现在,符合Internet标准已经逐步成为网络协作和通信的基本要求,“互操作性”也成为一个时髦名词,尽管其中存在着许多误区。主要的误解是“互操作性”和“互换性”。对于厂商来说,互操作性的意思是他们的产品可以与其它厂商的类似产品协调工作。但对于许多用户来说,互操作性意味着可以互换性——可以使用一个厂商的产品与另一个厂商的类似产品互换。对于用户来说互换性是开放系统的终极目标。但对于厂商来说确不是如此。
Nowadays, conforming to Internet standards has gradually become the basic requirement for network collaboration and communication, and “interoperability” has also become a fashionable term, although there are many misunderstandings. The main misunderstandings are “interoperability” and “interchangeability.” For manufacturers, interoperability means that their products can work in coordination with similar products from other vendors. But for many users, interoperability means that they can be interchangeable - they can use one vendor’s product to exchange with another vendor’s similar product. For users, interchangeability is the ultimate goal of open systems. However, this is not the case for manufacturers.
