Oсновные типы компьютеров
1) мэйнфреймы, или большие ЭВМ – это компьютеры, созданные для обработки больших объемов информации. Наиболее крупный их производитель – фирма IВМ. Отличаются исключительной надежностью, высоким быстродействием, очень большой пропускной способностью каналов ввода-вывода. К ним могут подсоединяться тысячи терминалов (дисплеев с клавиатурой) или персональных компьютеров для работы пользователей. Большинство крупных корпораций, банков, зарубежных правительственных учреждений обрабатывают свои данные именно на больших ЭВМ. Хотя они могут стоить миллионы долларов, спрос на них не падает, так как обеспечиваемые ими централизованные хранение и обработка данных обходятся дешевле, чем обслуживание распределенных систем обработки данных, состоящих из сотен и тысяч персональных компьютеров;
2) супер-ЭВМ – это компьютеры, предназначенные для решения задач, требующих громадных объемов вычислений. Основные потребители супер-ЭВМ – военные, метеорологи, геологи и многие прочие ученые. Например, качественный прогноз погоды или моделирование ядерного взрыва требуют колоссальных расчетов, так что применение супер- ЭВМ здесь полностью оправдано. Супер-ЭВМ стоят десятки миллионов долларов (если не дороже), их производят всего несколько фирм – Сгау Researsh (ныне это подразделение фирмы Silicon Graphics), Hitachi и др.;
3) мини-ЭВМ – это компьютеры, занимающие промежуточное положение между персональными компьютерами и мэйнфреймами. За рубежом они используются в большинстве сколько-либо крупных фирм, в университетах, правительственных учреждениях, центрах обработки данных и т.д. – как для тех задач, для которых производительности персональных компьютеров недостаточно, так и для обеспечения централизованного хранения и обработки данных. Обычно к мини-ЭВМ подключаются десятки или сотни терминалов (дисплеев с клавиатурой) или персональных компьютеров для работы пользователей. Основные производители мини-ЭВМ – DЕС (Digital Equipment Согр.), Sun, , Неwlett-Packard, IВМ, Silicon Graphics и др.
4) рабочие станции – как правило, это младшие модели мини-ЭВМ предназначенные для работы с одним пользователем. Обычно они имеют производительность как у самых мощных персональных компьютеров или даже несколько больше;
5) Персональные компьютеры;
6) карманные компьютеры, или личные злектронные помощники, – это небольшие компьютеры весом около 300 – 500 грамм, помещающиеся на кисти одной руки. Как правило, они работают на обычных батарейках и одного комплекта батареек им хватает на несколько десятков часов. Большинство карманных компьютеров не совместимо с настольными компьютерами типа IВМ РС, но есть и IВМ РС- совместимые. В карманных компьютерах нет ни жесткого диска, ни дисковода для дискет, ни дисковода СD-RОМ (из-за их большого энергопотребления). Некоторые карманные компьютеры имеют миниатюрную клавиатуру, но есть и модели без клавиатуры – в них ввод данных осуществляется нажатиями или рисованием специальным пером по экрану. Наиболее распространены карманные компьютеры фирм Аррlе, Неwlett-Packard, Sony, Psion и др.
