    International Business Machines


    Corporation (IBM) is an
    American multinational information
    technology company headquartered
    in Armonk, New York, with operations
    in over 170 countries. The company
    began in 1911, founded in Endicott,
    New York, as the Computing-
    Tabulating-Recording
    Company (CTR) and was renamed
    "International Business Machines" in
    1924.
    IBM produces and sells computer hardware, middleware and software, and
    provides hosting and consulting services in areas ranging from mainframe
    computers to nanotechnology. IBM is also a major research organization, holding the
    record for most U.S. patents generated by a business (as of 2019) for 26 consecutive
    years.[5] Inventions by IBM include the automated teller machine (ATM), the floppy disk,
    the hard disk drive, the magnetic stripe card, the relational database, the SQL
    programming language, the UPC barcode, and dynamic random-access
    memory (DRAM). The IBM mainframe, exemplified by the System/360, was the
    dominant computing platform during the 1960s and 1970s.

    Products and services:

    IBM has a large and diverse portfolio of products and services. As of 2016, these
    offerings fall into the categories of cloud computing, Artificial
    intelligence, commerce, data and analytics, Internet of Things (IoT), IT
    infrastructure, mobile, and security.
    IBM also hosts the industry-wide cloud computing
    and mobile technologies conference
    InterConnect each year.
    Hardware designed by IBM for these categories
    include IBM's POWER microprocessors, which
    are employed inside many console gaming
    systems, including Xbox 360, PlayStation 3,
    and Nintendo's Wii U. IBM Secure Blue is encryption hardware that can be built into
    microprocessors, and in 2014, the company revealed TrueNorth,
    a neuromorphic CMOS integrated circuit and announced a $3 billion investment over
    the following five years to design a neural chip that mimics the human brain, with 10
    billion neurons and 100 trillion synapses, but that uses just 1 kilowatt of power

    Revenue:
    For the fiscal year 2017, IBM reported earnings of US$5.7 billion, with an annual
    revenue of US$79.1 billion, a decline of 1.0% over the previous fiscal cycle. IBM's
    shares traded at over $125 per share, and its market capitalization was valued at over
    US$113.9 billion in September 2018. IBM ranked No. 34 on the 2018 Fortune
    500 rankings of the largest United States corporations by total revenue.

    In 2018 IBM generated a revenue ofUS$ 79.8 billion ranking second among the top IT
    gaints.

    Research:
    Research has been a part of IBM since its founding, and its organized
    efforts trace their roots back to 1945, when the Watson Scientific
    Computing Laboratory was founded at Columbia University in New
    York City, converting a renovated fraternity house on Manhattan's
    West Side into IBM's first laboratory. Now, IBM Research constitutes
    the largest industrial research organization in the world, with 12 labs
    on 6 continents. IBM Research is headquartered at the Thomas J.
    Watson Research Center in New York, and facilities include
    the Almaden lab in California, Austin lab in Texas, Australia
    lab in Melbourne, Brazil lab in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, China
    lab in Beijing and Shanghai, Ireland lab in Dublin, Haifa
    lab in Israel, India lab in Delhi and Bangalore, Tokyo lab, Zurich
    lab and Africa lab in Nairobi.
    In terms of investment, IBM's R&D expenditure totals several billion dollars each year.
    In 2012, that expenditure was approximately US$6.9 billion. Recent allocations have
    included $1 billion to create a business unit for Watson in 2014, and $3 billion to create
    a next-gen semiconductor along with $4 billion towards growing the company's
    "strategic imperatives" (cloud, analytics, mobile, security, social) in 2015.
