Extractions: The Status of Y2K Compliance in City Governments A 220-City Survey January, 1999 Executive Summary In November 1998, The U.S. Conference of Mayors asked cities across the country for information on the potential impact of year 2000 (Y2K) computer problems on their operations, and on the status of their efforts to address the problems before January 1, 2000. Information was obtained from 220 cities, all but three having populations of 30,000 or more. In summary: Ninety-seven percent of these cities have a citywide plan to address Y2K issues, and for three out of four, that plan was developed by in-house staff rather than by consultants or by other agencies. Asked how many of their computer applications would have to be repaired or replaced, 38 percent of the cities said 10 or fewer, 33 percent said between 11 and 50, 11 percent said between 51 and 100, and another 11 percent reported more than 100. One percent reported that no computer applications need repair or replacement.

The ACCC Y2K Plan The Right Format for Dates ... About the A3C Connection The ACCC Beat Everyone Let's Start with the Good News: The year 2000 Y2K problem is easy to describe and often simple to fix. It has three parts. Dates with Two-digit Years: The most common year 2000 problems result from software and data that does calculations on or was written with dates with two-digit years. Two-digit years have always worked in the past: subtract 1994 from 1998 or subtract 94 from 98 and you get the same thing. However, 2002-1998=4 isn't the same as 02-98=-96. Sorting on dates with two-digit years also fails 98 is clearly after 00, isn't it? The Year 2000 is a Leap Year: You probably know that every year divisible by 4 is a leap year. 2000 is divisible by 4, so it's a leap year, right? But there are two exceptions. Years ending in 00 (there's that old 00 cropping up again) aren't leap years. So the year 2000 isn't a leap year. But years divisible by 400 are leap years, which, finally, makes the year 2000 a leap year.

http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/yr2000/year2000.html

Extractions: See Reports of Y2K Problems FDA Home Page CDRH Home Page Search FDA Web Site Comments Introduction The "Y2K problem" concerned computers, computer chips and software that may not properly recognize or process dates after December 31, 1999. In addition there were certain other specific dates that may have been troublesome (such as February 29, 2000). Some medical devices and scientific research instruments have computers, computer chips or software integrated into them. The vast majority of medical devices functioned without any potential health or operational problem after December 31, 1999 . Some may have had a minor problem, such as displaying an incorrect indication for the year (for example, 00 instead of 2000), and these likely did not significantly affect a patients health. A very small number of medical devices encounterd a real problem because of the switch to the new millennium, unless they were corrected prior to being used after December 31, 1999. This web site provided information and guidance to medical device manufacturers, healthcare providers, researchers, and the public. The site included a searchable list of biomedical equipment and their Y2K compliance status. "Compliance", in this case, means that the device will function 100% as intended, in that the date change will not adversely affect the devices operation. The database allowed you to search for any specific item of biomedical equipment, and determine its compliance status, and the effect of a "non-compliance".

Extractions: Y2K bug was a clicking time bomb for all major computer applications. The computer and system application companies came out with year 2000 compliant operating systems and system software. IT companies around the world spent billions of dollars to go through their entire application source code to look for the Y2K bug and fix it. Almost everybody raced around to make themselves Y2K compliant before the fast approaching deadline. Finally when the big day came, many utilities and other companies switched off their main computers and put the backup computers on work. When the clock ticked Jan 1, 2000, no major problems were reported. Almost every bank worked fine, no major power outages were reported, airplanes still flew and the whole world went on with its normal life.

The belief was that because many old computers relied off of the last two digits of a year such as 99 for 1999, when the year 2000 came 2000 would set the computers to 00 causing the computer to think it was 1900.

Smith" Here at PCMH we educated our Biomedical Department about Year 2000 and they decided to test a ventilator that had been delivered that week. When they set up the ventilator for date and time (12/31/99 11:00) and let it tick-tock down, the venilator failed. When they called the manufacturer, Hamilton, the vendor was able to instruct our Biomed technicians to power down the unit, remove the cover, and flip some internal switch, reset and power the machine up again. The ventilator worked fine at this point. Obviously this vendor had at least made some preparation for year 2000. Other issues were how would we have known about the hidden switch to set, and how many other biomedical vendors haven't even heard of Year 2000 yet? Frightening indeed. Rick A. Smith

Shop or Compare Prices Although the Y2K problem came and went in January of 2000, we have saved this article as an archived editon of HowStuffWorks because of its historical value. Published at the beginning of 1999 at the height of the Y2K panic in the media, this article is noteworthy for the sentence, "In reality, nothing will happen." In retrospect, that sentence was completely correct, but in January 1999 that was definitely not the picture the mainstream media was painting. HowStuffWorks received quite a bit of flaming email for making this simple prediction. You will be hearing about the "Year 2000" problem constantly in the news this year. And you will hear a lot of conflicting information in the process. There is also a good bit of "end of the world" rhetoric floating around on the Internet. What should you believe?

Your computer vs. the year 2000. Even if all of your computer hardware and softwareare year 2000 compliant, you have to make sure all of your practices are.

Extractions: Your Computer vs. the Year 2000 No major Y2K problems have been reported at the University. If you believe you have been hit by the Y2K bug, please call the HelpDesk at 348-2435. The Year 2000 problem spans the entire information technology industry. It arises from the nearly universal practice over the years of using two-digits rather than four to designate the calendar year (e.g. "98" instead of "1998"). While many people believe that it is confined to large corporations with older computers, everyone who uses anything computerized needs to be aware of the implications. Any Year 2000 compliance effort has to focus on the following: Hardware Basically every computer has some built-in function to determine the date. In PC's this is called the Real Time Clock (RTC), but they are not the only machines that could be affected by date functions in the hardware. Software Even if your hardware is Year 2000 compliant, you can still run into problems with your software. This includes everything from operating systems to spreadsheet programs. (Is your computer still displaying a two digit year?
