Privet! HOW usually hochetsya
vyrazit udovolstvie you
zaglyanut have decided in this Section on
zhurnala. In this raz budet statya
postroena in RESIDENCE otvetov nA questions kotorye naibolee
chasto zadayutsya about kompyuterov
Amiga. Itak ...
________________
What oznachaet mnogozadachnost
operatsionnoy sistemy (AmigaOS)?
AmigaOS yavlyaetsya pervoy in
mire realno-mnogozadachnoy operatsionnoy sistemoy. This
oznachaet that net neobhodimosti sozdavat programmy with
uchetom of that they will rabotat in mnogozadachnom rezhime,
skoree naoborot - nado spetsialno ostanavlivat lishnie
protsessy in sisteme, If neobhodimo to rabotala only odna
programma. In srede AmigaOS lyubye programmy
effektivno rabotayut parallelno
with others. Reaktsiya nA deystviya
polzovatelya nezamedlitelnaya,
ukazatel mouse peremeschaetsya bez
zaderzhki.
HOW naschet "zhadnosti" AmigaOS
by otnosheniyu to resursam mashiny?
AmigaOS not require large
obemov The memory and the speed ochen effektivna raboty. Imeya
only 1 or 2 megabayta RAM, you uzhe
mozhete polnotsenno rabotat with
neskolkimi decent prilozheniyami, bez kakih any zametnyh
"Tormozheny. Ha Vashem zhestkom
diske AmigaOS and ee prilozheniya
takzhe zanimayut sovsem nemnogo
mesta.
Yavlyaetsya whether AmigaOS operatsi
onnoy sistemoy, rabotayuschey in pe
alnom masshtabe vremeni?
Teoreticheski - net, prakticheski - yes. To tak nazyvaemyh
"Realnovremennyh" operatsionnyh
sistem dolzhna davatsya garantiya
nA takuyu harakteristiku, HOW
maksimalnoe TIME reaktsii nA
vneshnie signaly. For AmigaOS takie garantii DO NOT dayutsya
but ona nastolko effektivna and bystra,
that uzhe ispolzuet in tehnologicheskih protsessah nA
proizvodstve.
Yavlyaetsya whether AmigaOS "obekt
but-orientirovannoy?
In versiyah vyshe AmigaOS 2.0
soderzhatsya elementy for object files contained within
programmirovaniya.
What takoe "IFF" - format?
This format hraneniya dannyh
for obmena mezhdu programmami.
Vse prilozheniya podderzhivayut this
format, tak that DO NOT voznikaet
problem in one and obrabotke teh
zhe dannyh raznymi programmami. In
this formate may hranitsya
graficheskie fayly, zvukovye dannye (instrumenty, muzykalnye
modules), and tekst konfiguratsionnye fayly.
What imeyut obschego Amiga and
Multimedia?
Mnogoe. Amiga traditsionno
predlagaet everything you need for unto you
obedineniya kompyuternoy grafiki
and animatsii in sochetanii with simultaneous sound and the
ability to convenient for controlling of polzovatelya vsem it.
A is in printsipe and Apartment belongs multimedia. Listed
vyshe "IFF" - format pomogaet obedinit razlichnye types dannyh.
The Amiga imeetsya shirokaya palitra programm (in chisle
professionalnyh) for raboty This napravlenii. In 1985,
Vse it esche DO NOT nazyvalos multimedia, but uzhe
suschestvovalo and primenyalos nA Amiga.
Can I ispolzovat Amiga
for "virtualnoy realnosti?
Yes, and it uzhe delaetsya. Virtualnaya realnost ispolzuet
metody multimedia, plus dopolnitelnye datchiki and
nestandartnye Charger otobrazheniya. Blagodarya svoey
mnogozadachnoy operatsionnoy sisteme, Amiga good suitable for
these tseley.Neskolko kommercheskih games in stile virtualnoy
realnosti postroeny nA Amiga-tehnologii.
Mozhet whether Amiga rabotat with CD
ROM?
Nay, but to any possible podklyuchat modeli Amiga CD-ROM
cherez sootvetstvuyuschy interfeys (nekotorye modeli Amiga
imeyut vstroenny). Nachinaya with versii OS 3.1 Amiga imeet
vstroennoe programmnoe obespechenie for raboty with CD-ROM
drayvami. A krome order Amiga CD32 and AmigaCDTV imeyut
CD-ROM HOW standart.
