Consider the professions related to the computer. The list is quite extensive. listing absolutely everything is simply useless. Instead, we will describe the most popular and promising ones. After all, this is the only way you can choose something that is really interesting, and even brings a good income and read career growth. Let's list the main professions related to computers.
System Administrator
Let's start with the most common option. The first profession on our list is Who is this? What does he do? Let's try to find out.
The system administrator is the so-called master of computers. He is at the top of our list. After all, many professions related to computers, as a rule, include the duties of system administration. What does this include?
The system administrator must monitor the integrity and safety of operating systems, install programs and other useful software, protect the computer from viruses, install drivers, connect equipment ... In general, everything related to fixing and setting up a computer is the responsibility of the system administrator. Earnings usually depend on a person's skills. In some regions, such masters receive from 50,000 rubles. very rare. The average system administrator is 25-30 thousand. What other professions are there related to computers?
Programmer
The second on our list is the master programmer. Recently, a rather promising profession that brings not so little income. Programmers are people who compose and write programs for a computer.
Of course, it is the writing of special codes and software development that is the main responsibility of such people. Unlike a system administrator, a programmer must have great skills. True, in fact, as a rule, the first and second have a common "package of knowledge". That is, a programmer can work as a system administrator, and a system administrator as a programmer.
The profession is particularly intense and energy intensive. You will have to puzzle over writing code more than once, and then torment yourself with checking for errors in it. If you are a persistent and diligent person, as well as brave (do not fear difficulties), then you can try your luck. A programmer, as a rule, gets more than a system administrator, about 35-40 thousand rubles. Let's think about what other professions are related to computers.
Designer
The third place on our list is occupied by designers. Probably, many have been familiar with this profession for a long time. Once upon a time, designers worked without computers. All sketches and sketches were made on ordinary sheets of paper with pens and pencils. But as soon as the professions related to the computer appeared, designers quickly found themselves using this machine.
The work of these specialists is no different from the old, "pre-computer" era. The person still has to sketch, model, paint and present their designs. Only it has become easier to work now, because for all this there are their own programs that will help you cope with any task in one account. The main thing is to know the device of this or that application.
The computer professions don't end there. But the conversation with the designers is not quite over yet. After all, with the advent of computers, many branches in the profession have emerged. So, now there are 3D designers (modeling three-dimensional figures), web designers (developing pages, more precisely, their appearance), interior designers, and so on. All of these professions are quite creative and profitable. A good designer can get about 40,000 rubles a month.
Writer
What other professions are there related to the computer? We have already considered the most popular options. But there are a few more.
Of course, if you plan to work at the computer, then you can start writing. Writing is another profession that has become easier with the advent of computers. After all, writing behind this machine has become convenient and simple. Here you do not have to check spelling and punctuation yourself, you can quickly erase what you did not like, rewrite the sentence, and also edit what you wrote in a few seconds.
If you write really well, then there will be no problem. But many people usually create in their free time from their main work, because it does not bring very quick income. We'll have to wait a while until they find out about you.
Rewriter / copywriter
What professions are computer related? Of course, now almost any position can be attributed to this category. Only indirectly. Now we will find out with you two more that have appeared relatively recently. They gained particular popularity with the spread of the Internet among ordinary users.
We are talking about the so-called copywriting and rewriting. The first term refers to the compilation of original personal articles, usually based on one's own practice and knowledge. The second is writing equally original texts based on a rewritten article, that is, something like an original copy of what has already been written.
These professions have practically nothing to do with writing. Unless writers and copywriters with rewriters write on the computer. The first ones create works of art, fiction, write books. And the second and third are articles. As a rule, they are used for paid placement on the World Wide Web. The income of a rewriter and copywriter depends on his professionalism, as well as on his portfolio. Particularly successful users can earn by sitting at home and working 3-4 hours a day, about 50,000 rubles. But for this, you will first have to make a lot of efforts.
Now let's take a look at the name of a profession related to a computer, but not related to the previous options.
Secretary
Next, we will get to know you with such a position as a secretary. She, like a designer, is known to everyone and everyone, and for a very long time. Only with the advent of computers has it become easier to some extent.
The point is that secretaries now work mainly at the computer. Printing documents, drawing up reports and summary sheets, filling out sending mail, registering new customers - all this is done very quickly and easily thanks to computers. In Russia, this profession is not considered promising or generating huge incomes. However, working as a secretary means having a permanent job. Salaries, as a rule, range from 15,000 rubles.
