forward with pride and confidence in my future profession. I’m sure that I have all the reasons to feel so because nowadays our world is measured, controlled and managed by computers. A great deal of the work force of most countries is engaged in creating, processing, storing, communicating and just working with information. There are laptops, notebooks, personal digital assistants and stationary computers or desk tops everywhere. They are used not only in banks and offices, government and business institutions. Now they are widely used in schools and private houses. In the modern world even children play electronic games on computers or play-stations.

Many corporations, companies and institutions have introduced local computer networks and information systems. They use them in their business, production, service and management. A computer is becoming an indispensable “must have” not only in business but in our everyday life. Moreover, computers and Internet enable us to pick up knowledge and to maintain a remote control at a great distance away.

Many new uses of computers that we cannot imagine at present will become commonplace in our information society.
