发帖数: 7 | 1 A new Internet-Draft about the interconnection and the interoperability of
different cloud-office applications has successfully been submitted by Mr.
Zhun Guo, the general manager of Shanghai Biaoma IT Co., LTD, and posted to
the IETF repository. IETF is one of two largest international internet
standard organizations. It is named as draft-guo-idoca-with-the-html-file-
format. Please make comments on it. This draft has provided solutions to
make users among different cloud-office websites have the same experience as
those in a single website when a document was collaborated. It will be a
new milestone of the interconnection of cloud-office applications in the
office automation history. It is supported or paid attention to by many
existing mainstream cloud-office software providers such as Google Drive,
Microsoft Office 365, IBM Docs, Cisco WebEx, Zoho, ThinkFree, Adobe Acrobat,
FengOffice，Evernote，Slide Share and Libre-office-on-line.
It is well-known that cloud-office applications are being used by countless
users in our highly informationized times. Nowadays, the social statistics,
the meeting minutes, or the digital office cannot do without the office
software. The market of office software dominated by Microsoft Office for 20
years is in a great change because of the development of network
technologies of open source, cloud computing, HTML5, WebSocket and the rise
of those cloud offices such as Google Drive. Office applications are
currently developing in a way of simple operation and nuanced function.
Those large and all-inclusive office applications keep abreast of those
small office applications that focus on certain functional extension. And,
with the continuous increase of market demand for office software, many
competitors are joining in this market. Traditional office software
providers such as Microsoft, Cisco, IBM, Kingsoft WPS and Founder are
wrestling one another, but Microsoft has always been dominant. However, in
the field of online office or cloud office, some companies, such as Google,
Zoho and Apple, have already gotten their own shares in the field of online
office or cloud office because, with the help of technologies of cloud
computing, they can meet their users’ demand that they can log in their
cloud system anytime and anywhere. According to the introduction about the
cloud-office by Mr. Zhun Guo, the proposer of Internet-Draft of the
interconnection of cloud-office applications, those existing cloud-office
applications work wonderfully on the collaboration in a single website.
However, the transmission of documents across the website has to be done by
email nowadays. Therefore, it is necessary to integrate some transport
protocols (such as HTTP or SPDY） similar to SMTP into cloud-office
applications in order to make functions of the cloud-office website perfect.
In his opinion, those traditional office applications installed in PC have
a problem with interoperability because different providers have different
file formats (for example, ODF, OOXML and UOF). As for cloud-office
applications, however, such problem does not exist because different
providers adopt a common web file format, HTML. If the interconnection comes
true, cloud-office applications will completely replace the traditional
email and office software. Moreover, it is of great advantage for the rapid
popularity of cloud-office applications.
Liu Peng, the secretary-general of COSOFT and the former leader of expert
group in the document field of national 863 plans, pointed out: “The human
always has an ideal to break the barriers and eliminate the fence in order
to conveniently communicate one another. There definitely exists information
gap among different cloud-office websites. We must do our best to eliminate
the gap. Nevertheless, the technology level of the interconnection of cloud
-office applications must also be improved.”
It is said that the highest realm of the cloud-office is that employees are
no longer bound in the office but can log on the cloud system to do their
office work in the car, outdoor, at home, anywhere and anytime. Some experts
think that the one that get hold of the cloud-office application will have
a head start in the reshuffle of office ideas and office patterns. Google
and Microsoft, the old rivals, are protagonists in the wrestle for the “
cloud-office”. The one that has the head start will win the competition. | y*********2
发帖数: 7 | 2 This is really a good idea. Imagine it.Once this idea comes true, we will
not need to buy office software and to use email anymore. All applications
are moved into the clouds.We can do office work anytime and anywhere as long
as we have a browser and a cable line.What a amazing view. Please go on the
IETF website and search the key word "IDCOA" and then you can reach the
Internet Draft. Please make comments on it. |
