It forms a conceptual base for information processing; the existence of a corresponding algorithm makes automatic information processing possible. The theory of algorithms (together with mathematical logic ) forms the the oretical basis for modern computer science (see [Sem Us 86]; this article is called 'Mathematical Logic in Computer Science and Computing Practice' and in its title mathematical logic is understood in a broad sense including the theory of algorithms). However, not everyone realizes that the word 'algorithm' includes a transformed toponym Khorezm. Algorithms were named after a great sci entist of medieval East, is al-Khwarizmi (where al-Khwarizmi means 'from Khorezm').
