Summary

The amount of computer technology that surrounds us in everyday life is getting larger. The use of conventional computers contained in phones, laptops and other common devices is well known. There are machines whose use is not already known. These may include the supercomputing center, computer cluster or other system designed for massive parallelization or acceleration of specific calculations.
Among other computers that surround us daily are small control systems, which are now in many cases equipped with computers with the operating system. These miniature computers are often equipped with interfaces that are not known from personal computers and allow easy incorporation into a computer controlled system.
