3. INTRODUCTION
• An Application is a program or group of
programs to perform useful task beyond the
running of the computer itself.
• Also known as END-USER PROGRAMS.

4. EXAMPLES:
Here we can see different applications:

5. CLASSIFICATION:
The classification of application software are:-
1. INFORMATION WORKER SOFTWARE
2. CONTENT ACESS SOFTWARE
3. MULTIMEDIA SOFTWARE
4. EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE
5. ENTERPRRISE SOFTWARE
6. SIMULATION SOFTWARE
7. PRODUCT ENGINEERING SOFTWARE

6. 1. INFORMATION WORKER SOFTWARE:
• Information worker software lets users create and
manage information, often for individual projects within
a department, in contrast to enterprise management.
• Examples include time management, resource
management, analytical, collaborative and
documentation tools.

7. 2.CONTACT ACCESS SOFTWARE:
• It is used to access content without editing.
• Common examples of contest access software are
web browsers and media player.

8. 3. MULTIMEDIA SOFTWARE:
• They allow users to create and play audio and video files. They are
capable of playing media files. Audio converters, audio players,
burners video encoders are some forms of multimedia software.
• Example of this type of software include Real Player and Media
Player.

9. 4. EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE:
• It is computer software, the primary purpose of which is teaching or
self-learning.
• Examples are MATLAB, LMS, Google Earth and so on.

10. 5. ENTERPRRISE SOFTWARE
• Enterprise Software describes a collection of computer programs with
common business applications, tools for modeling how the entire
organization works, and development tools for building applications unique
to the organization.
Examples:
• AUTOMATED BILLING SYSTEMS.
• PAYMENT PROCESSING.
• EMAIL MARKETING SYSTEMS.
• CONTENT MANAGEMENT.
• CALL CENTER AND CUSTOMER SUPPORT.

11. 6. SIMULATION SOFTWARE
It is based on the process of modeling a real phenomenon with a set
of mathematical formulas. It is, essentially, a program that allows
the user to observe an operation through simulation without actually
performing that operation.
Examples:
• MATLAB
• PSPICE
• Simulink

12. 7. PRODUCT ENGINEERING SOFTWARE:
• These software are used in the design and development of
hardware and software products. Integrated development
environment(IDE) and computer language editing tools falls under
this type of application software. Interestingly, software products are
developed using other software, and software communicate with one
another through software.
• Application programming interfaces which aid the
communication of two or more software, are example of this
application software type.
