信息高速公路,已成为当今世界引人注目的通向21世纪的宏伟工程,这一被称为“第二次信息革命”的浪潮,正以不可抗拒之势席卷全球。最近,美国副总统戈尔在《全球信息系统将促进发展》一文中,提出把各国的信息基础设施连接起来,以构成全球信息高速公路的方案。美国政府把戈尔所提的设想和原则,近日提交给在印尼举行的亚太经济合作组织国际会议讨论,国际电信联盟已签署了这些原则。按照这一设想,全球信息高速公路将成为整个世界的神经中枢,圆形的地球将如同一个具有智慧的大脑,它将使全球每一个角落都能通过分布式智慧网络的联系分享信息,实现相互瞬息交流和沟通。
The information superhighway has become an eye-catching landmark in the 21st century. This wave, called the “second information revolution,” is sweeping the globe with irresistible force. Recently, in a speech entitled “The Global Information System to Promote Development,” Vice President Gore of the United States proposed to connect the information infrastructure of various countries to form a global information superhighway. The U.S. government recently submitted the assumptions and principles Gore made in its discussion to the APEC International Conference held in Indonesia for discussion. The International Telecommunication Union has signed these principles. According to this vision, the global information superhighway will become the nerve center of the entire world. The circular earth will act like a brain with wisdom. It will enable every corner of the world to share information through the distributed intelligent network, Instant communication and communication.
