- ICT Systems
- Programming Software
- Compilers-coverts high level programming code such as C++ into code that the computer can execute.
- Debuggers-Helps a programmer to identify 'bugs' in their code.
- Interpreters- similair to a complier, however it converts each line of code sequentially rather than the entire code at once.
- Linkers- a program that takes one or more objects generated by a compiler and combines them into a single executable program.
- Editors-used to edit source code using only text.
- Operating systems
- They monitor and control the running of application software and hardware,
- An operating system e.g. windows is responsible for saving, deleting,renaming, copying,and loading.
- Interactive-controls the actions of a computer where processing is instant.
- Multi-tasking-The majority of OS systems are multi-tasking allowing many processes to be formed at the same time.
- Real-time-Controls the actions of a computer where the processing is almost instant or atleast within a set time frame.
- Online-controls the actions of a computer where internet/online processing takes place.
- Multi-user-Used on a network where more than one user is processing data at the same time.
- User Interface
- Graphical User Interface
- Windows,icons,menus,pointers.
- Takes up alot of memory and storage space.
- Needs high resolution graphics.
- Command line interface
- Quick if you know the commands.
- Doesnt need high resolution graphics
- Usually no way of undoing mistakes.
- Direct Neautral Interface
- Often referred to as brain-computer interface.
- The main application in this software is restoring hearing, eyesight,or physical movement.
- Graphical User Interface
- Application Software
- Designed to enable users to perform specific tasks.
- It includes applications for creating managing information and data media content and communicating with others.
- E.G. word processors e.g. writing letters.
