English to Italian: Computer bugs General field: Tech/Engineering Detailed field: Computers (general)
Source text - English Errors in computer programs are called "bugs". They may be benign and not affect the usefulness of the program, or have only subtle effects. But in some cases, they may cause the program or the entire system to "hang", becoming unresponsive to input such as mouse clicks or keystrokes, to completely fail, or to crash. Otherwise benign bugs may sometimes be harnessed for malicious intent by an unscrupulous user writing an exploit, code designed to take advantage of a bug and disrupt a computer's proper execution. Bugs are usually not the fault of the computer. Since computers merely execute the instructions they are given, bugs are nearly always the result of programmer error or an oversight made in the program's design. Admiral Grace Hopper, an American computer scientist and developer of the first compiler, is credited for having first used the term "bugs" in computing after a dead moth was found shorting a relay in the Harvard Mark II computer in September 1947.
Translation - Italian Gli errori nei programmi informatici sono chiamati "bug". Essi possono non essere nocivi e non intaccare l'utilità del programma, oppure avere solo degli effetti minimi. In alcuni casi, però, è possibile che un bug conduca il programma o anche l'intero sistema a rimanere "in sospeso", cioè inerte agli input immessi cliccando col mouse o premendo sui tasti, oppure a smettere di funzionare o a bloccarsi. Diversamente, i bug non nocivi possono talvolta essere sfruttati con intenzioni dolose da utenti privi di scrupoli che scrivono un "exploit", un codice che mira a utilizzare un bug a proprio vantaggio in modo da poter arrestare il corretto funzionamento di un computer. Di solito i bug non sono causati da un difetto dell'elaboratore. Siccome i computer non fanno altro che eseguire le istruzioni ricevute, i bug sono quasi sempre determinati da un errore del programmatore o da una disattenzione avvenuta durante la progettazione del software. L'uso del termine "bug", ovvero "insetto" nell'ambito dell'elaborazione dei dati, viene attribuito per primo all'ammiraglio Grace Hopper, esperta informatica che ha sviluppato il primo compilatore, dopo il ritrovamento di una falena morta che aveva mandato in corto circuito un relè nel computer Harvard Mark II nel settembre del 1947.
