System Software is the one that is responsible for operating a computer hardware. Application software is useless without the system software.
There are three categories of system software. System Control Program, System Support Program and System Development Program. They are somehow self explanatory.
First, System Control Program from the word itself, it is the one that controls the use of hardware, software and data resources of a computer. Operating System is an example of it.
Then System Support Program is the one that supports the operations, management, and user's of a computer system. An example of it is the Antivirus.
Lastly is the System Development Program. It helps users to develop information processing programs.
After the system software, we proceeded to the Application Software. Application software is define as any program we used on a computer, whether it is a game, a Microsoft office, a notepad, paint, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and so many to mention.
I also encountered the types of computers. I am really lucky because somehow it is only a recall for me.
The first type of computer are the supercomputers. They are somehow expensive for they are made for a specific function. They are used for scientific and military work. They are also the fastest computer.
Next is the mainframe computer. It is not as expensive as the supercomputers. They are commonly used by the large corporations. It allows the information to be shared to other computers within the corporation.
Minicomputers are also know as the midrange computers. They are cheaper than the mainframe computers.
Next are the microcomputers. Also know as the personal computers. These are commonly found in our own houses. These are used by one person at a time.
Lastly would be the mobile devices.

ReplyDeleteToday, many people use various types of applications that work in cloud computing and in my opinion this is the future for such solutions. I am also very happy that I use grapeup.com - cloudboostr because it is thanks to this solution that my access to the business application is much faster and more secure.