Accountant
Let's continue to study the professions associated with working on a computer. Next on our list is, of course, an accountant. It is a popular profession that has not only evolved with the advent of computers, but also become much easier.
The accountant fills out statements, maintains reports, draws up various certificates and submits to the tax office all the necessary papers for the functioning of the company. We can say that this is a profession associated mostly with paperwork. Only now everything is facilitated by the presence of documents on the computer. A good accountant receives from 20,000 rubles.
Photographer
We have covered almost all popular and widespread computer-related professions. Now let's move on, perhaps, to the one that the majority of the population is engaged in at the amateur level. Of course, we are talking about
The thing is that the processing and printing of images has now become a merit of computers. Therefore, photography is the most popular and versatile hobby that people can do. It only needs a professional camera and photography skills. No diplomas or certificates. Of course, their presence will give huge advantages, but the absence of them will not particularly affect your reputation.
What does a photographer do? Shoots, edits photos, and also prints them. is welcome here. Want to try? Do not be afraid, everything will definitely work out. A good photographer is capable of making decent money a month. Wedding photographers, for example, earn from 20,000 rubles per day of shooting. Professional and famous - from 50,000.
Human activities associated with the processes of receiving, transforming, accumulating and transmitting information are called information activities.
Currently, computers are used to process not only numbers, but other types of information as well. Thanks to this, computers have firmly entered the life of a modern person, are widely used in production, design and construction work, business and many other industries.
But to modern technical meansworking with information includes not only computers, but also other devices that ensure its transmission, processing and storage:
· Network equipment: modems, cables, network adapters.
· Analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters.
· Digital photo and video cameras, digital voice recorders.
· Recording devices (CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-RW, etc.).
· Printing equipment.
· Digital music studios.
· Medical equipment for ultrasound and tomography;
· Scanners in archives, libraries, shops, exams and polling stations;
· TV tuners for feeding a TV signal to a computer.
· Plotters and various printers.
· Multimedia projectors.
· Flash memory, also used in players and cameras.
· Mobile phones.
In addition to personal computers, there are powerful computing systems for solving complex scientific, technical and defense problems, processing huge databases, and the operation of telecommunication networks (Internet):
· Multiprocessor systems for parallel data processing (control of complex technological processes).
· Servers in the global computer network that manage work and store a huge amount of information.
· Special computers for design and construction work (design of aircraft and spaceships, bridges and buildings, etc.).
All of the above technical means and systems are designed to work with information resources (IR) in various sectors of the economy.
There are several main areas where information activities are related to computers.
1. Scientific research. Calculations and calculations are an indispensable element of those scientific research where it is required, on the basis of an experiment, to construct a hypothesis about the patterns manifested in it. Special automated systems for scientific research are being created. Computational operations on a computer are performed not only by mathematicians, mechanics, physicists, astronomers, but also by specialists in the field of economics. Literary critics use special programs for analyzing the texts of works, creating various dictionaries.
2. Creation of new products. Some stages of creating new products can be automated, and therefore, it is not surprising that a computer has found a place here too. Computer-aided design (CAD) systems are used in all design and engineering organizations. After all, it turned out to be possible to design an integrated circuit thanks to the computer itself and its software. The designer enters the technical task into the CAD, and the use of databases, calculation blocks, expert systems, and a simulator allows obtaining technical documentation, according to which prototypes will be made.
3. Management. By the time computers were created, the theory of automatic control was a well-developed exact engineering science, so it became possible to use computers for control purposes. Automatic control systems (ACS) can control processes for which mathematical models and methods for their solution have been developed. Machine tools with numerical control (CNC) have a specialized computer with an operator panel, display and keyboard, as well as a control program. It indicates everything necessary to make a part from the workpiece, the dimensions and shape of which are determined by the drawing. Automatic washing machines, microwave ovens, sewing and embroidery machines, etc., operate according to special programs.
4. Information systems (IS), databases (DB). The basis of the IS is a databank, which stores a large volume of information about any area of \u200b\u200bhuman knowledge. This can be information about the infrastructure of the city (transport, map, phones, organizations, etc.). The use of the Internet makes information from IP available to a large number of users. At present, schools in Moscow gain access to the Internet and can use information from various ISs to carry out projects in various fields (geography, history, literature, biology, ecology, etc.). IS or DB of institutions, schools, libraries, etc. allow you to perform searches, queries, changes and additions quickly, with a small amount of errors and human resources.
