Julius E. Pitrap menemukan timbangan komputer pada tahun 1885. Alexander Dey menemukan dial recorder tahun 1888. Herman Hollerith menemukan Electric Tabulating Machine 1989 dan pada tahun yang sama Williard Bundy menemukan alat untuk mengukur waktu kerja karyawan. Pada 16 Juni 1911, teknologi-teknologi tersebut dan perusahaan yang memilikinya digabungkan oleh Charles Ranlett Flint dan membentuk Computing Tabulating Recording Company (CTR). Perusahaan yang berbasis di New York ini memiliki 1.300 karyawan dan area perkantoran serta pabrik di Endicott dan Binghamton, New York; Dayton, Ohio; Detroit, Michigan; Washington, D.C.; dan Toronto, Ontario. CTR memproduksi dan menjual berbagai macam jenis mesin mulai dari timbangan komersial hingga pengukur waktu kerja. Pada tahun 1914, Flint merekrut Thomas J. Watson, Sr., dari National Cash Register Company, untuk membantunya memimpin perusahaan. Watson menciptakan slogan, ―THINK‖, yang segera menjadi mantra bagi karyawan CTR. Dalam waktu 11 bulan setelah bergabung, Watson menjadi presiden dari CTR. Perusahaan memfokuskan diri pada penyediaan solusi penghitungan dalam skala besar untuk bisnis. Selama empat tahun pertama kepemimpinannya, Watson sukses meningkatkan pendapatan hingga lebih dari dua kali lipat dan mencapai $9 juta. Ia juga sukses mengembangkan sayap ke Eropa, Amerika Selatan, Asia, dan Australia. Pada 14 Februari 1924, CTR berganti nama menjadi International Business Machines Corporation (IBM).

  • Barcodes and Rfids
    Barcodes and RFIDs Martin Dodge and Rob Kitchin For: Globalization in Practice (edited by Nigel Thrift, Adam Tickell and Steve Woolgar) Introduction One of the key phenomena of the globalization of commerce has been the internationalisation of goods and brands. A set of diverse practices and processes, including the transformation of transport infrastructure and logistics and the virtualisation of money, have enabled both producers (e.g., goods manufacturers) and sellers (e.g., wholesalers, supermarkets) to massively extend supply chains, to globally expand their markets, and to increase their turnover and profits. A key technology in improving the efficiency and productivity of logistical organisation and operation has been development of sophisticated identification systems that overcome the anonymity of manufactured products by assigning unique numerical identifiers – digital thumbprints - to material products. These identification systems allow products to be effectively and unambiguously processed, shipped and traced through complex logistical networks, to monitor sales, aid account management, refine supply chains and inform marketing strategies. Conceptually they have two distinct components, first an agreed allocation of unique id code numbers and, second, an agreed media to physical store the code. The most obvious manifestation of this technology for product identification and tracking are the parallel black and white printed stripes of barcodes. Barcodes Barcodes, visible on nearly all, retail products are the physical manifestation of UPCs (Universal Product Code) – a code that uniquely identifies a product regardless of location or language. The original UPC concept can be traced back to 1940s, but gained widespread acceptance and usage in the 1970s with the development of a UPC standard by a group of U.S.

  • Tips for Marketing Fresh Produce to Retail Grocers: Using PLU and UPC Codes a Guide for Producers
    Working with Local Fresh Produce in Retail Settings Tips for Marketing Fresh Produce to Retail Grocers: Using PLU and UPC Codes A Guide for Producers What is a PLU? What is a UPC? PLU and UPC codes help retailers identify or scan your product into their cash register system. Being knowledgeable about the differences in these labels in advance of approaching a retailer may help you get your foot in the door. These codes are not only a necessity for some retailers, but also a marketing tool for your farm, because they carry information about your farm and products along the supply chain. This informational sheet contains information adapted from the Produce Marketing Association. NC Growing Together, a CEFS-led initiative, is funded by the United States Department of Agriculture, National Institute of Food and Agriculture, grant #2012-68004-20363 www.ncgrowingtogether.org PLU and UPC Codes PLU Codes_________________________________________________________________ A PLU code, or price look up code, is a 4 or 5 digit code that is unique to a particular produce item; based upon the commodity, the variety and the size group; and will typically appear on a small sticker that is applied to the individual piece of fresh produce. These codes are standard across the produce industry and in all retail grocers. They help cashiers identify the variety and therefore the price of a product. For example, a hydroponic/greenhouse tomato has the PLU 4799, while a slicing tomato has the PLU 4805. The retailer may charge $2.99 per lb for a hydroponic, but $1.49 per lb for a slicing tomato.
