It has innovated the use of punching cards as a way for computation. However, it was the entry of Thomas Watson Sr., in 1914 that started the expansion of the company internationally. By 1924, CTR was renamed to what is known today as the International Business Machines Company or IBM. In the 1950s, the company developed FORTRAN—the scientific language that is still widely used by scientists worldwide even up to this day; and RAMAC, the precursor of the modern day hard-drives. In the 1960s, the growth of the aviation industry and a coincidental meet with American Airlines has sparked a revolution in airline ticketing with SABRE—making way for online airline reservations that we know today.
