Four types of difference software in system software

     When talk about software, the most end-users always think that is the program that run on their computer to accomplish their specific tasks such as using word processors to create letters, documents, and reports but they don't know what exactly main important type of software that can allow them to use these application software(Word Processor...).  This blog will tell you detail about one type of software which is very important and run on our computer machine is  system software.  System Software is is not a single program. Rather it is a collection or a system of programs which can work with end users, application software, and computer hardware to handle the majority of technical details. For example, system software controls where a spreadsheet program is stored in memory, how commands are converted so that the system unit can process them, and where a completed document or file is saved. System Software is divided in to four types of  software are Operating System, Utilities, Device Driver and Language translators.
  • Operating System(OS) : coordinate computer resources, provide an interface between users and the computer, and run applications. For example: in order to use MS Office Word 2013, the end user need to install MS Office 2013, but in order to install MS Office 2013, the end-user need to install one type of Operating System(OS) such as window 7, 8 .. first.
  • Utilities: perform specific tasks related to managing computer resources. For example: check drive.
  • Device drivers:  are specialized programs that allow particular input or output devices to communicate with the rest of the computer system. For example: when you buy  a new printer, you need to install that printer driver on your computer to let you can print document from your computer.
  • Language translators convert the programming instructions written by programmers into a language that computers understand and process.

Five parts of information system

When you think about microcomputer(computer laptop, computer desktop, handheld, media center system unit, ), you always think that just a special assistant device can help you to produce many tasks such as document, entertainment, communicate by using monitor to view or can input by keyboard, but you rarely think of that microcomputer is as part of an information system. An Information System has five parts are people, procedures, software, hardware and data. but in some document there are six parts included another one is connectivity.

  1. People: is very important part in information system which work as two roles. One is creator or developer and another one is end-user. As you know when the requirement to use one system(Library System Management) occur, you will need the creator or developer to make for user, so this role act as creator or developer. Otherwise, The people who use the completed system which can operate follow their need called "end-user".
  2. Procedure: The rules or guidelines for people to follow when using software,hardware, and data. These procedures are typically documented in manuals written by computer specialists.
  3. Hardware: refer to all equipments that processes the data to create information includes the keyboard, mouse, monitor, system unit, and other devices. Hardware is controlled by software.
  4. Software: refer to program consists of the step-by-step instructions that tell the computer how to do its work. we can say that it's an another name of a program. The purpose of software is to convert data (unprocessed facts) into information (processed facts). For example, College survey program will convert all data which survey to let user know how many students will choose Computer Science, English, Business college when they continue at universe.
  5. Data: refer to raw, unprocessed facts, including text, numbers, images, and sounds.
      Almost all of today’s computer systems add an additional part to the information system. This part, called connectivity , typically uses the Internet and allows users to greatly expand the capability and usefulness of their information systems.

What is Application Software

After you have read the Software and System software in last contents, I hope that you're more clearly the difference definition and functions of them. So in this present, we discuss on what Application Software and what the role of it?.  Application software can be said that is end user software means that is used directly by end users such as MS Word 2013, Adobe Photoshop etc. These programs can be categorized as either basic or specialized applications. Basic applications are widely used in nearly all career areas. They are the kinds of programs you have to know to be considered computer competent. One of these basic applications is a browser to navigate, explore, Microsoft Office such as word, and find information on the Internet.For examples, the most of computer users always use internet explorer such as Internet explorer 7, Firefox etc.. Another one is Specialized applications include thousands of other programs that are more narrowly focused on specific disciplines and occupations. Some of the best known are graphics, audio, video, multimedia, Web authoring, artificial intelligence programs, and cell phone apps.


What is System Software

Have you heard about system software before? Have you ever wondered that, why does your computer can show beautiful user interface and very easy for you to select, configure or work on it? This one thing maybe you never think of. So for most normal users, they can not work without user interface like computer experts who can use commands instead. So in order to get user interface and let some hardware work properly,  your computer has to install system software

System Software is user interacts primarily with application software. System software enables the application software to interact with the computer hardware. System software is “background” software that helps the computer manage its own internal resources. System software is not a single program. Rather it is a collection of programs, including the following:
  • Operating systems are programs that coordinate computer resources,provide an interface between users and the computer, and run applications.Windows 7 and the Mac OS X are two of the best-known operating systems for today’s microcomputer users. 
  • Utilities perform specific tasks related to managing computer resources.For example, the Windows utility called Disk Defragmenter locates and eliminates unnecessary file fragments and rearranges files and unused disk space to optimize computer operations.
  • Device drivers are specialized programs designed to allow particular input or output devices to communicate with the rest of the computer system.

What is Software

The most computer users always know that software is a program for producing their work result according to the function that they have, but they never focus on what is software? How many types of software? How to repair or install it when they have problem. So in order to get general knowledge of software, we have to start from software. Software is another name for programs. Programs are the instructions that tell the computer how to process data into the form you want. In most cases, the words software and programs are interchangeable.There are two major kinds of software: system software and application software.You can think of application software as the kind you use. Think of system software as the kind the computer uses.

What is Computer

Computer is electronic device that can store and manipulate data. It can store download and processing data. In additional, we can use computer for typing document, sending email on internet. We can do a lot of tasks with computer such manage database, presentation, playing games, watch movies.



Computers Simplified

For beginning computer users, the computer aisles at an electronics store can be quite a mystery, not to mention overwhelming. However, computers really aren't that mysterious. All types of computers consist of two basic parts:

  • Hardware is any part of your computer that has a physical structure, such as the computer monitor or keyboard.
  • Software is any set of instructions that tells the hardware what to do. It is what guides the hardware and tells it how to accomplish each task. Some examples of software are web browsers, games, and word processors such as Microsoft Word.