5. Training. Computers are widely used in education. One of the most important goals of creating a system of educational portals is to explicitly and with the participation of specialists to form a professional zone and mechanisms for searching for high-quality educational information.
6. Computers in the publishing industry. The computer can be used by the author already at the very first stages of creating literary, journalistic and other works. Then the editor of the publishing house works with this text.
7. Automated workstation (AWP). Currently, this is an employee's place equipped with a computer and other technical means (printer, scanner, audio speakers or headphones, microphone, video camera, electron microscope, etc.). The AWS can also have access to the Internet, which allows you to quickly find the necessary information in the field of its activity, receive and send e-mails, make purchases on the Internet, order e-tickets, etc.
Information resources that provide some professional activity are concentrated in arrays of documents, which in the modern version are prepared for automatic processing and are stored in databases (DB), knowledge bases (KB), which, in turn, are part of some information system.
Let us try in the following table to describe the types of professional informational human activity and the accompanying technical and informational means.
Human information activity- This is an activity associated with the processes of receiving, transforming, accumulating and transmitting information.
All people in their lives are engaged in informational activities (receive letters, read books, store photo and video archives, talk on the phone, solve problems, solve crosswords, etc.); for many she is professional.
For thousands of years, material objects have been the objects of human labor. All tools from the stone ax to the first steam engine, electric motor or lathe were associated with processing substances, use and transformation energy... At the same time, humanity has always had to solve problems of management, accumulation, processing and transmission of information, experience, knowledge. There were groups of people whose profession was connected exclusively with information activities... In ancient times, these were, for example, priests, chroniclers, then scientists, etc.
With the development of society, the circle of people whose professional activities were associated with the processing and accumulation of information constantly expanded. The volume of human knowledge and experience was constantly growing, and with it the number of books, manuscripts and other written documents. There was a need to create special repositories of these documents - libraries, archives... The information contained in books and other documents had to not only be stored, but organized, systematized. This is how library classifiers, subject and alphabetical catalogs and other means of organizing books and documents, professions appeared librarian, archivist.
As a result of scientific and technological progress, mankind has created more and more new means and methods of collecting (recording sound information using a microphone, camera, movie camera), storage (paper, photographic film, gramophone records, magnetic tape), transferring information (telephone, telegraph, radio, television, satellites). But the most important thing in information processes - processing and purposeful transformation of information - was carried out until recently exclusively human.
At the same time, the constant improvement of technology and production has led to a sharp increase in the amount of information that a person has to operate in the process of his professional activity.
In the second half of the 20th century, the release of scientific and technical printed materials became like a growing avalanche. Neither an individual, nor special organizations created to process the incoming information, could not only master the entire information flow, but also quickly find in it what was required for certain works. There was a paradoxical situation when, in order to obtain the necessary information, it was easier and cheaper to conduct the research again than to find it in the scientific literature. The paper-based information system has outgrown its capabilities. Ripe information crisis, i.e., the situation when the information flow has increased so much that it became unavailable for processing in an acceptable time.
We can say that we who live at the turn of the centuries and millennia are lucky to witness tremendous changes on our home planet. And the result of these changes was accelerating the emergence of knowledge... The flow of information literally falls on us. If the first doubling of the total amount of knowledge on Earth occurred during the period from the turn of our era to 1750, then the second doubling happened already in 150 years, by the beginning of the twentieth century, and the third - in 50 years - by 1950.
Subsequently, the volume of knowledge doubled at an even more rapid pace: until 1970 - for 10 years, after 1970 - every 5 years, and since 1991 - annually! In fact, we live in a society where the power of any country is determined by its information potential and the ability to quickly provide necessary and reliable information to everyone who is interested in it.
The way out of this situation was the invention of electronic computers (computers) and personal computers, the creation of a telecommunication infrastructure (databases and networks of various types).