What takoe ARexx?
ARexx - a language programmirovaniya, is a part of AmigaOS.
He sozdan for organizatsii obmena dannymi and komandami mezhdu
razlichnymi programmami. If the
programma imeet tak nazyvaemy
"ARexx-port", then ey can upravlyat from another programmy.
Neskolko programm can svyazat in edinoe tseloe for organizatsii
integrirovannogo rabochego prostranstva.
Pochemu for Amiga DO NOT sozdayutsya
moschnye programmnye pakety?
Because they have net neobhodimosti.V takih paketah you ochen
chasto obnaruzhivaete that they DO NOT komponenty tak powerful,
HOW otdelnye programmy, sozdannye for konkretnyh zadach. Ha
Amiga gorazdo prosche sozdat for sebya rabochuyu sredu of
otdelnyh programm. Blagodarya mnogozadachnosti and ARexx, you
poluchite maksimalny effekt in dostizhenii Vashey konkretnoy
tseli.
Can I ispolzovat nA Ami
ga analogovy joystick?
Nay, bez problem, though (to sozhaleniyu) DO NOT ochen many
games the plug podderzhivayut.
Kakova total ideologiya Amiga?
This svoboda and flexibility. Amiga
DO NOT diktuet polzovatelyu or programmistu, HOW emu sleduet
postupat. Vsegda imeetsya alternativny way. Any chelovek mozhet
vybrat naibolee convenient way for nego realizatsii teh or
other zadach.
AmigaOS yavlyaetsya 16 or
32-bit operatsionnoy siste
my?
With samogo nachala - a 32-xbitnaya OS blagodarya vnutrenney
32-bit strukture protsessorov Motorola. Therefore, the
32-bitnye the possibility of new protsessorov used
avtomaticheski.
Kakie imeyutsya nA Amiga Languages
programmirovaniya?
Assemblery, C, C + +, Pascal,
Modula 2, Oberon, Fortran, Basic, BCPL, E, scheme, Cluster,
ARexx, Lisp, Prolog, etc. Naibolshaya chast AmigaOS napisana
nA C, a TIME-kritichnye protsedury - nA assemblere.
Sovmestima whether Amiga with MS-DOS
and IBM-PC?
Yes, but not the live smysle.
Amiga - it pervuyu ochered -
Your World with svoey structure.
But blagodarya svoey flexibility
Amiga predostavlyaet neskolko
putey for dostizheniya sovmestimosti other platformami (in
chastnosti with PC). Programmy, rabotayuschie under OS 2.0 and
vyshe can napryamuyu rabotat with MS-DOS diskami. Suschestvuyut
takzhe programmnye emulators PC, Mac, Atari, C64, Spectrum. For
large lyubiteley PC imeyutsya "zheleznye"
emulators soderzhaschie your protsessor and rabotayuschie full
speed.
Kakoy obem RAM mozhet usta
navlivatsya in the Amiga?
In zavisimosti from tipa protsessora you mozhete ustanavlivat
from (HOW least) 9 megabayt
to (teoreticheski) 2 gigabayt.
At any konfiguratsii and any
obeme memory is, ona ispolzuet
avtomaticheski, bez neobhodimosti in ustanovke kakih any
drayverov, hand perestanovke adresov etc. Ha materinskoy plate
modeley A3000 and A4000 You mozhete ustanovit to 18 megabayt
RAM, and a date every slot of chetyreh rasshireniya Zorro-III
You mozhete postavit kartochku 256 th megabaytami. In rezultate
can "Rasshiritsya" to bolee chem 1
gigabayta!
What takoe Tyres Zorro?
Tyres Zorro - this standartnaya
Tyres rasshireniya for powerful modeley Amiga. Ha Amiga 2000
byla Tyres Zorro-II (16 bit). Zorro-III byla vpervye primenena
nA Amiga 3000 and imela 32-bit
"Width". Ona yavlyaetsya one
naibolee fast from imeyuschihsya
nA segodnyashny Day of. Zorro-III
sovmestima with Zorro-II. One of the
glavnyh preimuschestv this bus -
"Avtokonfig.
