Modern world is scrammed with variety of digital computers.
Almost all every-day using devices contain digital chips. A cellular
phone is controlled by microprocessor. A microcontroller runs washing
in washing machine. An MP3 and DVD players, a TV set, a refrigerator -
all of them contain computers or themselves are computers. This is a
sign of progress in microelectronic. Computers become more powerful,
more numerous and they lose in size and weight every month. But
computers itself are not only product of progress. They also drive
progress forward. Since middle of XX century when information technology
has been planted to semiconductor soil computers influence on science
and on whole civilization more and more. At the beginning building-size
computers served only to most important science projects and military
tasks. But computers have been improved year by year. They have become
cheaper and more compact. The number of tasks they can be utilized for
has been increasing. But the real revolution in computer using begun
when microprocessor was invented and personal computer architecture was
introduced. That made computers so cheap that they have been able to
appear in each office and in each home. In this way digital machines
ceased to be a strategic resource and started to work for middle and
small businesses.
Today it is difficult to imagine an office where there is no a
single computer. There is very much job for them and they do a lot.
In many areas they can work much well than people. They can calculate
faster and accurately. And they never mistake. They can store and process
information. They can search for information very fast in very huge
catalogs. In all of these areas they replace people to let them do work
computers can not handle. Usually this work is not involved with some
calculations and base on such human sense as intuition. But calculation
power of processor permanently grows. The capacity of memory is being
constantly increased. So list of areas where computers can be used is
being expanded fast. And in this field is one of the major goals of our
company. We glad to create software to help our clients to use computer
power in the best way. And we hope our software and our work can free
humans from routine job computer is better on and allow them to realize
their potential in more suitable areas. And at the end make our client's
business more profitable and competitive.
Although this is the main goal of our company to help our customer we
also see forward to the future. Everybody sees the progress in computer
hardware, the growing of calculation power, and increasing memory capacity.
So it seems that future computers are going to have fantastic power. And
sometime they will be powerful enough to be as smart as live creatures.
Of course computers will not have such complex nervous system as human or
a mammal's brain. At least at the beginning of this real revolution. It
seems they will be as smart as insects but this is enough to replace people
in some field they can not be replaced now. Such type of computers will
appear not tomorrow and not in the next year but they will appear and
now is the right time to start perspective projects and invent and
research mechanisms that will be used as a base for future thinking
machines. This is second priority goal of our company - be first in
research in thinking machinery areas and build the future today.