But modern technical means of working with information include not only computers, but also other devices that ensure its transmission, processing and storage:
· Network equipment: modems, cables, network adapters;
· Analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters;
· Digital photo and video cameras, digital voice recorders;
· Recording devices (CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-RW, etc.);
· Printing equipment;
· Digital music studios;
· Medical equipment for ultrasound and tomography;
· Scanners in archives, libraries, shops, exams and polling stations;
· TV tuners for feeding a TV signal to a computer;
· Plotters and various printers;
· Multimedia projectors;
· Flash memory, also used in players and cameras;
· mobile phones.
In addition to personal computers, there are powerful computing systems for solving complex scientific, technical and defense problems, processing huge databases, and the operation of telecommunication networks (Internet):
· Multiprocessor systems for parallel data processing (control of complex technological processes);
· Servers in the global computer network that manage work and store a huge amount of information;
· Special computers for design and construction work (design of aircraft and spaceships, bridges and buildings, etc.).
All the listed technical means and systems are designed to work with information resources (IR) in various sectors of the economy. Nowadays, computers have firmly entered the life of a modern person, and are widely used in manufacturing, design and construction, business and many other industries.
Computers in production are used at all stages: from the construction of individual parts of the product, its design, to assembly and sale. The computer-aided manufacturing system (CAD) allows you to create drawings, immediately getting a general view of the object, control machines for the manufacture of parts. A flexible manufacturing system (FPS) allows you to quickly respond to changes in the market situation, quickly expand or curtail the production of a product or replace it with another. The ease of transferring the conveyor to the release of new products makes it possible to produce many different product models. Computers allow you to quickly process information from various sensors, including from automated security, from temperature sensors to regulate energy consumption for heating, from ATMs that record customers' money consumption, from a complex tomograph system that allows you to "see" the internal structure of human organs and correctly place diagnosis.
A computer is on the desktop of a specialist in any profession. It allows you to connect with any part of the world, connect to the funds of large libraries without leaving your home, use powerful information systems - encyclopedias, learn new sciences and acquire various skills with the help of training programs and simulators. He helps the fashion designer to design patterns, the publisher to compose text and illustrations, the artist to create new paintings, and the composer to music. An expensive experiment can be completely calculated and simulated on a computer.
The development of methods and methods for presenting information, technology for solving problems using computers, has become an important aspect of the activities of people in many professions. There are several main areas where information activities are related to computers.

Introduction.
Computers and information systems have become part of our life and made it much easier. Most people, especially young people, cannot imagine their life without this miracle machine. More recently, having a computer in the family was considered a luxury. Nowadays, everything has changed so much that it is not surprising that there are several computing devices in every cell of society.
What can be in common between the profession of a teacher and an accountant, a lawyer and a designer, a police officer and a cashier, a doctor and a sound engineer? Initially, it seems that these professions have nothing in common, since we are talking about completely different professions. If we remember that we live in the age of global informatization, then all these professions are united by the fact that they use a computer.
What makes the same device so important to do so many different jobs? We have asked this question and will try to answer it within the framework of our project.
Object of study:professions that use a computer in their activities.
Subject of study: for what and how exactly adults use the computer in their profession.
Goal: To develop and create a video clip "Computer and Profession". Find out exactly how the computer helps representatives of various professions.
Tasks:
- Conduct and analyze a sociological survey among parents.
- Study the types of professions that use computers in their activities.
- Choose the most popular professions.
- Choose the most convenient form for presenting research data.
- Develop and create a video clip.
Research methods:sociological survey, conversation, interview, analysis, research.
The practical significance of the work:Create a video clip "Profession and Computer", which will help schoolchildren understand the degree of penetration of computers into various professions. To interest and motivate for a deep study of computer technology at school.
The project skills acquired during the implementation of this project will help students in their further studies.
1. Analysis of a sociological survey.
Each student in the future will have to decide on the choice of a profession. In the rapidly developing world of information technology, the percentage of computer penetration into the profession is only increasing every year.
A questionnaire was conducted among parents of primary and middle school students: "Do you use a computer in your work?" Out of 72 parents surveyed, 53 use computer technology in their work.
Parents use a computer in such professions as: teacher, salesman, technologist, storekeeper, receptionist, operator, designer, boss, economist and many others.
To the question: "Can you imagine your work without computer equipment?", The parents answered:
No, my whole job is to fill in the data using a computer.
No, it facilitates the search for information thousands of times, makes it possible to communicate with people living far away.
No, all information about employees is entered into the system.
No, a computer is needed when working with documents, when holding events.
