Computer software, or just software is a general term used to describe the role that computer programs, procedures and documentation play in a computer system.

The term includes:

  • Application software, such as word processors which perform productive tasks for users.
  • Firmware, which is software programmed resident to electrically programmable memory devices on board mainboards or other types of integrated hardware carriers.
  • Middleware, which controls and co-ordinates distributed systems.
  • System software such as operating systems, which interface with hardware to provide the necessary services for application software.
  • Software testing is a domain dependent of development and programming. Software testing consists of various methods to test and declare a software product fit before it can be launched for use by either an individual or a group.
  • Testware, which is an umbrella term or container term for all utilities and application software that serve in combination for testing a software package but not necessarily may optionally contribute to operational purposes. As such, testware is not a standing configuration but merely a working environment for application software or subsets thereof.

Software includes things such as websites, programs or video games, that are coded by programming languages like C or C++.

"Software" is sometimes used in a broader context to mean anything which is not hardware but which is used with hardware, such as film, tapes and records.

What software can I use with a barcode scanner for our event's registration procedures?
Q. My org will hold its annual convention this coming March. We want to take advantage of the bar codes found in students' IDs for faster registration procedures. We're planning to borrow barcode scanners from our school's IT dept, but they might be unwilling to let us use their software for security purposes, and also licensing purposes. What software can my org use that would be easy to use, complex enough for registration, but not too complex that we won't be able to understand how it works. Thanks!

What photo editing software highlights just certain objects and leaves the others black and white?
Q. I am wanting to purchase professional photo editing software that will help me highlight a certain object in the picture. Example: I want a black and white photo with only the blue eyes showing in color. What software should I buy and it this an easy task to accomplish?
Asked by Littlebit - Fri May 16 08:28:27 2008 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments

A. In PhotoShop, you can select the blue eyes and then go to "Select" and inverse the selection. Now everything but the blue eyes will be selected. You then go under Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation and desaturate everything. That will turn everything to black and white except the eyes. I'll try one and link it here. OK, there's an example for you. There are other ways to achieve this result, but I this worked really fast. You can also change the color -- make everything black and white but give him red eyes.

  • A solid working knowledge of productivity software and other IT tools has become a basic foundation for success in virtually any career. Beyond that, however, I don't think you can overemphasise the importance of having a good background in maths and science.
