Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the profound economic, practical, and cultural effects of the "Year 2000 Problem," a global crisis triggered by the inadequacy of computer systems to accurately process the change from 1999 to 2000. It examines the origins of this issue, rooted in the early days of computing when memory was limited and data storage expensive, leading to widespread use of abbreviated date formats. The book highlights the vast scope of the problem and analyzes the potential consequences for industries including finance, transportation, government, and personal technology. Through expert testimonies and case studies, it explores the complexities of addressing the issue, including the enormous costs, technical challenges, and the need for coordinated efforts. The author emphasizes the importance of recognizing the Year 2000 Problem as a symptom of broader systemic issues in technology and management and advocates for proactive approaches to prevent similar crises in the future. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332282432_0