We decided to find out in the course of work on the project in which field of professional activity a computer is needed and how exactly adults use it in their work.
2. Types of professions and computer.
There are a large number of fields of activity, ranging from medicine to art.We have identified the following main areas of activity in society and created a scheme (Appendix 1):
- social sphere - the work of teachers, doctors, librarians, organizers of circles, sports sections;
- science and higher education - employees of research institutes and higher educational institutions;
- culture and art - writers, painters, actors, directors, composers;
- law enforcement and army;
- banks;
- production activity - work at different levels in the field of production of consumer products, tools, means of transportation, that is, activities in agriculture, industry, construction, utilities, trade;
- public authorities at all levels.
Through interviews, surveys and information from various sources, we found out exactly how the computer is used in these areas.
Computers in education.
The use of computer technologies in the educational process makes it possible to use psychological and pedagogical developments in pedagogical practice, which make it possible to intensify the educational process, to implement the ideas of developing education. The possibilities of computer technologies as a tool of human activity and a fundamentally new means of teaching have led to the emergence of new methods and organizational forms of training and their faster implementation in the educational process.
Computers in medicine.
Thanks to computers, doctors can diagnose diseases with amazing efficiency. The tomograph effectively conducts a preventive examination, gives an accurate image of the internal organs of a person. In the intensive care unit, the patient is "connected" to a computer that monitors the heart rate: if it suddenly decreases to a dangerous level, the computer will immediately inform the doctor or nurse about it. Medical data banks allow doctors to keep abreast of the latest scientific and practical advances. Computer networks are used to send messages about donor organs. Computers are used to train healthcare workers in practical skills. This time, the computer acts as a patient who needs immediate help. Computers store patient histories in their memory.
Computers in the field of culture and art.
In the hands of the artist, the computer becomes a drawing tool. Illustrators, designers, cartoonists, filmmakers believe that computing provides them with new opportunities in their creative endeavors. With tools such as a plotter, graphics tablet, and light pen, artists create multi-color drawings, graphs, maps, and diagrams.
Recently, more and more professional writers are using word processors to improve the quality and speed up their work. Journalists, technical writers, screenwriters, textbook authors, and many others use computers to work with texts. A word processor facilitates editing and proofreading of texts. It frees you from the need to retype texts - saving time. The use of special programs helps to identify and correct spelling and syntax errors.
Computers in law enforcement.
The ability of computers to store large amounts of information is used by law enforcement agencies to create a file of criminal activity. Electronic databanks with relevant information are readily available to state and regional investigative agencies throughout the country. For example, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has a nationwide data bank known as the National Forensic Information Center. With the help of a computer, through small crimes it is possible to “reach” large ones. In forensic laboratories, computers help to analyze the substances found at the crime scene. The conclusions of the computer expert are often decisive in the evidence in the case under consideration.
Bank operations.
Performing financial transactions with a home personal computer is just one of its possible uses in banking. Powerful computing systems allow you to perform a large number of operations, including processing checks, registering changes to each deposit, accepting and issuing deposits, arranging a loan and transferring deposits from one account to another or from bank to bank. ATMs allow customers not to stand in long queues at the bank, to take money from the account when the bank is closed.
Computers in trade.
When shoppers put their purchases on the counter, the cashier passes each of them through an optical scanner that reads the universal code on the purchase. The price of this product is stored in the computer's memory and displayed on a small screen so that the buyer can see the value of his purchase. As soon as all the selected items have passed through the optical scanning device, the computer immediately displays the total value of the purchased items. In this case, the final settlement with customers is much faster than using a cash register.
The use of a computer not only makes it possible to significantly speed up the settlement with customers, but also makes it possible to keep under control the amount of goods sold and available in stock at all times.
Computers in production.
Computers are used for a wide variety of industrial tasks. For example, a dispatcher at a large plant has at his disposal an automated control system that ensures the uninterrupted operation of various units. Computers are also used to monitor temperature and pressure in various manufacturing processes. When the increase and decrease in temperature or pressure exceeds the permissible rate, the computer immediately sends a signal to the regulating device, which automatically restores the required conditions.
Various types of work in factories, such as assembly lines, involve repetitive operations such as tightening bolts or painting parts.
Computers in government bodies.
