Software

This week of study was very interesting, and we've studied very hard I think.. Even forgot to tell hi to everyone :D. Hi everybody in this post I would like to talk about the 3rd  week of study. We have studied a lot in these week, and the first thing what we learnt about Software.

-The intangible part of a computer.

-It tells what a computer supposed to carry out, and how to do it.

-It drives the hardware.

-A collection of computer programs together with the related data. 

Software divided in to three groups..

•System Software

•Application Software

•Programming Language

There are also Software Layers..

Application Layers-Uppermost software layer                                                                                     Operating System-OS receives order from the user via application program

Device Drivers-are very low level instructions to a device (e.g., the printer, or the hard drive)

System Software-The part that typically involved is the BIOS – Basic Input Output System. It provides a small library of basic input/output functions used to operate and control the peripheral devices. 

After discussed about these, we've talked about the operating systems. such as :

1. Stand-alone OS – a complete OS on a computer

                - DOS, Windows, Mac OS, UNIX, Linux

2. Server OS – an OS that supports a network

                - Windows NT, UNIX, Linux, Solaris, NetWare

3. Embedded OS – built-in on a ROM chip mainly for mobile devices.

                - Windows CE, Palm OS, BlackBerry, Google Android

In session two we started study about Programming Language. Its A set of words, abbreviations, and symbols that enables a programmer to communicate instructions to a computer. There are two types of programming language 1st low-level language 2nd high level language. And in the lecture we talked about the Third Generation language such as 

•       FORTAN                               C

•       COBOL                                 C++

•       BASIC                                   Java

•       Pascal                                    ActiveX

 Fourth Generation languages-Fourth-generation languages (4GLs) are even easier to use than 3GLs. Also known as non-procedural languages. 

  

Fifth Generation languages-(5GLs) are an issue of debate in the programming community – some programmers cannot agree that they even exist. 

 After studying all those topics we also studied about HLL language, Compiling, Interpreting , Translation and Comparison. I this week I have learnt many many useful things, and I can say that this week of study was a bit difficult than other,, but anyway we enjoyed from classes )))
