Acronym for Year 2000

The "Year 2000" problem The problem dates back to the 1960s, when programmers wrote applications using a standard date format of DD/MM/YY to conserve then expensive storage space When 2000 arrives, the "2000" will be read by older computer systems as "00," potentially causing a complete system failure or producing incorrect calculations in time-sensitive programs

A common abbreviation for the Year 2000

Short for "Year 2000" (and keep in mind abriviations like that are why we got into trouble in the first place!) A hoax the computer industry put upon the rest of the world We got rich, and you were stuffing money in our pockets We are all happy, right? Mostly, people got caught being worried about how other people were doing their jobs, rather than doing their own jobs -Z- Zoo: The computer industry, except this defames the otherwise upstanding Zoo industry

Often used when describing the upgrade of computer systems that must acknowledge the new millennium for billing customers and for other purposes

The Year 2000 problem The inability of computer programs to correctly distinguish the century from a date that has only two year digits During the seventies and eighties, the turn of the century seemed so remote and memory/disk was so expensive that most programs stored only the last two digits of the years It is difficult to estimate how serious the "century meltdown" will be Although few programs written decades ago are still being used in their original form, blocks of code might have migrated to newer software, thereby trying to track all of them down seems impossible Even setting the computer's clock forward to 11: 59 PM December 31, 1999 and waiting to see what happens is only a partial solution if the computer relies on other systems over which you have no control such as customers' or suppliers' computers

Year 2000 Many systems, especially computers and equipment with embedded computer chips, are likely to fail on 01/01/2000 This is because such equipment stores years by the last 2 numbers (e g : 1999 = 99, 2000 = 00) and many computers, etc , are programmed to understand the year 00 to be 1900, etc See also MILLENNIUM BUG

An acronym for the Year 2000 Problem that involves three issues – two-digit date storage, leap year calculations and special meanings for dates

the year 2000 in the Gregorian calendar

The Y2K problem, also known as the millennium bug, has generated a great deal of hype Its cause if really quite simple: Y2K refers to the inability of some computers and computerized products to identify dates past 1999 Many programs and chips recognize only the last two digits of a year and assume that the first two are "19" Consequently, "99" is read as 1999 The problem arises when the year 2000 begins When "00" is read it may be identified as 1900 instead of 2000 This may cause computers and products containing computer chips to malfunction

Year 2000: A reference to the so-called "Millennium Bomb

The Year 2000

Abbreviation commonly used to refer to the Year 2000 computer problem

Often pertaining to year 2000 date conversion efforts

Shorthand for Year 2000

An abbreviation for Year 2000 The Y2K problem resulted from the use of two-digit year fields in computer software codes and silicon chip technology Because of this, the software or chip cannot recognize "00" as the year 2000 instead of 1900 or doesn't recognize it at all

Y2K bug

the millennium bug

Y2K bug

A defect in the code of a computer program caused when a year is represented by its last two digits only and the program interprets that year as falling inclusively between 1900 and 1999 instead of between 2000 and 2099. Also called millennium bug. or Year 2000 bug or millennium bug Potential problem in computers and computer networks at the beginning of the year 2000. Until the 1990s, most computer programs used only the last two digits to designate the year, the first two digits being fixed at

Y2K bug

As the year 2000 approached, many programs had to be partly rewritten or replaced to prevent interpretation of "00" as 1900 rather than 2000. It was feared that such a misreading would lead to software and hardware failures in computers used in such important areas as banking, utilities systems, government records, and so on, with the potential for widespread chaos on and following Jan. 1, 2000. Up to $200 billion may have been spent (half in the U.S.) to upgrade computers and application programs to be Y2K-compliant. Despite international alarm, few major failures occurred, partly because these measures were effective and partly because the likely incidence of failure was exaggerated
