core ( 核 心 ) components of the operating system is
called the kernel.
 Popular desktop operating systems include Linux, Windows 10 and Mac OS X.
 Popular mobile operating systems used in smartphones and tablets include Google’s
Android, Apple’s iOS (for its iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch devices), Windows
Phone and Blackberry OS.

open-source movement
 Open-source software ( 開源軟體 ) departs from the proprietary

software development style that dominated software’s early years

 With open-source development, individuals and companies

contribute their efforts in developing, maintaining and evolving

software in exchange for the right to use that software for their own
purposes, typically at no charge

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 50

1.6.2 Linux—An Open Source Operating System (cont.)
 Open-source code is often scrutinized ( 審查 ) by a much larger
audience than proprietary software, so errors often get removed
faster

1.4 Machine Languages, Assembly Languages and High-Level Languages

 Programmers write instructions in various programming languages,

some directly understandable by computers and others requiring
intermediate translation steps.
 These may be divided into three general types:

◦ Machine languages
◦ Assembly languages
◦ High-level languages

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 61

1.4 Machine Languages, Assembly Languages and High-Level Languages
(Cont.)
Machine Languages
 Any computer can directly understand only its own machine language, defined by its
hardware design.
◦ Generally consist of strings of numbers (ultimately reduced to 1s and 0s) that instruct
computers to perform their most elementary operations one at a time.
◦ Machine dependent—a particular machine language can be used on only one type of computer.
Assembly Languages and Assemblers
 English-like abbreviations that represent elementary operations formed the basis
of assembly languages.
 Translator programs called assemblers ( 組譯器 ) convert early assembly-language
programs to machine language.

Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education Ltd. All Rights Reserved 62

1.4 Machine Languages, Assembly Languages and High-Level Languages
(Cont.)
High-Level Languages and Compilers
 High-level languages
◦ Single statements accomplish substantial tasks.
◦ Compilers convert high-level language programs into machine language.
◦ Allow you to write instructions that look almost like everyday English and contain commonly
used mathematical notations.
◦ A payroll program written in a high-level language might contain a single statement such as
 grossPay = basePay + overTimePay
Interpreters ( 直譯器 )
 Compiling a high-level language program into machine language can take
considerable computer time.
 Interpreter programs, developer to execute high-level language programs
directly, avoid the delay or compilation, although they run slower than compiled
programs.

 1.11 Internet and the World Wide Web
• Internet 前身係在 1960 年代後期，由 美國國防部 (DOD) 資助的 ARPA (Advanced Research Projects
Agency) 開發，原用以連結少數大學與研究機構的電腦，稱為 ARPAnet ，預防通訊在冷戰被破壞
• ARPAnet 快速簡易的通訊即是現今使用的電子信件 (electronic mail ， e-mail)
• ARPAnet 的 通 訊 協 定 (protocol ， set of rules) 即 是 TCP ( Transmission Control
Protocol) ， TCP 確保訊息封包 (packets) 能從發送端正確 ( 接力 ) 傳送到接收端
• In parallel with the early evolution of the Internet, organizations worldwide were
implementing their own networks for both intraorganization (within an organization) and
interorganization (between organizations) communication.
• ARPA 開發了網際網路通訊協定 (Internet Protocol ， IP) 克服不同網路間的通訊，建構了網路的網路 (a network of
networks)
• TCP/IP 是一複合通訊協定組
• Each Internet-connected- device has an IP address—a unique numerical identifier
used by devices communicating via TCP/IP to locate one another on the Internet.

 W3C 目標在連結全球性網頁，不分語言與文化
 World Wide Web (WWW 全球資訊網 )
◦ 用以搜尋與檢視多媒體 (multimedia) 文件
◦ 過去，大部分的應用程式都在未彼此連接的電腦上執行，今天的應用程式可以連結到全世界的電腦
 HTML 因標籤的限制，因此 W3C 繼續制定了 XML

1.11 Internet and the World Wide Web (Cont.)
• XML 可彈性自訂各種資料，是其最重要的特色
– 任何應用程式都能處理 XML 所描述的資料
– 軟體開發者逐漸將 XML 與其應用程式結合以改善其網頁功能與資料的交換性
– XML 亦被應用在資料庫 (database)
• 使用 XML 文件的應用程式彼此可以溝通，如果它們都能了解共同的 XML 字彙
• 簡易物件通訊協定 ( Simple Object Access Protocol ， SOAP) 是一種以 XML 與 HTTP 為基礎的
通訊協定，多用於實作網路服務 (web service) 。 SOAP 以 XML 為訊息的「格式」，而以 HTTP 或
SMTP(Simple Mail Transfer Protocol ，簡易郵件傳送協定 ) 為訊息的「傳送協定」。 SOAP 的作用是
傳送編譯網路服務所需的「要求」給應用程式，再將應用程式處理後的結果送回，亦即是應用程式和使用者之間傳輸資料的一種機
制，可以在不同的作業系統與網路獨立運作。

1.11.1 Internet: A Network of Networks
 In parallel with the early evolution of the Internet, organizations
worldwide were implementing their own networks for both
intraorganization (that is, within an organization) and
interorganization (that is, between organizations) communication.
 One challenge was to enable these different networks to communicate
with each other.
 The Internet Protocol (IP) created a true “network of networks,” the
current architecture of the Internet.
 The combined set of protocols is now called TCP/IP.
 Each Internet-connected- device has an IP address—a unique
numerical identifier used by devices communicating via TCP/IP to
locate one another on the Internet.

1.11.1 The Internet: A Network of Networks (Cont.)
 Businesses rapidly realized that by using the Internet, they could
improve their operations and offer new and better services to their
clients.
 This generated fierce ( 殘忍的 ) competition among communications

carriers and hardware and software suppliers to meet the increased

infrastructure( 基礎設施 ) demand.
 As a result, bandwidth ( 頻寬 ) —the information-carrying capacity of

communications lines—on the Internet has increased tremendously,

while hardware costs have plummeted.

1.11.2 Web 2.0: Going Social
 The web exploded in the mid-to-late 1990s, but the “dot com” economic bust
brought hard times in the early 2000s.
 Resurgence that began in 2004 or so has been named Web 2.0.
 Google is widely regarded as the signature company of Web 2.0.
 Some other companies with “Web 2.0 characteristics” are YouTube (video
sharing), FaceBook (social networking), Twitter (microblogging), Groupon (social
commerce), Foursquare (mobile check-in), Salesforce (business software offered
as online services), Craigslist (free classified listings), Flickr (photo sharing),
Second Life (a virtual world), Skype (Internet telephony) and Wikipedia (a free
online encyclopedia).

 Google
◦ In 1996, Stanford computer science Ph.D. candidates Larry Page and Sergey Brin began
collaborating on a new search engine.
◦ In 1997, they changed the name to Google—a play on the mathematical term googol
◦ Google’s ability to return extremely accurate search results quickly helped it become the most
widely used search engine and one of the most popular websites in the world.
