UNICOMP (UCMP) TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE The Year 2000 problem has been extensively reported in the media in recent months. The Gartner Group estimates the cost of the Year 2000 problem to industry and government at between $300-600 billion. Misunderstandings and misconceptions abound as to the causes and extents of this problem. Please read on for a brief explanation of the Year 2000 problem and what Unibol can do to help resolve this critical issue. What exactly is the Year 2000 problem? The widespread use of two digit year formats is the root of the problem. This has come about for a number of reasons of which the main ones are listed below: 1. Lack of global date standards. 2. Computing resource restraints. 3. User demand. 4. An industry wide lack of foresight. The two digit year format assumes that all dates are in the 20th Century. Once 21st Century dates are added into the equation many computer applications will either stop working altogether or will start giving erroneous results. To the computer, "00" comes before "99". The future becomes history. Birth dates overtake retirement dates. Interest calculations go haywire. Orders disappear from order books. Credit cards expire before they are issued. In fact, industry estimates suggest that 90% of all business applications are likely to fail by 1999 unless this problem is fixed.
