| abstract | - The company originated in 1911 as the Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company (CTR) through the consolidation of The Tabulating Machine Company, the International Time Recording Company, the Computing Scale Company and the Bundy Manufacturing Company.[5][6] CTR was renamed "International Business Machines" in 1924, a name which Thomas J. Watson first used for a CTR Canadian subsidiary.[7] The initialism IBM followed. In 1949, Watson created IBM World Trade Corporation, a subsidiary of IBM focused on foreign operations.[8] Securities analysts nicknamed the company Big Blue for its size and common use of the color in products, packaging and its logo.[9] In 2012, Fortune ranked IBM the second largest U.S. firm in terms of number of employees (435,000 worldwide),[10] the fourth largest in terms of market capitalization,[11] the ninth most profitable,[12] and the nineteenth largest firm in terms of revenue.[13] Globally, the company was ranked the 31st largest in terms of revenue by Forbes for 2011.[14][15] Other rankings for 2011/2012 include №1 company for leaders (Fortune), №1 green company in the United States (Newsweek), №2 best global brand (Interbrand), №2 most respected company (Barron's), №5 most admired company (Fortune), and №18 most innovative company (Fast Company).[16] IBM has 12 research laboratories worldwide, bundled into IBM Research. As of 2013 the company held the record for most patents generated by a business for 22 consecutive years.[17] Its employees have garnered five Nobel Prizes, six Turing Awards, ten National Medals of Technology and five National Medals of Science.[18] Notable company inventions or developments include the automated teller machine (ATM), the floppy disk, the hard disk drive, the magnetic stripe card, the relational database, the Universal Product Code (UPC), the financial swap, the Fortran programming language, SABRE airline reservation system, dynamic random-access memory (DRAM), copper wiring in semiconductors, the silicon-on-insulator (SOI) semiconductor manufacturing process and Watson artificial intelligence. IBM has constantly evolved since its inception. Over the past decade, it has steadily shifted its business mix by exiting commoditizing markets such as PCs, hard disk drives and DRAMs and focusing on higher-value, more profitable markets such as business intelligence, data analytics, business continuity, security, cloud computing, virtualization and green solutions,[19][20][21] resulting in a higher quality revenue stream and higher profit margins. IBM's operating margin expanded from 16.8% in 2004 to 24.3% in 2013, and net profit margins expanded from 9.0% in 2004 to 16.5% in 2013.[22] IBM acquired PwC's consulting business (2002), SPSS (2009) and Kenexa (2012), also spinning off companies like printer manufacturer Lexmark (1991), and selling off to Lenovo its personal computer product line (2005), plus its x86-based server businesses (2014). Also in 2014, IBM announced that it would go "fabless" by offloading IBM Micro Electronics semiconductor manufacturing to GlobalFoundries, a leader in advanced technology manufacturing, citing that semiconductor manufacturing is a capital-intensive business which is challenging to operate without scale.[23] This transition had progressed as of early 2015.

