    Transformations

    The company was founded on July 1, 1963, under state authority, under the name NIMIGÜSZI. In 1984, it came under the authority of the Ministry of Industry and was renamed System Organizational Company. This name was changed to Szenzor Organizational Company two years later. Until 1989, the company had 12 main departments. After the change of regime, 12 separate limited liability companies were formed from these, and the only one that survived was the Szenzor Computer Center, which still exists today.

    Interesting facts

    At the end of 1962, the first computing center equipped with a (then modern, transistorized) Western computer, the National-Elliott 803/B, was established at the Ministry of Heavy Industry (NIM), on his initiative and under his leadership.

    A compiler was developed for an updated version of the Elliott 803/B AUTOCODE programming language, under the intellectual guidance of Miklós Náray and Péter Szeredi.
