Evelyn Berezin, a computer pioneer who built and marketed the first computerized word processor, died on Saturday in Manhattan. She was 93.

創建了第一臺計算機化文字處理機並把它推向市場的計算機產業先驅伊芙琳·貝利辛於週六在曼哈頓去世,享年93歲。

In an age when computers were in their infancy and few women were involved in their development, Ms. Berezin not only designed the first true word processor; in 1969, she was also a founder and the president of the Redactron Corporation, a tech start-up that was the first company exclusively engaged in manufacturing and selling the revolutionary machines.

在計算機處於發展初始階段且幾乎沒有女性參與計算機研發的年代,貝利辛女士不僅設計了第一臺真正的文字處理機,而且她還於1969年成爲Redactron公司的創始人兼總裁。Redactron公司是一家技術型初創企業,也是第一家專業從事生產和銷售這種創新性機器的公司。

Ms. Berezin called her computer the Data Secretary. The device had 13 semiconductor chips, some of which Ms. Berezin designed, and programmable logic to drive its word-processing functions.

貝利辛女士稱她的計算機爲數據祕書。該設備裝有13種半導體芯片,其中有部分芯片是貝利辛女士設計的,而且其編程邏輯是爲了驅動其文字處理功能。

Later versions of Redactron word processors came with monitor screens for text, separate printers, greater memory caches, smaller consoles , faster processing speeds and more programmed features to smooth the writing and editing tasks.

Redactron文字處理機的新版本增加了文本顯示屏,分離了打印機,擁有更大的內存、更小的操作檯、更快的處理速度以及更程序化的功能,可以更順利地處理寫作和編輯任務。

Ms. Berezin was inducted into the Women in Technology International Hall of Fame in 2011.

2011年貝利辛女士入選國際技術女性名人堂。

Ms. Berezin held nine computer-related patents. Her Data Secretary is on display at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, Calif.

貝利辛女士有9項與計算機有關的專利。她的數據祕書還在加州山景城計算機歷史博物館中公開展出。

As is often the case with labor-saving devices, the advent of her word processor played out in unpredictable ways — making secretarial work easier for a time.

就像其他節省勞動力的機器一樣,她的文字處理機以一種不可預知的方式登場,而且曾一度使祕書工作更容易一些。
