中国算盘与罗马算盘设计对比研究

Comparative Study on the Design of Chinese Abacus and Roman Abacus

中国算盘与罗马算盘是两个独立发展出来的计算工具,其历史、结构与示数方式、发展轨迹都存在着异同。文章以其目的统一性作为对比研究的基础,通过对算盘历史、结构与示数方式、发展轨迹进行对比研究,从其外在表现发掘内部蕴含的设计逻辑,即需求是设计动力,功能原理决定产品结构,设计需要因地制宜。

Chinese abacus and Roman abacus are two independently developed computational tools, There are similarities and differences in their history, structure, mode of indication and development path. With its unity of purpose as the basis of comparative study, through the comparative study of its history, structure and mode of indication and its development path. From it＇s external manifestations to explore the design logic contained in the internal, that is, demand is the design power, the functional principle determines the product structure, design needs to local conditions.
