Computers make it possible to process information with great speed, accuracy and reliability. They do this by systematically performing calculations, storing vast quantities of data and sorting, manipulating, and otherwise transforming data into more meaningful forms. Such transformations can be used for text editing or word processing, arithmetical calculations, data processing, the control of manufacturing processes, and a variety of problem solving task.

The specialized jobs performed by computers are nearly countless: helping air traffic controllers track airplanes over major airports; monitoring body temperature, blood pressure and other body measurements of patients in surgery or in intensive care; planning and measuring the effectiveness of agricultural programs, keeping tract of reservations for airline seats; hotel rooms, rental automobiles, and theater seats; scheduling productions; and keeping records of financial transactions, such as account receivable, accounts payable, inventories, orders, checking accounts, billing procedures, and stock market trading.

Moreover, computers help laboratory scientist in a variety of ways including mathematical and statistical analysis, and modeling and simulating complex phenomena.
