BackgroundInformation

TheFutureoftheNetEconomy

网络化经济的明天

Aswecrossthethresholdintothenextcentury,humansocietyisbeginningitsmovefrom

theindustrialeconomyintotheknowledge-basedeconomy.Inmorespecificterms,theapplication

ofinformationtotheeconomyisbestexemplifiedinthenetworkingofcommunication,orthe

so-calledNeteconomy.ThisNetreferstothecomputernetworkofsatellites,opticfibres,cablesand

isthenetworkingbetweenbusinessesandtheircustomers.Theotheristhenetworkingbetween

individualbusinesses,ortheregionalandevenglobalnetworkingbetweenindustrialproduction

andscientificresearch.Internetshoppingbelongstothefirstaspect.

当我门步入新世纪的时候,人类社会正开始由工业经济向知识型经济转变。具体地说，

经济中信息的应用主要是反映在通讯的网络化，也就是所谓的网络经济。该网络就是指山卫

星、光纤、电缆和电话线路将世界各个角落连接在一起的电脑网络。只要用鼠标一点，在地

球另一端的信息马上就会以每秒钟绕地球七周半的惊人速度传输到你的电脑屏幕上。网络化

大致可分成两个方面:其一是企业与客户之间的网络化，另外一个则是企业间的网络化，或者

是工业生产和科学研究之间的地区性甚至全球性的网络化。网上购物就属于第一个方面。

goesbeyondthatofconnectingbusinesses.Therehavebeenreportsofsimultaneousconsultation

外研版高中英语必修4教案

ofdoctorsfromallovertheworldontheInternet.Theseareearlyexamplesofhigh-level

networking.

从长远来看，网上购物仅仅是低层次的网络化，未必会成为最主要的趋向。毕竟大多数商

品并不适合网上购物。此外，如果大家都在网上一购物，那么成千上万的购物中心该怎么办呢？

所以说，网络化的第二个方面将更加重要，它的重要性远远超过了商务联络。媒介曾报道过

世界各地的医生利用国际互联网同时会诊。这些是高层次网络化的初期例子。

有人预测,新的电脑和网络技术的结合将会对未来工业产生巨大的影响。电子商'业的惊

人威力会使贸易发生巨变。彪马体育用品公司(Puma)在1992年已濒临破产。1993年起彪

马公司开始把生产、后勤和销售分散到全世界80个电脑联网企业，结果.业绩斐然。彪马从一

只病猫变成一头真正的猛兽。其原因就是企业内部和企业之间的电子网络极大地提高了生

产、规划、信息收集以及数据交换的效率。由于业务迅速合理化，生产数量得到了提高，而同

时成本也随之降低。
