Computer has made the universe like a global village. Due to their speed, accuracy, memory and other characteristics, computers are used in all spheres of life. These machines are used on a large scale in Banking Sector, Railways, Insurance Companies, Hospitals, Business Houses, Universities, Transportation, Space technology, Engineering, and Science etc. Some of the benefits are as follows.

EDUCATIONAL ASPECTS
Computer proved itself a revolutionary machine for the welfare of student of today. Now a student can make an easy research work, make his assignments, highlights his objectives of goal and make his abilities to be progressive. Computers have become an integral part of education at levels primary or higher. Computers have enriched the learning process at various levels of education. At higher level, students of Engineering and Science can derive benefits from computers. By learning computer programs they can solve their problems with the aid of computers. Computers solve mathematical equations and other scientific problems very quickly. Besides, a part of education, schools, colleges and universities are using computers for various utilities viz. pay rolls, time-tables etc.

COMPUTERIZATION IN INDUSTRIES
Computers are being used on a large scale in all industries larger or smaller. Computers control the production efficiency in various industries. In steel industry, the accurate cutting of steel sheets into desired length is controlled by computer systems. Computers are responsible for controlling machines. The maintenance of temperature, pressure to a controlled level. The chemical plants are controlled by computers more effectively than to control it manually. In drilling and rolling, computers play a crucial role. Computers can monitor and regulate the process of refining in refineries without human intervention. The computers can detect the faults in gas pipe lines and other systems and help to bring the process back into normal.

BENEFITS IN BANKING SECTOR


Banks are among the large organizations to invest heavily in computers. Today, the banking in urban areas is totally dependent on the computers. The computerization in the banking sector is necessary because of massive volume of different types of transactions.

can obtain printed statements of their accounts. Automatic Teller Machines have been installed in the branch premises of various banks.

COMPUTERIZATION IN MEDICAL SCIENCES


Computers are used in the various fields of medicines viz. Hospital Administration, Monitoring the patients condition, diagnosis of a diseases, medical research, laboratories, experimentation etc. In the diagnosis of Cancer, Heart disease etc. computers play an important role and can monitor the patients condition. Scanning instruments are attached to the patients and the attending doctor can notify the condition of the patient and start the right treatment. The computers can assist in prescribing the correct dosage after monitoring the disease. These machines can effectively control the blood pressure, heart beats, and level of glucose in blood. In hospitals computers keep the records of indoor and outdoor patients. Moreover, students of medical sciences can now check the live operations carrying on in the different hospitals through internet.

TRANSPORTATION
Computer is a source for traffic department to check any violence in the road moving vehicles, so they can control the traffic. Today, without computers, working in the Railway Departments, Airlines, Shipping has become impossible. Railway time tables and other timing schedules are prepared with the assistance of computers. The Railway traffic has been increased to a very large extent and it has become impossible to control this traffic without the aid of computer. Similarly computers are increasingly used in Airlines to control air traffic, reservation and cancellation of tickets.

IN INSURANCE COMPANIES
The insurance companies require their data of their customers to be processed efficiently and carefully. Computer has a remarkable achievement in this regard. The requirements of computers in this sector are similar to those in banking sector. A large number of files relating to customers policies are to be updated. Calculation of bonus, premium, and interest is to be done on a large scale. With the introduction of computers in this sector, the burden on the employees has been reduced and statements of accounts are ready in no time.

SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY


In this sector computer has proved itself more useful than any other resource or machine. Today different and enormous softwares are produced to make science easy. These softwares are used in planning, designing, sketching, making models and processing the engineering data.
