Example: The temperature drops
every year between May and
September. Hence the chance for

of time is called rainy season.

Storage


Storage
Storage is the place where data is held in an electromagnetic
or optical form for access by a computer processor.


Storage

Storage is frequently used to mean the devices and data
connected to the computer through input/output operations -
that is, hard disk and tape systems and other forms of storage
that don't include computer memory and other in-computer
storage. For the enterprise, the options for this kind of storage
are of much greater variety and expense than that related to
memory.


Storage

Furthermore storage has been divided into:

1. primary storage, which holds data in memory
(sometimes called random access memory or RAM) and
other "built-in" devices such as the processor's L1 cache,

Operating System Software

The operating system is the
most important program that
runs on a computer. Every
general-purpose computer
must have an operating
system to run other programs.
Operating systems perform
basic tasks, such as
recognizing input from the
keyboard, sending output to
the display screen, keeping
track of files and directories
on the disk, and controlling
peripheral devices such as
disk drives and printers.

on the disk, and controlling
peripheral devices such as
disk drives and printers.

Application Software


Application software, also known as an application or an app, is computer software designed to help the user to perform
speciﬁc tasks. Without appropriate application software a computer is simply a machine without any use. Application
Software is what gives the machine a right to exist and a purpose to be used.



Examples are: Enterprise Software, Accounting Software, Ofﬁce Suites, Graphics Software and Media Players.




Application Software applies the power of a particular computing platform or system software to a particular purpose.
Not all applications are available for all platforms. This is the reason for the competition of different operating systems such
as Android and iPhone or Windows and Apple OS/X.





Applications are not only for entertainment. While applications like iTunes, Angry Birds etc. serve private pleasures Office
Suites aim to help with organizational and documentation work. Enterprise Software then even aims on organizing and
simplifying business workflows and all tasks related to specific businesses.





Applications are not only for entertainment. While applications like iTunes, Angry Birds etc. serve private pleasures Office
Suites aim to help with organizational and documentation work. Enterprise Software then even aims on organizing and
simplifying business workflows and all tasks related to specific businesses.

Enterprise Software is, usually, quite expensive since it supports a whole business. With other software applications the
distribution might differ. There are many free software applications out on the market that try to provide a decent application
coverage. However paid applications are quite often more reliable and have a better support.
