If supported by further investigation, the findings raise as many questions as they answer, including the possibility that some of the attacks came from China but not necessarily from the Chinese government, or even from Chinese sources.
Tracing the attacks further back, to an elite Chinese university and a vocational school, is a breakthrough in a difficult task. Evidence acquired by a United States military contractor that faced the same attacks as Google has even led investigators to suspect a link to a specific computer science class, taught by a Ukrainian professor at the vocational school.
The revelations were shared by the contractor at a meeting of computer security specialists.
The Chinese schools involved are Shanghai Jiaotong University and the Lanxiang Vocational School, according to several people with knowledge of the investigation who asked for anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the inquiry.
Jiaotong has one of China’s top computer science programs. Just a few weeks ago its students won an international computer programming competition organized by I.B.M. — the “Battle of the Brains” — beating out Stanford and other top-flight universities.
Lanxiang, in east China’s Shandong Province, is a huge vocational school that was established with military support and trains some computer scientists for the military. The school’s computer network is operated by a company with close ties to Baidu, the dominant search engine in China and a competitor of Google.

美国《纽约时报》19日报道说,追踪到黑客攻击是来自上海交通大学和山东蓝翔高等技工学校内的电脑。
座落于中国东部山东省的蓝翔学校,是一所规模很大的职业学校。这所学校背后有中国军方的支持,为军队培养计算机科学方面的人才。它的计算机网络又一家与百度有密切联系的公司运作。百度是一家搜索引擎公司,在中国市场占据统治地位,也是谷歌在华的竞争对手。
蓝翔啊……难道这是一个披着职校外衣,实际上由军方资助的超级黑客训练营?