The secretary of almost any institution, when preparing reports and letters, processes texts. The office apparatus uses a personal computer to display spreadsheets and graphics on the display screen. With the help of computer systems, the introduction of documentation is carried out, e-mail and communication with data banks are provided. Computer networks connect different users located in the same institution or located in different regions of the country.
It can be concluded that computers and information technologies have become firmly established in our life and in the professions of various directions and fields of activity.
3. The practical part.
Stage I.
According to the survey, most parents use a computer in their work. Let's define a list of professions for interviewing.
- Teacher, teacher, trainer, head of the circle.
- Accountant.
- Secretary.
- Musical worker.
- Psychologist.
- Medical worker.
- Cashier, seller.
- Security guard, policeman.
- A bank employee.
- Librarian.
- State employee.
Stage II. Collection of video fragments.
For a visual presentation and presentation of the essence of our project, we decided to prepare a video clip "Computer and professions". We have compiled interview questions. We asked questions to representatives of various professions, both in our school and in the workplaces of parents and specialists in various fields of activity in our city. All fragments of the interview were recorded on a digital camera.
Stage III. Video clip creation.
Windows Movie Maker is one of the easiest and most affordable editors to create your own videos and presentations. This application is distributed free of charge and hasrelatively user-friendly interface.
- Select the item "Create a project". After changing the operating mode of the program, go to the "File" menu again. We select the item "Import to collections" and wait for the launch of the explorer. Select the video files to be included in the project. Add each file to the working project one by one.
- Now press the button "Timeline display". This allowed us to quickly synchronize the layout of the images. We moved each file in turn to the “Video” category located at the bottom of the program window.
- Click the link "View video transitions". Select the transition you like - view it by double-clicking on it - copy and paste through 1-2 video fragments.
- Adding titles. Click the next menu item "Creating titles and titles". The title menu will open. Click on the first item of this menu and enter the name in the first field. Then we will change the animation of the title by clicking on the corresponding link. Choose a suitable animation from a fairly large list, click the "Change font and text color" link and adjust the design.
- In the same way, choosing the last item of the menu "Create titles and credits", create credits at the end of the movie.
- In the "File" menu and selected the "Save movie file" option. We waited for the launch of the new menu, chose the file format and indicated the location of its storage. We checked the received movie by launching it with an available player.
Stage IV. Presentation of the video.
After preparing the video clip, we will present our work at the school conference, as well as place the material on the school's website.
Conclusion.
As a result of working on the project, we found out that computers have become a part of modern life and professions of adults. Sooner or later, all students will have to decide on the choice of a profession and special attention should be paid to the study of information technology at school, since practically no profession is conceivable without computer technology and computer technology.
We have studied the spheres of professional activity and identified a list of professions for interviewing. A representative of each of our chosen professions confirmed the importance of the computer in their professional activities. After all, a computer is an assistant in counting, processing large amounts of information, storing databases, monitoring, searching for the necessary information and performing a large number of other functions.
To compile and present the data obtained during the work on the project, we chose the programWindows Movie Maker. The program interface is intuitive to the user. Therefore, based on our project, students can create their own video clips on other topics.

INTRODUCTION
Currently, a large place in our life is assigned to various devices designed to create comfort in everyday life, facilitate work, etc. One of these devices is a computer.
The word "computer" means "calculator", i.e. device for computing. This is due to the fact that the first computers were created as devices for computing, roughly speaking, as improved, automatic adding machines. The fundamental difference between computers and adding machines and other calculating devices was that the adding machines could perform only individual computational operations (addition, subtraction, division, multiplication), and computers allow complex sequences of computational operations to be carried out without human intervention according to a predetermined instruction - a program. In addition, computers contain memory to store data, intermediate and final results of calculations.
Although computers were created for numerical calculations, it soon turned out that they could process other types of information as well. To process various information on a computer, you must have the means to convert the desired type of information into numerical form and vice versa. Now, with the help of computers, not only numerical calculations are carried out, but also books are prepared for printing, drawings, films, music are created, factories and spaceships are controlled, etc. Computers have become universal means of information processing.
HISTORY OF COMPUTER DEVELOPMENT
In the first half of the 19th century, the English mathematician Babidge tried to build a universal computing device, i.e. computer. It was he who first thought of the fact that a computer should contain memory and be controlled by a program.
In the 40s of the XX century. several groups of researchers at once repeated Babidge's attempt based on the technique of that time.