AFL-CIO, 04/05/2006 Labor: IBM agreed to pay $65 million in a class action overtime lawsuit filed in 2006. The settlement may go to as many as 32,000 current and former employees previously classified as exempt from overtime pay. IBM stated that it settled the lawsuit to avoid an expensive legal battle and claims no wrongdoing in the case. Wall Street Journal, 11/22/2006 In September 2004 IBM agreed to settle all but two claims in a lawsuit accusing the company of having a pension plan that discriminated against older workers, in exchange for a limit of $1.4 billion on its potential liability. Under the terms of the settlement, current and former IBM employees in the suit would be eligible to receive an incremental pension benefit worth an estimated $300 million. Ethical Corporation, 09/30/2004 Environment and product safety: In 2002 residents in Endicott NY discovered that a 1979 chemical spill from a former IBM plant had been polluting at least 470 homes or businesses with toxic and carcinogenic chemicals. The chemicals in the ground include trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, trichloroethane and methylene chloride. By 2004, IBM discovered measurable levels of toxicity, proving that the 1979 cleanup was inadequate. Since that time, the company has spent $40 million in clean up costs to remediate soil and groundwater. A study of cancer rates in the area revealed an elevated level of testicular cancer, kidney cancer, and heart birth defects. Sierra Club, 09/14/2006 IBM is the target of a series of lawsuit brought about by former workers who claim that they were exposed to cancer-causing chemicals. Forty-five plaintiffs from the company's San Jose facility brought suit against the company, citing personal injury and wrongful death. The plaintiffs are surviving family members of workers who have died of cancer or former workers suffering from cancer.The company is accused of not taking the necessary precautions for employees who worked in these rooms, and of failing to conduct the tests. As of February 2004, the number of lawsuits hovered around 200. Many cases have been settled confidentially out of court, including over 50 in June 2004, but others' outcome remain pending. [Atlanta Journal, 06/24/2004] In May 2001 IBM settled with two plaintiffs who had claimed that exposure to toxic fumes at the company's Fishkill, NY facility caused birth defects in their son. The details of the settlement , which asked for $40 million in damages, remained confidential. The settlement was part of a larger on-going dispute between the company and 220 of its employees in San Jose, New York and Vermont over exposure to toxics in various IBM facilities (see related Health & Safety items). Poughkeepsie Journal, 01/23/2003 As of March 2007, IBM is listed as sharing responsibility for 26 Superfund sites. IBM shares "multi-party responsibility," meaning additional companies are responsible for both the pollution and the clean-up of a site. Center for Public Integrity, 03/01/2007 IBM was one of the companies included in Greenpeace International’s “E-waste Hall of Shame.” Greenpeace International discovered IBM products in their visit to a Chinese scrap yard. IBM, along with Apple, Panasonic, Toshiba, and Acer, has not committed to remove chemicals from products or be responsible for the safe recycling and responsible disposal of their products. Greenpeace, 06/20/2006 Human rights: In November 2002 a lawsuit was filed against IBM and 19 other companies for reparations because of alleged support to the apartheid regime that ruled South Africa until 1994. The case, which was filed by the Khulumani Support Group, seeks compensatory and punitive damages for more than 32,000 South Africans hurt by apartheid. The suit charges IBM with supplying technology for white South African authorities to create "passbooks" for the black population that were used to control their movement, employment, and residence.Common Dreams Newswire, 11/14/2002 Location Headquarters One Old Orchard Rd.

IBM was recognized as one of the "Top 20 Best Workplaces for Commuters" by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 2005. This was to recognize the Fortune 500 companies that provided their employees with excellent commuter benefits that helped reduce traffic and air pollution. However, the birthplace of IBM, Endicott, suffered IBM's pollution for decades. IBM used liquid cleaning agents in its circuit board assembly operation for more than two decades, and six spills and leaks incidents were recorded, including one recorded 1979 leak of 4,100 gallons from an underground tank. These left behind volatile organic compounds in the town's soil and aquifer. Trace elements of volatile organic compounds have been identified in the Endicott’s drinking water, but the levels are within regulatory limits. Also, from 1980, IBM has pumped out 78,000 gallons of chemicals, including trichloroethane, Freon, benzene and perchloroethene to the air and allegedly caused several cancer cases among the villagers. IBM Endicott has been identified by the Department of Environmental Conservation as the major source of pollution, though traces of contaminants from a local dry cleaner and other polluters were also found. Despite the amount of pollutant, state health officials cannot say whether air or water pollution in Endicott has actually caused any health problems. Village officials say tests show that the water is safe to drink.

A complicated program, and a lot of data involved a lot of cards, which had to be kept in order to work properly. After cards came the use of keyboards to program and input data, and printers to display the data that was output. The following innovation was the use of television monitors to display data. I.B.M. began to lose its predominance in the computer field with the advent of the personal computer or PC. Apple, Atari,Commodore, Dell, Compaq, Hewlet Packard (HP) and other companies began to produce much smaller and affordable computers which could be used in the home or by small businesses. In 2004 IBM sold its personal computer division to a Chinese company.

It achieved technical leadership in the computer industry over other early entrants, such as Sperry Rand, in the mid-1950's and thereafter pioneered the development of many electronic data processing products. . . ." It "is both a hardware and a software company. On the hardware side, IBM manufactures and licenses, among other things, Intel-compatible PCs.

В мае 1914 года генеральным управляющим компании C-T-R стал Томас Уотсон (Thomas Watson, 17.02.1874—19.06.1956). Распространенное прозвище компании — Big Blue, что можно перевести с английского как «большой синий» или «голубой гигант». Существует несколько версий относительно этого прозвища. По одной из них название произошло от мэйнфреймов, поставляемых компанией в 1950-х — 1960-х годах. Эти мэйнфреймы были размером с комнату и имели голубую окраску. По другой теории прозвище просто ссылается на логотип компании. Ещё одна версия утверждает, что это название идёт от бывшего дресс-кода компании, который требовал от многих своих работников ношения рубашек и костюмов голубого цвета. Также есть версия[источник?]Категория:Наука:Статьи с утверждениями без источников, что название появилось после показа по американскому ТВ в начале 1980-х годов ролика, рекламирующего персональные компьютеры, которые по сюжету были проворнее и побеждали гиганта одетого в голубые одежды.
