Virus 病毒
Science fiction writers of the cyberpunk persuasion introduced the world to a new sense of virus: the computer virus. This sense of virus appears in a short story by Gregory Benford published in 1970 in which a malevolent computer program called VIRUS infects computers via their modem connections. Within five years David Gerrold, Michael Crichton, and John Brunner had all published sci-fi novels featuring computer viruses, and from there, computers along with the viruses that aim to corrupt them became part of language and life beyond science fiction.
賽博朋克派系的科幻作家賦予了病毒一詞新的含義:計(jì)算機(jī)病毒。杰格瑞·班福德1970年發(fā)表的短篇小說中出現(xiàn)了這種病毒。書中,一個(gè)名為VIRUS的惡意程序通過調(diào)制解調(diào)器感染了電腦。不到五年,大衛(wèi)·杰洛德、邁克爾·克萊頓、約翰·布魯勒爾都發(fā)表了有關(guān)電腦病毒的科幻小說。從此以后,攜帶病毒的計(jì)算機(jī)就不單存在于科幻小說中了,它成為了我們語言和生活的一部分。