The first of these was the German engineer Konrad Zuse, who in 1941 built a small computer based on several electro-mechanical relays. But due to the war, Zuse's works were not published.
And in the USA in 1943, at one of the enterprises of the IBM firm, the American G. Eiken created a more powerful computer called "Mark-1". It made it possible to perform calculations hundreds of times faster than manually.
Since the relays work very slowly, starting in 1943 a team of specialists in the USA began to design a computer called "ENIAC" based on vacuum tubes. The computer they created ran a thousand times faster than the Mark-1. However, most of the time it was idle, because to enter the program, it took several hours or days to connect the wires, and the calculations took place within a few minutes or seconds.
A huge step forward was the creation of microprocessors that do not exceed a few square centimeters in size (1970). It is thanks to them that we see the computer as it is, i.e. small processing unit and monitor.
SCOPES OF APPLICATION OF COMPUTERS.
At present, the worldwide computer network InterNet has received wide publicity.
InterNet is a worldwide collection of computer networks that connects millions of computers. Its embryo was the distributed network ARPAnet, which was created by order of the US Department of Defense to communicate with each other computers of this Department.
The developed principles for organizing this network were so successful that many other organizations (especially universities and government agencies) began to create their own networks on the same principles.
These networks began to unite with each other, forming a single network. This unified network became known as InterNet.
Until the mid-90s, InterNet. was used mainly for sending emails and various information from one user to another, etc.
It was not easy to use these opportunities, therefore, until 1993-94, InterNet was used only in the scientific (primarily university) environment.
Around 1993-94, the situation at InterNet changed radically. The reason for this was the emergence of a new service on the Internet - the World Wide Web, literally translated - the World Wide Web (abbreviated as WWW or Web). The ease of use of this service has led to the fact that the most massive user - housewives and businessmen, teachers and students, etc.
The next area of \u200b\u200bapplication of computers was the industrial industry. The creation of highly reliable control systems made it possible to automate the processes of manufacturing various goods, equipment, assembly lines in the automotive industry everywhere. Automation processes have reduced human participation in the production process to a minimum.
One of the most expensive and time-consuming uses of computers is in the military. From the very beginning of the creation of computer systems, this area was
in a slightly different way. In it, the computer has always acted as a weapon, or at least as a weapon control tool. As a result, control and guidance systems for missile complexes, ground and underwater weapons appeared. Systems for the detection, tracking and destruction of a potential enemy have appeared.
In everyday life, on the basis of computer technology, so-called things with limited intelligence have appeared. Almost all household appliances of the latest generation have this kind of intelligence: washing machines, televisions, VCRs, audio equipment, microwave ovens, etc.
The computers themselves have undergone significant changes. Various devices have been added that allow you to hear music, watch videos, etc. One of the latest advances in consumer personal computers has been the creation of an audio text editor. If earlier the text was entered mainly from the keyboard, then after the mass release of this editor, the text can be entered by voice.
Thanks to the speed of computers, electronic translators have appeared, which, moreover, have a memory for tens of thousands of words and expressions. Such a translator can translate texts and expressions within a few seconds, facilitating communication between people speaking different languages.
In the field of law enforcement, the computer has made it much easier to identify and find criminals. If earlier identification of a criminal by fingerprints took from several hours to several weeks, now, thanks to computerization and the creation of a database, this operation takes only a few seconds or minutes.
In the film industry, the computer has made it possible to create effects that have never been thought of before. The famous film "Jurassic Park" is 80% CGI, the same can be said about many films and cartoons.
CONCLUSION
In this essay, not all areas of computer use are listed. In the future, more and more space will most likely be assigned to the computer in our life. I would like to note that learning to work with a computer is a very big task, especially in our time in our country. Much attention is paid to this in Kazakhstan. Recently, the city has proposed a program to computerize secondary schools and higher education institutions, but although it has found a strong response among the population, with the pace of introduction of the program and such funding, its implementation threatens to be delayed for a long time.
This work reflected the most popular areas of computer use. I tried to describe the InterNet network in more detail, since using it you can get different information, communicate with different users. Those. this network is a means of communication and education not only for students but also for ordinary people, employees, etc. This network is the most realistic example of the introduction of computers into everyday life. other areas are either highly technological, requiring special knowledge, or simply inaccessible.
